[This is a chapter from my newly released book ‘The Empire on Which the Black Sun Never Set: the Birth of International Fascism and Anglo-American Foreign Policy.’ For further details on different formats and how to purchase click here.] The audio version of this chapter is available here
the precise timeline presented throughout the article gives a good overview of the various actions, reactions and their interrelatedness. also Fletcher Prouty's work is very valuable: great interview (2 hrs long; 1994) - https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=AkJqraXqKLU&t=6s
I’m always amazed that for every Dulles or Kissinger that grows old, somehow there’s a new crop of ruthless schemers to fill in behind them with more psyops and assassinations.
Kinda like when inner city gang members are shooting each other up. You’d like to think when the evil are dead, you’d finally get some peace.
Wow, Cynthia, I can't thank you enough for your excellent writing -- I was a teen when JFK was killed, then my entire college experience was defined by the Vietnam War, and as a naive history major I went on to spend my like discovering all the deception and lack of accountability in our compromised government. Now you have added to my understanding of the callous and violent going's on during those decades that clearly continued and became entrenched in the world ever since. What echos strongly is how much the power brokers desperately want to cover the tracks of their wrongdoings. We must continue to raise our voices together against their stranglehold, the only way to bring them down. Thank you!
Really enjoyed this article. Nevertheless I remain a little confused over JFK's story over Cuba.. do you have an article or chapter on your book about the mongoose operation? And what was Kennedy's position on the US embargo on Cuba?
Just wondering if you have any material elaborating on these issues.
I don't doubt for a second that JFK was murdered by the CIA.
Thank you for giving us a glimpse into your magnificent opus. ✊🏼
Hi Daniel, I do not have any information on the mongoose operation or the US embargo on Cuba in this book volume, however, it does look like these subjects will be discussed in Volume 2 of this book series. I have also made public a chapter discussing other aspects of Cuban relations to JFK along with its connections to his assassination. You can read the chapter here: https://cynthiachung.substack.com/cp/141475601. You can check out the book on amazon where they will give you a glimpse into the chapter headings, which I think mark out clearly what sort of subjects will be discussed in the book. https://www.amazon.com/gp/product/B0BLG5T32L/ref=ox_sc_act_title_1?smid=A1Y53T3O3Q25L8&psc=1
Thank you so much for your time. Really appreciate the comprehensive reply. It seems I have lots of reading to do... Just started exploring your substack page a few days ago and I'm super excited about the work you're doing, as well as Matt's.
There is a darker, weirder thread running through all this. E. Howard Hunt, a Bay of Pigs CIA participant, and self-identified "backbencher" for "The Big Event" in Dallas 11-22-1963, then later Nixon "Plumbers" and Watergate break-in ringleader, had first called a lawyer friend of his after the Watergate arrests. While Douglas Caddy was not the primary defense lawyer, years later he had lunch with his friend Hunt and learning something surprising...

unfortunately.... it really is up to us (through exposure) not to have 'them' repeat everything bad. when we let them, it's over.
Excellent historical analysis. Thanks for sharing this!
