    Wasn’t there also an attempt with a grenade launcher or something like that as well? Hard to keep track of US sponsored coups/assassinations in latin America but I remember there being some close call with a grenade launcher, perhaps it was of the one’s on Castro or Chavez.

      That sounds familiar. With Castro, the CIA basically tried everything and failed, to the point where it got pretty cartoonish: exploding cigars, female assassins whom Fidel ended up seducing, etc.
