You know, I like Vince Salandria, but the MIC/CIA are not all-powerful and godlike. They don't always get their way - they usually do, but not always. Look how often they tried to do a preemptive nuclear strike against the USSR to achieve a final victory against Communism. It never happened. The reality of the vast federal behemoth is that it's made up of countless agencies and departments with different agendas - the NSA is even more secretive than the CIA, the ATF is involved in a lot more guns'n'drugs corruption; the FBI spends more time creating crime than investigating it. The CIA and Pentagon have so many employees it's just ridiculous, and most of them don't know what's going on in the office down the hall. I worked in the defense industry for years, and the compartmentalization is amazing; I only knew what my little group was working on. No one talked about what they were doing, and often you didn't know why you were doing it.
We can analyze the circumstantial evidence in this case and get a good picture of what happened. The reason they didn't poison JFK's food or cause his plane to crash or publicize his girlfriends was because they wanted it to look like a Castro/KGB-connected gunman had shot the President down in broad daylight. Those dirty commies. If things had gone right, people would have been screaming for revenge, like "Remember the Maine!"
