It does indeed: "The plan called for CIA
<
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Central_Intelligence_Agency> or other
operatives to kill innocent people and commit acts of terrorism in U.S.
cities to create public support for a war against Castro
<
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fidel_Castro>-led Cuba
<
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cuba>.". Consider that sentence was
written by the person who made the article, so there is no need to take
that sentence as evidence of what the plan was. The /actual plan/,
(which is an actual document, and not just some offhand statement made
by someone on the internet), clearly depicts using deception but no
actual killing. :P
