... [Bugliosi's book] would come in handy if you run out of toilet paper.

I think Mark Twain said something about your ilk in this context.

The invasion plan was largely Kennedy's. He was intrigued by limited military strikes or operations.

Quote
The man overseeing plans for the Bay of Pigs Invasion was Richard M. Bissell Jr., the CIA's Deputy Director for Plans (DDP). He assembled a number of other agents to aid him in the plot, many of whom had worked on the 1954 Guatemalan coup six years before; these included David Philips, Gerry Droller and E. Howard Hunt.

What Mark Twain said about your ilk?

That no matter how many facts you confront them with (as Bugliosi does par excellence in Reclaiming History), brainwashed true-believers are gonna go right on a-believin' the garbage they believe in ... or words to that effect.

"Truth [e.g., the first shot occured about one second before Zapruder resumed filming at Z-133, CE399 went clear through both JFK and JBC, and JFK's violent head and upper torso movement was caused by a combination of a catastrophic neuromuscular reaction while sitting and wearing a rigid back corset, plus a Newton's Third Law "jet effect" when the right side of his brain was violently expelled through a palm-sized exit hole in the top-right area of his scull] is stranger than fiction, but it is because fiction is obliged to stick to possibilities; truth isn't."

Consider me a temporary reincarnation of Samuel Clemens, sounding, above, two seeming implausibilities of the big, muddy, turgid river known as JFK Assassination Conspiracy Theories, a deluge of neverending ca-ca if there ever was one.
