1:07:01
...who else wants Castro dead?
1:07:03
Was it the Mafia
Or money people?

1:07:06
So we put together
Track 2.

1:07:22
First assassination attempt
was, uh, in '60.

1:07:26
Uh, just before the election.
Before?

1:07:27
Eisenhower approved that?
Yeah.

1:07:31
Well, he didn't veto it.
1:07:33
I ran the
White House side...

1:07:36
...and, uh, the mob contact
was Johnny Roselli.

1:07:39
One of the C.I.A. guys
was this jackass...

1:07:42
Howard Hunt.
1:07:44
Jesus.
1:07:46
Yeah. Not just Howard Hunt,
but Frank Sturgis...

1:07:50
...and all those other Cubans.
1:07:54
All of them in Watergate...
1:07:57
Uh, they're all involved
in Cuba.

1:08:06
Yeah, Hunt reported
to my military aide.

1:08:09
I don't know how much
Hunt knows, or, or the Cubans...

1:08:12
...but you never know.
1:08:16
So you
wanted Castro dead.

1:08:18
Every body wanted
Castro dead.

1:08:20
You know, if Hunt
and the others are C.I.A...

1:08:25
...why don't we just dump this
back in the C.I.A.'s lap...

1:08:28
...let Dick Helms
take the fall?

1:08:30
Because.
1:08:33
Because Helms knows,
knows too much.

1:08:37
If there's anyone in this country
who knows more than me...

1:08:40
...it's Hoover and Helms, and you
don't fuck with Dick Helms, period.

1:08:43
All right.
1:08:46
But why, if Kennedy
was so clean in all this...

1:08:49
...didn't he cancel Track 2?
Because he didn't even know about it.

1:08:54
The C.I.A.,
uh, never told him.

1:08:56
They just kept it going.
1:08:58
It had a life of its own
like it was some, uh...
