But this is the underlying narrative. Or at least, I think this is what it is all about.
Castro was evil; even worse than Batista. He needed to be taken out. The true Cold Warriors in the USG, and in particular Dulles and the CIA, knew this, and knew the Cuban people would rise up and fight. The BOP invasion would have worked and was fully intended to work had it not been for the half hearted Cold Warriors who were basically chicken. Sure, JFK wanted Castro gone. But he was not up to what was required. And now we have still have Castro, when we could have quickly dispatched him. The Cuban people would have been free. Did Castro have JFK killed like some Cubans think? More likely, the CIA did it. The man was a coward and betrayed his country.
EDIT: Scott, if I am wrong, go ahead and tell me. But please, no more rope-a-dope. It won't work here.
Lauren Johnson, you are the first person to somewhat agree with what I've said, and you are right. About the chicken part, I have given my presentation at Lancer 2013. I said, "if Castro could be assassinated, it would take a woman to do it". I agree with all you say. Like a fool, I opened my big mouth sometime last year, I said that there would be another attempt on Castro this year, I heard about it, I knew about it, and could have been apart of it.
You may have heard about the four that got arrested in Cuba, that's all I'm going to say about that, so don't ask me any questions. I don't know anything. But, you are right Lauren Johnson.
