JFK, RFK, and MLK probably had government connections to assignations.

Malcolm X, that wasn’t government directed from what I understand.

“it was a hit ordered by Louis Farrakhan”

I’m not aware of any actual evidence of that. “Cui bono” is not proof.

From Wikipedia:

The “X” was considered a placeholder, used to indicate that Nation of Islam members’ original African family names had been lost. They acknowledged that European surnames were slave names, assigned by the slaveowners in order to mark their ownership. Members of the NOI used the “X” while they were waiting for their Islamic names, which some NOI members received later in their conversions.

Hence, Louis Walcott became Louis X. Elijah Muhammad then replaced his “X” with the “holy name” Farrakhan, which is a corruption of the Arabic word فرقان furqan, which means “The Criterion”. On a very different tone from his calypso songs, he recorded two tunes as Louis X, criticizing racism in A White Man’s Heaven Is a Black Man’s Hell, a record album which was issued on Boston’s A Moslem Sings label in 1960. The summer after Farrakhan’s conversion, Elijah Muhammad stated that all musicians in the NOI had to choose between music and the Nation of Islam.

After nine months of being a registered Muslim in the NOI and a member of Muhammad’s Temple of Islam in Boston, where Malcolm X was the minister, Farrakhan became his assistant minister. Eventually he became the official minister after Elijah Muhammad transferred Malcolm X to Muhammad’s Temple of Islam No. 7 on West 116th St. in Harlem, New York City. Louis X continued to be mentored by Malcolm X, until the latter’s assassination in 1965.

The day that Malcolm X died in Harlem, Farrakhan happened to be in Newark, New Jersey on rotation, 45 minutes away from where Malcolm X was assassinated. After Malcolm X’s death, Elijah Muhammad appointed Farrakhan to the two prominent positions that Malcolm held before being dismissed from the NOI. Farrakhan became the national spokesman/national representative of the NOI and was appointed minister of the influential Harlem Mosque (Temple), where he served until 1975.

Farrakhan made numerous incendiary statements about Malcolm X, contributing to what was called a “climate of vilification.” Three men from a Newark, NOI mosque—Thomas Hagan, Muhammad Abdul Aziz (aka Norman 3X Butler) and Kahlil Islam (aka Thomas 15X Johnson)—were convicted of the killing and served prison sentences.

“In 1934, he disappeared from public record, and Elijah Muhammad succeeded him as leader of the Nation of Islam”

It was a dramatic scene in the movie Ali:

Hollywood doesn’t lie, does it?

60 Minutes said Malcolm X was “misunderstood.” And Black Muslims were convicted as the CBS show concluded.

He was moving away from the nation of islam *spit*,

they killed him for the same reasons the Sanhedrin killed Jesus. Malcolm was woke to their hateful ways and was becoming too big a threat to their bread baskets, their control of the sheep, their lofty positions.

farakahn *spit* was part of the killing

I thought Malcom X was assassinated by his own Muslim Brothers.....................

If the book and film are to be believed, his visit to Mecca where he encountered whites and other races, led him away from Elijah Mohammed's black supremacist views. That wasn't exactly welcome.

On the one hand, this could get interesting, since the FBI almost sertainly knows which set of muslims killed Malcomb X.

On the other hand, Biden will fall all over himself giving them the money as fast as it can be printed. They can route his 10% through is brother since Hunter is on the hot seat at present.

It's too bad his family chose such a lying lowlife to represent them. They must be counting on an out of court settlement. I don't see Crump as a top trial lawyer. He's a shakedown guy.

Wikipedia... sigh.

Farrakhan was directly responsible for the death of Malcolm X.

He admits it - though says it was a matter of his words - that they might have incited the. muder...but he had more motive than anyone in his organization - in fact, he got “promoted” to fill Malcomb X’s shoes.
