| Summary: | The assassination of President Kennedy by Lee Harvey Oswald, the American Marine who had defected to the Soviet Union and four years later committed the crime of the century, was an extremely rare Cold War episode in which both sides were vitally interested in hiding the truth. In Programmed to Kill, former Lt. Gen. Ion Mihai Pacepa, the highest intelligence official ever to defect from the Soviet bloc, reveals most of the facts covered up by the Kremlin and addresses the myriad of questions left unanswered by the Warren Commission, the House Select Committee on Assassinations, and the numerous books written on this subject. |
