Brothers: The Hidden History of the Kennedy Years Quotes

“Former CIA agent and Watergate convict, Howard Hunt suggested several prominent CIA officials involved in the plot to assassinate JFK, including Richard Helms—the top agency’s top man. The other CIA suspects Hunt named in his book were William Harvey and David Morales, a “cold-blooded assassin,” Hunt observed, who like his boss Harvey, was “possibly completely amoral.” While vigorously proclaiming his own innocence, Hunt speculated that Harvey—“a strange character hiding a mass of hidden aggression”—might have played the lead role in organizing the assassination, hiring Mafia sharpshooters “to administer the magic bullet” in Dallas. Hunt even went so far as to raise the possibility that Harvey was acting on orders from Vice President, Lyndon Johnson.”
