“Stopping JFK in TX was urgent business such that J. Edgar Hoover helped EL Hunt build a largish FBI/CIA combo outfit with veterans who had lots of chits to call in internationally. Oil barons - who windfalled after JFKS’ hit - chipped in cash and int’l logistics. Imagine what these Texans would have done with bho if they were still around.”
First of all, I fail to see how oil barons would have any real motive to stopping JFK. Second of all, Ion Mihai Pacepa and Humberto Fontova made it VERY clear that the Soviets and/or the Cubans had direct involvement and gave a lot of convincing evidence proving such was the case (and considering Ion Mihai Pacepa, you know, played a direct role at the time in regards to the creation of that op, I’d definitely trust his word on the matter). Heck, even Markus Wolf indicated that Castro’s fingerprints were all over the JFK Assassination.
That paragraph was about the coverup/muddying/obfuscation, not the actual op.
