Of course, we can jump the gun and discuss what the implications would be if Otto Skorzeny were QJ/WIN.
Correct me if I'm wrong, but that would mean Skorzeny was working face to face with Robert Kennedy for a period of time as part of ZR/RIFLE. Having read one of Skorzeny's memoirs and also a Skorzeny biography, I personally don't think Skorzeny was all that great of a planner or an assassin. I don't think he assassinated anyone while working for Hitler. He was so careful that he was able to "keep his nose clean" during the Third Reich. That meant he was put on trial by the US after the War and was exonerated.
So you would have to wonder, if he kept clean under Hitler, would he expose himself to murder charges in 1963?
Skorzeny's main asset was that he was terrific at promoting his "brand". Also, his main skill in operational matters was being able to think on his feet and go to plan B and plan C in real time, sometimes inventing his own Plans B and C.
That would not be a good fit for planning the JFK assassination, since it did not involve a small team of hit-men with a leader on the ground who had to improvise. It could have, but as far as we know, it didn't.
If Skorzeny worked for the CIA, his reputation and his "brand" would have been what the CIA was after. They, too, mostly relied upon their "brand" and didn't accomplish much in the 1950's or 1960's, in my opinion (except for the U-2 program).

Skyhorse CIA? Who knows if anyone there is? They print fiction books, story tellers, or books from authors who have some notoriety, because those books sell. God forbid you as an author give them a book filled with questions, they don't want their readers to think, they prefer the readers to believe what's being said, and taken as the 'gospel truth'.
Some folks have the nerve to come right out and say what they think, and that will sell, but that information cannot be backed by anything other than their word, so, it's got to be the truth right? Others have proof, but ask questions, draw the readers into the story so the research doesn't stop at the gospel truth, they passed up what I freely gave away, and this person wanted to represent me as an agent? I got the impression he was just another bandwagon jumper, that is the biggest turn off for me, anyways, Skyhorse? I suppose they wouldn't know the truth if it slapped them in the face.
You have NO idea how many folks argued with me over the phone number prefix in the state of Florida in 1963. I even posted Frank's phone number just as it was listed in my father's address book when they first met, of course at that time Frank was going by Forini, but nevertheless the proof was there, his seven digit number just as it was in 1963.
No need to go into the rest of it, as it is, many wouldn't believe me, Skyhorse didn't get it, and as for the bandwagon jumpers, lets just say, I'm glad it didn't work out, all they cared about was money!
