Until the embittered end, Henry Kissinger was one of the trusted few of a distrusting Richard Nixon. Political Cartoons View All 1273 Images“No doubt my vanity was piqued,” Kissinger later wrote of his expanding influence during Watergate. Two years later, Saigon fell to the communists, leaving a bitter taste among former U.S. allies who blamed Nixon, Kissinger and Congress for abandoning them. “The emigration of Jews from the Soviet Union is not an objective of American foreign policy,” Kissinger tells Nixon. And so they did — the Quaker-born Nixon, the Jewish-born Kissinger, on the floor, Nixon in tears about the unfairness of his fate.

Cea mai veche tentativă a CIA datează din 1960, când un agent i-a oferit 10.000 de dolari pilotului care îl aducea pe Raul Castro înapoi de la Praga la Havana, pentru a „aranja un accident”, potrivit documentelor declasificate. Dar în timp ce Martinez decolase spre Praga, biroul CIA din Havana a primit ordin să anuleze misiunea, fără a-l putea contacta pe pilot. La întoarcere, pilotul a indicat că „nu a avut ocazia să aranjeze un accident după cum s-a discutat”. Fidel Castro, care a luat puterea în 1959, a sfidat 11 preşedinţi americani şi a supravieţuit nenumăratelor comploturi pentru a-l asasina (638 conform Cărţii Recordurilor Guinness), precum şi unei încercări eşuate de a debarca exilaţi cubanezi sprijiniţi de CIA în Golful Porcilor (sudul insulei) în aprilie 1961.
