Conspiracy Unlimited with Richard Sarrett.

Dallas and Howard Hunt hit back at Kennedy in this famous article in Fortune magazine.

0:13.3

We are instead of admitting that they had tried to trick Kennedy, they tried to blame the

0:17.5

failure for the operation on him by saying that he had canceled the so-called D-Day

0:23.3

airstrikes, and that had blown the operation.

0:26.1

But there was no such thing as a D-Day airstrikes, that if there were going to be any D-Day airstrikes,

0:32.2

that is, the dawn of the invasion, jet fighters were going to come in and knock out Castro's

0:36.8

Air Force.

1:09.2

And this is what then inflamed both the upper classes and the Cuban exiles in the believing

1:15.4

that it was really Kennedy who was at fault for this.

1:17.7

And as I noted at the end of the chapter, I don't think it's a coincidence that some
