They've always hated John F. Kennedy. They finally found a vessel to celebrate his assassination

[AntiFascist]

15. The extreme right-wing hated JFK because...

for one thing, they felt that he had purposely botched the Bay of Pigs invasion that otherwise would have allowed the US to begin to take over Cuba. Establishing a backchannel of communication with Khruschev was considered treason, by their reasoning.

The oil companies wanted access to Cuba's offshore oil. The mafia-controlled gambling industry wanted to re-establish Cuba's casino and gaming industry. Even the sugar industry (namely Pepsico with Joan Crawford on the Board at the time) wanted access to Cuba's sugar industry. Whether or not there indeed was a broad conspiracy leading to his assassination, the far right did want him out of the picture.

Now we have the biggest, grandest, PIG of them all leaching off of the US and as much of the world's resources that he can grab, JFK's legacy be damned!
