In March 1962, the Joint Chiefs of Staff put a document on Robert McNamara's desk. It proposed a series of false-flag attacks against the United States — sunk ships, civilian terror campaigns in Miami and Washington, a faked civilian airliner shoot-down — to manufacture public support for invading Cuba. Every member of the Joint Chiefs signed it. Kennedy rejected it within days. The document stayed buried for thirty-five years.
