Who shot President Kennedy? It's a sick game of cluedo.

When CIA veteran of pychological warfare, David Atlee Phillips died, he left behind a manuscript indicating that Lee Harvey Oswald was being manipulated by the intelligence community to play a key role in, or to take the blame for, the assassination of Fidel Castro. This is presumably why Oswald, or someone posing as him, visited the Cuban and Russian embassies in Mexico City to manufacture that link and why the CIA has continued to deny any knowledge of the event. Phillips also intimated that their plan to frame Oswald was then turned against them and the same plot used to kill Kennedy. But who turned it? It is possible that Castro, who'd probably learned of the plot, could have been behind it but its far more likely it was a home grown conspiracy, especially given the CIA's symbiotic relationship with the Mafia. US and Cuban mobsters were heavily involved with "the French Connection" through which large quantities of heroin was being imported into America. And in 1963, Robert Kennedy,in his capacity as Attorney General, was getting ever closer to arresting and deporting its ringleaders, notably Carlos Marcello of New Orleans and Santos Trafficante of Tampa, Florida. The problem was these were the same men the CIA had involved in the plotting to kill Castro and men who thought they were doing their patriotic duty by killing commies for Uncle Sam. They were therefore underwhelmed by the treatment they were receiving from the Kennedys. So they had the motive and the logistical know how to carry out the hit and frame Oswald. But their partners in crime, namely in the attempts to kill Castro, were the CIA. So were agents of theirs involved in Kennedy's death. Was David Atlee Phillips being coy when he intimated he didn't know who had turned his plot to kill Castro. Was he involved. Its like a sick game of cluedo. So was it Miss Scarlet of Havana, Colonel Mustard of the CIA or Reverend Green of the Mafia? Read my latest novel on the subject "Play it again Uncle Sam" and go to
