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.Lauren: are you saying that Dulles was a coward, or Kennedy was? And who was chicken, Dulles and Co. or the military? Sorry, I'm not following you.
