The 600 Lives of Fidel Castro

from Conspiracy Theories · host Spotify Studios

The CIA has been proven responsible for at least eight plots against Castro’s life.

But if there were reportedly over 600 attempts on Castro’s life during his reign, just how many were the CIA actually responsible for?
