Kennedy vs. Deep State refers to the perceived or alleged conflict between the Kennedy family, particularly John F. Kennedy and Robert F. Kennedy, and the so-called "Deep State," a term used to describe a supposed entrenched elite that wields significant political power and influence behind the scenes. The phrase has been used in political discourse to suggest that the Kennedy family's policies and actions were opposed by a shadowy network of bureaucrats, intelligence agencies, and other powerful entities. The term "Deep State" does not have a direct translation in Hebrew, but it can be loosely rendered as המדינה העמוקה (HaMedina HaAmuka). In Spanish, it is often translated as el estado profundo, and in French as l'État profond. The concept gained prominence in the context of Cold War politics and conspiracy theories, with some proponents arguing that the Kennedys' efforts to challenge the military-industrial complex and intelligence agencies led to their assassinations. However, these claims are widely disputed and lack substantial evidence. The phrase continues to be used in contemporary political discussions, often to critique perceived power structures and institutional resistance to change.
