New book: JFK plots hatched after Bay of Pigs fiasco; Was Castro involved?

A lot of people say Castro - who recently died at the age of 90 - was a tyrant, and to many, he was. But there is a history that many forget or don't know.

My new book, Death of the Rising Sun: A Search for Truth in the John F. Kennedy Assassination, shows how the Eisenhower and Kennedy administrations' campaigns to kill Castro and invade Cuba to undermine Castro through the Bay of Pigs fiasco in the early 1960s backfired into plots to kill Kennedy that eventually succeeded.

Some even say Castro might have sent agents or people he captured to join the plots, though I didn't find any direct evidence of that. But it stands to reason that when one country tries multiple times to kill the leader of a nearby country, that targeted leader might not just sit around and do nothing about the plots. He might tell some captured operatives to go join a plot against the leader of the country that is targeting him, or spend the rest of your life in my prison.

The book also goes into many other events that a lot of people don't know, such as the plots in Chicago and Florida shortly before the one in Dallas succeeded. And how a Klansman helped save and prolong JFK's life at least one time. The latter is relevant to the racial polarization occurring today, reminding us again not to just based on appearance.

The 367-page book is available on Amazon Kindle, and is slated to be out in print form in a few months.
