ONSIDERATIONS The basic plan requires complete and efficient - support of the military, to include the use of facilities and military cover. (Defense responsibility.) Make full use of the Inter-American Defense Board, the Joint Mexican-U.S. Defense Com~ mission, the Joint Brazil-U. 5S. Defense Come mission, and the Permanent Joint Board for the Defense, Canada-U.S. Additionally, use should be made of extra-hemispheric military organizations.

To dramatize and-encourage the. spirit of resistance. To increase strain on regime and bring daily business toa standstill, by dramatic action all people will note. - TOP SECRET SENSITIVE CONSIDERATIONS | This can be an early sabotage action on the Nicaro Plant by a hit-and-run team based outside Cuba. Destruction of transformers, coolant pumps and towers seems more feasible than blocking the channel, Effect can be supported later by denial of Canadian spare parts. . ~ Effects of CIA program of lubricating oil additive is expected on locomotives in June - July. Much more can be done with fuel contaminants, particularly on jet and diesel fuels. Crews aboard Western tankers offer | real opportunity for more vigorous program. Prime targets for hit-and-run teams based outside Cuba are CMQ TV and the Czech radio transmitter (believed now used to jam U.S. broadcasts), Attacks mounted only when operationally feasible. The G-2 micro-wave net should be dealt with when there are suf-~ ficient assets inside to make sabotage coincide with a critical need, in August-September. This should be a concerted attack, as feasible . in July-August, on power plants at Havana, Santiago, Cinfuegas, Vicente, Santa Clara, - Cuatro Caminos, Matanzas. It is of a type requiring detailed planning and special equip- ment, and can be mounted from outside Cuba. Docld: 322706917 Page 25
