Castro kept Cuba in line and Kennedy thought cutting off that head would liberate Cuba.
And at least as often as not that tends to be naive. If you really want change...actual change...you have to do the full monty: all-out war, an-all out political campaign, and all-out reconstruction effort, etc. The certainty that killing a tyrant would solve the problem should be thought of as just as silly as the notion that killing the secretary of defense would bring down the entire military.
