So we all know the story of how JFK sent his aide to stock up on 1000 Cubans the night before the embargo. So I'm reading this book about what happened to those cigars.
Supposedly, this Cuban guy whose business is hurting cause of the embargo gets pissed and decides to raise some money by stealing and selling JFK's Cuban cigars to this congressman's father-in-law. He says that it will all be easily done due to creation of diversion.
Turns out, the diversion is the assissination. the theory is that there were some Cubans that were really pissed about how the embargo was hurting them and their businesses so they got Oswald to cap JFK while they stole the Cubans from Camelot. Oswald messed up the plan and so they got Jack Ruby to make sure Oswald didn't talk.
My life is just boring enough for this book to be interesting. But all this has come out in the first 30 pages. I'm interested to see what the rest of the book is going to do.
Oh well...had the time...figured I'd post.
