The protesters were near the Chicago lakefront, five miles away from the International Amphitheater where the convention was held. 699898@blogcritics.org Wed, 5 Mar 2008 11:28:57 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/29/112829.php#comment-699161 It has never been clearly established as to why Sirhan Sirhan shot Kennedy but many believe he felt he had been betrayed by Kennedy's support for Israel in the 1967 six day war. However "Kennedy Must Die" entries were found in Sirhan's diary before Kennedy's support for Israel was publicly known, so there were likely other reasons. 699161@blogcritics.org Sun, 2 Mar 2008 13:22:29 EST http://blogcritics.org/archives/2008/02/29/112829.php#comment-699158 Exactly. this program lacks many substantive facts about the who, what, where's and whys of anything.
