The Invasion of Cuba: Never the Intention of JFK Hit Sponsors

[Gary Craig]

In Hosty's book, he talks about attack planes being sent toward Cuba at the same time Oswald was being arrested, but then they were recalled. This certainly sounds like some of the plotters were standing on go ready to hit Cuba, but other people higher up put a stop to it.

It may very well be that the Castro link was a diversion to facilitate the cover-up, or maybe it was how they recruited some people in the military/CIA/Cuban exile/Organized crime communities to participate. I just don't know. But they went to a lot of trouble to frame Oswald, when they could have framed some garden-variety non-political nut with a history of mental problems.

What is his evidence for that?

The aim seems to shift from Cuba to Viet Nam once LBJ takes over.
