This morning on KTTH during the Mike Seigal show,(Seattle), Jack Anderson, remember him, was interviewed. He claimed Castro had the mob hit Kennedy and LBJ knew it.

Castro supposedly told the mob he would pay them market value for the casino's and businesses in cash, lost when the Revolution liberated the Island from those evil capitalists.

This was a response for Kennedy trying to eliminate him. It was also stated the LBJ Administration feared atomic weapon retaliation from Kruschev if the US took out the Island dictator.

The Warren Commission was manipulated and neutered by design by LBJ and J. Edgar Hoover. This is Anderson's story and he's sticking to it.

Speaking of Castro and the Cubans, the following information was related to me by a fellow freeper:

Remember E. Howard Hunt, mysterious CIA guy in the Nixon White House who hooked Liddy up with the Cubans for the Watergate break-in?

Mark Lane, in Plausible Denial, discloses a slander trial brought by E. Howard Hunt against The Liberty Lobby's magazine. He won the first round. The Liberty Lobby employed Lane to defend the magazine. Usually the defense to slander is malice. Lane used the defense of "absolute truth," that the magazine's assertion that E. Howard Hunt was in Dallas and involved with the assassination was provably true.

The jury (Miami) found in favor of The Liberty Lobby, which means they found the article to be true. The forewoman of the jury spoke extensively with reporters after the verdict. The story was buried. She raised a big fuss and a short spot was put on the air late at night. That story was more buried than the infamous Intelligence Committee memo.

The original article is printed in the back of Plausible Denial.

The assassination cannot be fully understood without an understanding of the Cuban refugees. Not only were they livid about JFK pulling the support from the freedom fighters at the last minute in the Bay of Pigs, but during the summer of 1963 JFK was shutting down the training camps for anti-Castro Cubans that proliferated around the South. This totally infuriated them. Lee Harvey Oswald had some connections to these camps and to both sides of the Castro issue.

A big problem with that is Malcom Wallace's print was found in the sniper's nest. He was an LBJ hitman that eliminated an ag official for LBJ since LBJ committed fraud in the cotton markets while in Texas and Marshall was close to charging LBJ with it. I don't think Castro had anything to do with it, nor the Soviet Union.

Not long after LBJ died, I heard Cronkite say on the tube that LBJ had told him that Castro had JFK killed. That actually makes a lot of sense, since we now know that JFK was going after Castro at the time.

It also makes perfect sense that of all the countries in the world that we've made peace with, Cuba isn't one of them.

A friend of mine who worked in the late 1970's declassifying documents, said the scuttlebutt was that Castro had JFK killed by Oswald (a known Castro supporter), and we did indeed cover it up to 1) deny a "victory" to the communists, and 2) to prevent a demand in the US for nuclear war to retaliate.

The scuttlebutt continues that this was the reason Kruschev was forced from office. Because we demanded it, because he knew of Castro's effort.

Keeping all this in mind, it's awfully easy to see where people get the stupid idea that it was a "coup" within the US government to kill JFK. Since there certianly was a coverup. It's just that the motives are totally different than what the idiot Oliver Stones of the world would like it to be.
