Murder of Bobby Kennedy by Sirham Bishara Sirhan
Reader comment on item: Faces of American Islam[: Muslim Immigrants]
Submitted by David S. Levine (United States), Aug 15, 2002 at 11:00
In the paragraph on violent incidents perpetrated by Muslims in the US you neglected to mention the murder of Bobby Kennedy by Sirham Bishara Sirhan. Yes, he was a Christian, but he was an Arab raised in the violent language of the militant Arab and Muslim mileu. His nefarious deed therefore belongs with the others you correctly enumerated whether the degenerate family of RFK objects or not!
