(Study of Kennedy as president) 44:32 (Using new material) 45:31 5 “new myths” (Based on Soviet material) 48:01 “Fred thinks Soviets put missiles as they saw Kennedy as weak and I think the opposite” 49:12 Kennedy was right 51:15 Reason for Khrushchev’s decision 52:50 Soviets missiles in Cuba were not THAT critical to America 56:20 Why Kennedy HAD to remove missiles in Cuba 59:20 US did know about extent of Cuban weapons eventually 1:00:45 Kennedy was getting very bad advice 1:01:45 Kennedy’s opinion on invasion
1:00:20 He says we never saw nuclear warheads for tactical nukes or big missiles. Then he says a quarantine would have been ineffective because the missiles were already there. But that contradicts what he said previously -- that we never saw any nuclear warheads.
US intelligence was woefully lacking on what was going on in Cuba. They dramatically under estimated how many Soviet troops were there (40,000) as well as the numbers and variety of nuclear weaponry. Cuba, just 90 miles from Miami bristled with Russian military... far more than what Khruschev needed for some sort of nuclear parity. Both the military of the USA and USSR were I'll informed and out of control.
Whoever is operating the PA system does not know what they are doing. One would think Columbia University in the year 2012 would have someone competent on staff
The Russians freaked out after they watched The Ten Commandments affects in 1956 and thought of the powerfull manipulation the world was being subjected to and thought of the secret weapons the USA had stached along with supercomputers so they decided to go all in with the Cuba missiles placement! 😂😂😂USA had to share the world dominion with the Russians hence KENNEDY was assessinated next year by the New World Order in front of and broadcasted to the entire world 😂😂😂
Nina Kruscheva seems to have underlying personal biases that affect her thoughts/presentation. If she had a different last name I doubt she would be listened to.

Nina Khrushcheva brought some badly needed Soviet perspectives to an otherwise conspicously one sided table
