Re: CIA tried to get Mafia kill Castro
It's no real surprise and only makes things official. I'd love to find those other skeletons Hoover put in many other cupboards. Maybe one day we"ll find out about other famous killings .

Re: CIA tried to get Mafia kill Castro
I agree, nothing new here. For being an organization with a foundation based on secrecy, the CIA has not done too good of a job at that.

Re: CIA tried to get Mafia kill Castro
Just wondering what else is currently going on that the public is not aware of? Torture has been a hot topic in recent months, I always got a chuckle out of Bush's response on the matter. " this country does not torture."

Of course, it was the CIA and the Mob that pegged Kennedy as well (at LBJ's direction)
