12/11/59: Colonel JC King, CIA Western Hemisphere Division chief, sent a memo to CIA Director Allen Dulles arguing that there existed in Cuba a "far-left dictatorship which if allowed to remain will encourage similar actions against US holdings in other Latin American countries."
Dulles established Operation 40 because of the memo. There was originally 40 agents involved in the operation. Later this was expanded to 70 agents. The group was presided over by Richard Nixon. Tracy Barnes became operating officer of what was also called the Cuban Task Force.
First meeting chaired by Tracy Barnes took place in his office January 18th, 1960, & was attended by David Atlee Phillips, E. Howard Hunt, Jack Esterline, and Frank Bender.
Also in 1960, according to Fabian Escalante, Sr officer of Cuban Dept of State Security (G-2), Richard Nixon recruited an "important group of businessmen headed by Texas oilmen George Bush Sr & Jack Crichton, to gather necessary funds for the operation".
That suggests agents were involved in freelance work. It is known that at this time that George Bush & Jack Crichton were involved in covert right-wing activities.
In 1990 The Common Cause magazine argued that: "The CIA put millionaire & agent George Bush in charge of recruiting exiled Cubans for the CIA’s invading army; Bush was working with another Texan oil magnate, Jack Crichton, who helped him in terms of the invasion."
This story was linked to the release of "a memorandum in that context addressed to FBI chief J. Edward Hoover and signed November 1963, which reads: Mr. George Bush of the CIA" .
Reinaldo Taladrid and Lazaro Baredo claim that in 1959 George Bush was asked “to cooperate in funding the nascent anti-Castro groups that the CIA decided to create”. The man “assigned to him for his new mission” was Féliz Rodríguez.
Virtually all of the field agents of Operation 40 were Cubans. This included Antonio Veciana, Luis Posada, Orlando Bosch, Rafael Quintero, Roland Masferrer, Eladio del Valle, Guillermo Novo, Rafael Villaverde, Virgilio Gonzalez, Carlos Bringuier, Eugenio Martinez, Antonio Cuesta,
Hermino Diaz Garcia, Barry Seal, Felix Rodriguez, Ricardo Morales Navarrete, Juan Manuel Salvat, Isidro Borjas, Virgilio Paz, Jose Dionisio Suarez, Felipe Rivero, Gaspar Jimenez Escobedo, Nazario Sargent, Pedro Luis Diaz Lanz, Jose Basulto & Paulino Sierra

Age Discrimination Act of 1975, patients can't be excluded, denied, have services limited, or be discriminated against on the basis of age.

Yet younger people & women are still discriminated against by Drs, NPs, & hospitals when it comes to heart symptoms.
I know 2 women who dropped over dead in the past couple years from Cardiac Arrest, one in her 40s, & another in her 50s, both obviously with rhythym problems. Another woman in her 80s is suffering from vascular dementia because her Dr. never ordered any type of heart testing.
As to young people, I know of two young men in their 20s who had strokes, and both probably had rhythym issues which were ignored. My son has a heart rhythym problem, & only got proper treatment because we refused to take no for an answer.

I'm back at the hospital with my son. They discharged him yesterday after❤️ablation #4. He woke us at 3am & said his pulse was 180 for 2 hours & had severe chest pain. Didn't wait for an ambulance. Walked him a block to the ER. He's stable in the cardiac unit.
He's going to be ok. We're at the top heart hospital in the US. They're taking very good care of him. Thanks for the prayers!
Top heart hospital is not living up to it's reputation. On call cardiologist & 2 EP docs said he needs an echo, but still not done. "Maybe" tomorrow we were just told. Nurse said they do old people having trouble breathing 1st. My son says he's having trouble breathing.

Why is Israel claiming "someone" dumped oil into the Mediterranean which is washing up on their shores, as well as into Lebanon?

timesofisrael.com/tarred-and-shu…
It's a known fact that Israel has drilling platforms in the Mediterranean.

Why has Israel slapped a gag order on the probe of the massive oil spill in the Mediterranean, which they claim was caused by a "passing ship".

Yeah, right...
