I will make mistakes in my videos, the hope is is that if I provide transparency to my research process and sources, people can make up their own minds after the fact.
Btw, the name IMPERIAL just comes from when I used to play Skyrim - it definitely is not an endorsement of imperialism lmao.

Why America Hired the Mafia to Kill Castro
In August 1960 the Central Intelligence Agency embarked on a mission to eliminate the Cuban Premier, Fidel Castro, by any means necessary. In their eyes, that meant hiring some of America's most prolific criminals and tasking them with assassinating him. This is that story.
The visuals in this video were largely inspired by the HITMAN video game series. As a big fan of the games, I hope that this stands as a worthy tribute to their unique and compelling style.

Needless to say, Wikipedia isn't exactly a very thorough or extensive source. Considering its cultural clout and fame, I thought that this was a particularl...

"Between 9.6 to 11.4 percent of the budget went to national defense" The US spends 13.3 percent of their budget on defense instead of improving people's lives as well.
its nice better then nk
What i am wondering is, Where is abu khaled? They did not even try to find him, while he was one of the masterminds behind this incident.
Bro AMERICA DONT PLAY
This could be a good movie called The Great Escape or sum like that
You wanna know what else they did to try and kill castro? Everyting. Over 600 failed assassination attempts on the dude's life and castro died of old age.
Damn wtf did I do ?
May I ask for the soundtrack u played at 14:49? Sounds soo good
Nicotine doesn't really do a whole lot once tore addicted. It's also not effective for 'drowning the horrors of war' like, at all.
What is this palestine? I can't find it on the map... is it a terror group?
... may Allah forgive me for uttering this word ....
Imagine getting locked up and calling cia to bail you out on some Franklin saint type shit 😭
The brits really go arround the world setting countries on fire and ethnically cleansing people and moving others in and making sure to start wars that will last for centuries......they are like that bully kid from your school but if he was an Isis terrorist and as Einstein's and he loves to smell his own farts qnd pretended to civilize the planet although the most he ever invented was tasteless "food" and love island...and ways to kill and loot...and he is good at lying.
That one guy who got caught
Very interesting that a US intelligence based aircraft is capable of scrambling civilian aircraft communcations. Im no aviation expert but im pretty sure thats not legal
Long Live Cuba! A country actually willing to stand up against american imperialism!
This story is proof that not all German camps or Germans were some evil monsters. Their camps had bedding food water and those guys were smiling in some photos. They were given furniture every time it went missing.
Correction:The Pyramids are in El Giza, not in Cairo, Giza is a different governate from the Cairo Governate too, not just a different city

In modern day war, cigarettes kills you, literally.
As a southern Irish catholic i found your video and explanation to be completely spot on and accurately narrated.
One of those times that it's proven that RUclips needs to cut that Age-restricted video BS out. Get a life Neal.
Aren’t Albanians mostly twinks?
New-clee-ar. There is ONE “u” in “nuclear”.
Yo bud, saw your last video, do the tunnel escape f4om Holzminden next 👍
Dudes saw that their first tunnel failed, and a bunch of their buddies got killed because of it, and then said "screw it let's make another one". Heck yeah.
and its just okay for a goverment to kill some other country leader? this is literally war and invasion
Next level graphics😊
The CIA is so cheap. Imagine assissinating of Castro's stature for 150k😂😂😂
THEY DIDN'T WASTE THE AID MONEY FROM AMBULAS AND AIRLINES AND THE MONEY THAT CAME BY MONEY TRANSFER. THEY SAID ABOUT THE APO ISSUE AND THEY CHANGE THE SUBJECT. THEY EARN 7500 TL FROM A BABY FROM ENTUBI, THEY EARN 27500 TL FROM AN ADULT. IT'S CHEAPER THAN WATER. DON'T BELIEVE THE HUMANITY OF TURKEY. THEY WON'T PEE ON AN INJURED FINGER.
Is there any video on the Cowra escape? Sincerely, an Australian who never knew about it
Yknow they usually say 3rd times the charm, especially if you are *the* world's premier clandestine operations agency, but after *638* attempts on his life over 40 years the only thing that succeeded in killing Castro was old age 🤣
16:24 HELP-
I highly suggest people read the book Mafia Spies by Thomas Maier
Hey, uh, this seems like straight up Russian propaganda at some parts
Fun fact, they did an extensive algorithm that looked at every aspect of the JFK shooting and it thinks the mafia was involved with rogue CIA agents. The mafia was fed up with JFK’s crime crackdown and I bet it wasn’t even top heads in CIA, just some rouge agents who found JFK a nuisance and threat to a lot of black book operations cause he kept denying all of them. You don’t need to have a lot of power to concoct a plot, just the right people, and then have those loose ends tied. I feel like at the end of the day, the only people left alive were those rouge agents.
Franco is a GOAT
Straight propaganda, in fact he actually Fidel was put there by the mafia, specially Francis Sturgis & Fabio Grobat, do your research.
Sorry why is this a re-upload? I feel cheated...
Intro has changed completely! I took the original down after only 3 or so days because I wasn't happy with it so fewer that 50k people saw it in the end - didn't feel right leaving it down

KOSOVO IS SERBIA
🎶 Secret Tunnel! Secret Tunnel!🎶
Fun fact, the CIA also committed a terrorist attack on a Cuban airplane, Lockerbie style (flight 455). But remember kids, the US are the good guys, lol.
Another GSG9 W
Since Bizet's Carmen was a manufacturer of cigarettes, and her suitor was a soldier, I would say that cigarettes were fully established long before WWI.
I think he brings this up in the beginning.

This could be a movie! I would call it: "The great escape" 🤔
Gotta say watching it at 1.25x is more watchable..the pauses and slow talking, I got a lot of internet to surf buddy let’s get to the point
