[Octafish]

Gee. It sounds like a broken record. These warmongering turds in the SovietCIA or AmericanKGB ro whatever they are wanted war so bad over Cuba...even BEFORE Kennedy was in office.

When the Bay of Pigs fiasco was going down, the BFEE, I mean the the cabinet, the Congress, the Pentagon, the CIA all wanted war, JFK said, "No."

When the Cuban Missile Crisis was going down, the cabinet, the Congress, the Pentagon, the CIA all wanted war, JFK said, "No."

When the Joint Chiefs brought in Operation NORTHWOODS where the idea was to start a terror campaign in America and blame it on Fidel, JFK said, "No." and fired the JCS Chairman.

When JFK was assassinated, the BFEE blamed Oswald, who wanted to flee to Cuba, according to the set up in Mexico City.

DOCUMENTS REVEAL CIA'S DULLES WANTED
CUBA TO ASK FOR SOVIET BLOC ARMS IN 1959

BRITISH CRITICIZED U.S. "EFFERVESCENCE
AND VIOLENT FEELINGS" ABOUT CUBA

Cuba expected 6,000 men in the invasion force as of January 1961

Havana, Cuba: British documents released on the first day of an historic conference on the Bay of Pigs show that CIA Director Allen Dulles hoped that British refusal to sell military items to Cuba would force the Cuban government to request arms from the Soviet bloc, providing a pretext for U.S. intervention.

The conference - involving former officials of the Kennedy Administration, the CIA, members of Brigade 2506, and Cuban government and military officials - convened today in Havana to begin three days of discussion on one of the most infamous episodes of the Cold War - the April 1961 invasion at the Bay of Pigs.

In an unprecedented declassification, the Cuban government has also declassified some 480 pages of records relating to the invasion, including intelligence reports on U.S. preparations and Fidel Castro's directives during the battle - records that "shed substantial light on Cuba's ability to repel the invasion," according to National Security Archive Senior Analyst Peter Kornbluh.  The National Security Archive at George Washington University is co-sponsoring the event along with the University of Havana and several Cuban government agencies.

One of the Cuban documents - a January 1961 report on the CIA's clandestine training camps in Central America and Florida - shows that Cuban intelligence analysts estimated there were as many as 6,000 CIA "mercenaries" training at a camp in Guatemala, overestimating by far the agency's 1,400-man invasion force.
