Shortly after the failed Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba in 1961, a
top CIA official told an investigative commission that the Soviet
Union had somehow learned the exact date of the amphibious
landing in advance, according to a newly declassified version of
the commission's final report.
Moreover, the CIA apparently had known of the leak to the
Soviets--and went ahead with the invasion anyway.
In an effort to oust Fidel Castro, the CIA organized and trained
a force of about 1,400 Cuban exiles and launched the invasion on
April 17, 1961. Castro's soldiers easily repelled the landing
force in less than 72 hours, killing 200 rebels and capturing
1,197 others in what became one of the worst foreign policy
blunders of the Cold War. >>
There are those who felt that the CIA actions were highly suspect in the JFK
assination matter. The reason supposedly was that they hated him for his
actions after the Bay of Pigs disaster. Perhaps they hated him long before
that and engineered the mess. Certainly there was a lot of strange behavior
by CIA chiefs and at least one or two highly placed individuals who were
sending our so called "secrets" to the Russians at that time. Perhaps the
CIA isn't as inept as they pretend to be. Perhaps they do all this funny
stuff on purpose. Come to think of it; it's would be darned difficult to be
as inept as they seem to be. Wonder what Mr. Cohen has on his "personal"
computer? Prudy
