i was watching tv last night about a documentary about KGB and CIA spying... and it turns out that pope john paul I may o been assassinared... several reasons occured which were interesting

1. [Mafia] he has started an investigation into the vatican bank, which was into underhanded dealings

2. [cia] he was planning to re-tie connections with russia, meeting with high powered catholic ministers of russia. Also coming from poland, [i believe, an iron curtain country] he often made trips there, with speeches. Also, he is the most poweful leader in the world... 1 billion people follow him, if he was to speak out against democracy, it would hurt america deeply.

obviously, two is a better reason i believe, but the cia i feel are less likely to murder a pope than a greedy mob boss, even though he may be catholic.

any other opinions?

I beleive the second opinion.
I wouldn't put anything past the CIA or any government agency (they'll probably assasinate me now for saying that O_o)

The CIA does do a lot of things like that, that nobody will ever find out about... The Pope was extremely old and suffered from parkinsons disease... I think they'd be worried more about the new Pope... A former Nazi Youth... He's been involved in Anti-semitism before... and also a follower of a horrible dictatorship... He'd be more likely to be assassinated by us...

yeah.. also all evidence that could of been found was disposed of... no autopsy, papers and cups in his room were taken... and the, uhhh... people who cremate people were called, suspitiusly early... in fact, it is said that they would of have to of been called 15 mins before he was oficially found dead.

*gasp* It's almost like the Tupac case!

Body was lost?
Buried the next day?
The 7 Theory?

God, I hate this crap!

It's kind of scary if you think about, you become a super-famous political or religious figure and you do something wrong, your dead before you know it.

the solution: don't become a well known powerful figure
now i have some other business to take care of
< plants terrorist evidence in the home of bill gates >

I dont like to comment, cos CIA are watching... There always watching.. And FBI, and NCIS... Expecially NCIS...

The CIA and FBI have bigger fish to fry... they don't care about little stuff...

Tupac is alive in Argentina... I just know it..

Yes, I hear he rents a room with Elvis. They fight crime together.

Anywho... firstly, John Paul I was Italian. He was Pope for only 33 days. The Wikipedia entry on him is very informative.

Personally, I'd believe the first theory as much as the second. The Church was not happy with John Paul I, and there was a lot of controversy surrounding his death and how there was no autopsy because he was embalmed the day after he died. The CIA might have done it... but why would the Church act the way they did.

Now the joke, bit dated but still funny:
You know, the CIA had a great plan to assassinate Sadam Hussein, they'd used it before to great effect... the only problem was they couldn't convince him to come to Dallas.

LMAO!! Thats a good one...

I bet the church got rid of him.. So they wouldn't offend any of the Catholics living in Capitalist Countries... (My own theory)

Now.. for a Chuck Norris joke..

Chuck Norris once traveled back in time to stop the J.F.K assassination... He caught all 3 bullets with his beard... J.F.K's head exploded out of shear amazement... (thought i'd add that)

lol, those are good

coincidently enough, i was watching the same show about the cold war and they did a special on JFK assassination... it was mad to watch... how weird i thought it was when one theory involved south vietnam-which supported a mafia assassination... something to do with exporting opium and cocaine... but yeah cia seems much more likely... Lee harvey oswald was a pro marksman, probably hired by cia

we could of used him for sadam

Did you's hear that they have finaly got the italian mob boss in custidy?

nah... really? how what when?

I heard it last week somtime. They have been looking for him for several years now . I wonder whos the mob boss now...

probably some1 else... or there's a war over it

Of cource its some1 else .
Remember when fred flinstone was the mob boss?

Crazy i-talians (yes, i-talians), theyll blow themselves up.
Was the russian mob the KGB?

no... KGB is the russian CIA

Whats the russian mob.. or are they the russian mob...

But is the KGB gone now that they arnt a soviet nation?

EDIT : I mean comunist.

Yeah... They are attempting a Capitolist country, like the US... But, Putin.. the prime minister, or president err whatever, doesn't want to use Checks and Balances, so therefor, its basically a dictatorship with an open economy, much like China...

The Russian mob is nasty.. They cut peoples fingers off and stuff, probably the sickest mob guys there are..
