IS THERE ACURSE IN THE KENNEDY’S FAMILY

Untimely death and tragedies stake some families like a Psycho Serial Killer!
The Kennedy family in America is known for the tragic and untimely death of their sons that was stunned by the cover headline of the international news magazine NEWSWEEK (January 12th 1998 edition) “the KENNEDY’S CURSE”. The cover story was about the untimely and tragic death of Michael Kennedy. The magazine report that “Most Americans, hearing the news that Bobby’s star-crossed son Michael had died in skinning accident on new year eve, may have felt that there is a curse on the house of Kennedy…. .When John Kennedy was assassinated in November 1960, his brother Robert spent a sleepless night in the Lincoln bedroom. A friend walking past his door had RFK cry out “why God?” trying to make sense of Dallas, Bobby began reading the ancient Greeks, especially Aeschylus and Sophocles. He read and re-read the sagas of Greek gods and mortals where pride led them to tempt fate. He identified particularly with Agamemnon; the great warrior who was hot blooded. It seemed as if he could feel personally the curse on the house of ATREUS”.
From investigations with the tragic and untimely deaths of the Kennedy’s you will be amazed at the manner of tragedies that befell the family.

A special report on the family was titled: “AGAIN: A KENNEDY FAMILY TRAGEDY”, The magazine reporter declared on page 32 or that edition, ''A curse seems to hunt the (Kennedy’s)family, a black cloud that has brought on them a remarkable string of Kennedy tragedies for more than half a century.''
There are times in life when even the most conservative person will agree that certain events are more than a mere coincidence.
Constant tragedies in a family are far from being incidental occurrence.
