Theres so many weird things about it and i dont think ive ever heard a solid explanation for everything.
I don’t remember specifics, but I’ve heard pretty convincing cases that the Cuban expats and New Orleans mob was involved. Like you said though, they could have been a cog in the wheel. Also, in Matt’s Gladio history episode, he talks about how the CIA used organized crime in Europe to launder money through and get jobs done. So it would make sense that they had deep ties with the mob here too.
