David, between Fletcher Prouty and Greg Burnham, McGeorge Bundy looks good for blocking the final B-26 raid on Castro's three armed T-33 jets, as well as authoring the NSAM 273 draft bridge document.
The fact that McGeorge Bundy was present at this first meeting is significant because it was Bundy who made the telephone call to Gen Cabell, Deputy Director of Central Intelligence at 9:30 P.M. the evening before the landing of the Brigade in Cuba, that ordered cancellation of the crucial air strike from Nicaragua, as confirmed by the Cuban Study Group's unanimous report. That Report cites that cancellation as "probably the most serious" of its finding of "Immediate Causes of Failure of the Operation Zapata."

Perhaps the most powerful evidence indicating that select Senior Administration Officials and Senior Military personnel may have had foreknowledge of the plot to assassinate the 35th President of the United States, John Fitzgerald Kennedy, is found in the DRAFT of National Security Action Memorandum (NSAM) Number 273. There are several smoking guns, but the one that initially stands out as the most obvious is the date of the DRAFT, which was subsequently signed by McGeorge Bundy, Special Assistant to the President for National Security. The DRAFT was written and dated November 21st, 1963 less than 24 hours before the assassination. It was ostensibly the result of the meetings that took place the previous day at the Honolulu Conference.

A chilling observation by the late Senator Daniel Patrick Moynihan in Vanity Fair presents a post-assassination McGeorge Bundy:
We went directly to the President's office which was torn apart with new carpets being put down in his office and the cabinet room. As if a new President were to take office. No one about save Chuck Daly. McGeorge Bundy appeared. Icy. Ralph Dungan came in smoking a pipe, quizzical, as if unconcerned. Then Sorensen. The three together in the door of the hallway that leads to the Cabinet room area. Dead silent. Someone said "It's over."

McGeorge's brother William was married to Mary Acheson daughter of Dean Acheson whom Donald Gibson indicates played a major role in planting the idea of the commission in the mind of the 36[SUP]th[/SUP] president.
I was always fascinated by the tale that Dean Acheson's omission of Korea from the stated U.S. defense perimeter in 1950 greenlighted Kim Il-Sung's attack (which already had the blessing of Stalin and Mao).
That one might play in the Orwellian quadrilateral then dally in assassination aftermath, itself the result of one's familyis this not how the game is played.
Not to insist that any of these are self-initiators. More likely, attuned through breeding and schooling, and long association, to the pipes, the pipes a-calling.
Regarding Dillon, Donald Gibson indicates he, with Henry Cabot Lodge, John Foster Dulles, and Dean Acheson, formed an obstacle to Kennedy's foreign policy. They took the side of French imperialism in Algeria and Indochina.
In the latter arena, it is fastidiously avoided that the president lost the debate.
On November 22, 1963.
Bundy and Dillon, part of the successful establishment following what Zelikow and May referred to as the shooting by one objecting to Kennedy's hostile policy toward Castro's Cuba.
