That mistake left available to the Communist conspiracy an attractive and strategic base in the Western Hemisphere and. at the same time. gave to the Communist conspirators a logical excuse to make it their business to take advantage of the excuse which we had ineptly given them to enter the Western Hemisphere and reinforce and fortify their new possession in the West. Once this sequence of events had run its fatal course. the irresolution at the Bay of Pigs became a truly momentous error. To have tried and failed at the Bay of Pigs has brought upon us that unfortunate situation which cannot now be remedied by a patriotic band of Cuban refugees returning to their homeland under arms. It is clear that concerted economic and diplomatic action is initially necessary. I personally advocate a complete investigation by a joint committee of the Congress of our entire Cuban policy from the rise of Castro as a rebel leader until the present time.
