Why not? Let's just cut right to the chase shall we? The president of the United States knew well in advance the only way to have beaten Castro was an all out invasion, Kennedy says NO American military will be used, but to appease the Brigade he tells the CIA he will approve "air-cover," and the only airstrike that I'm aware of that was called off, in this case, delayed, the same air-cover Hunt, Col. Prouty, and others have mentioned, which Kennedy had delayed, but not entirely called off, why? Well, for starters it's much easier to tell the Russians our A4s did a fly by looking for survivors, then to say they were going to provide air-cover, because that's what air-cover meant right Jim? And so, our military never really got directly involved, which is a load of crap because several of the A4s were riddled with bullet holes upon there landing abroad the U.S.S. Essex.
Now, Jim, can you counter anything I posted to be false? Can you give me your best argument where I'm wrong?
