The comment on White House coffee is extremely actually really accurate. Kennedy really hated White House coffee because it was even weaker than what he was issued in the Navy during WW2.

There’s actually a bit more to it than that. Kennedy was so unwilling to give in that he ordered an invasion of Cuba to remove the missiles by force, which made Khrushchev place nuclear submarines in Cuban waters in retaliation. The night before the invasion, two of the three officers required to allow their nuclear weapons to be fired, but one of the officers, thank God, held out, and on the day of the invasion, Kennedy finally gave in

Actually 1 more quick thing that is a bit off in this episode is that Kennedy didn’t agree publicly to the exchange of the nukes in Cuba for the nukes in turkey so much to save his reputation, more because if he did, he would be giving up the safety of a nato member for the U.S’s safety completely ruining the point of nato

True plus if Kennedy wouldnt have placed those nukes on the turkish border pointing straight at Russia thus provoking Russia plus the failed invasion of Russia's commie buddy Cuba the crisis could have averted. Thank goodness the russian officer aboard the sub had sense enough and defied his commander in firing the missile.
@yann1ck666

One more thing to add. The reason two of the three officers wanted to launch their nuclear weapons, was because a US ship was dropping signalling depth charges on their sub. Basically weak weapons that did little harm, only to tell the ship to come to the surface. The two officers who voted to launch them thought they were under actual attack. They hadn't had contact with Moscow for months, so for all they knew, nuclear war was already happening. And if that's what you think, and you're under attack, the gut reaction is to take them down with you.

​@spikedglue2803 Except Turkey was an instigator itself and was used as a weapon against the USSR in many horrific ways including being the generator to radical Islamic behavior that was randomly birthed in the 80s to fight Soviets. You can try simplifying it as such, but at the end of the day. Turkey by no means is an innocent bystander and while other nations outright denied putting missiles in their land, Turkey was all too glad.

My biggest issue is that mexico walked into american soil and detained americans armed which is an act of war against the us without any consequences but we can bomb someone half way across the world who is not a threat to the us in the slightest violating presidential authority, international law, and attacking a country we occupy illegally just because our ally in the area wanted it regardless of the debt, law, and retaliation danger to our soldiers. What does america gain by not making mexico pay for it's act of war and committing an act of war on a sovereign nation just to assassinate a military official of a country that talks big on behalf of an ally?

Bit of a weird video. In Ireland we learned a much more nuanced history where the conflict was basically the result of unbridled power plays and brinkmanship that was brought too far by both sides. The panicked last minute de escalation was always made clear and a result of JFK belatedly coming to his senses. Hence the installation of the ‘red phone’ or simply a direct link between both superpowers. Feel like Americans were taught a very different history.

If I remember correctly: - Kennedy had told Khrushchev that he would not tolerate Soviet missiles in Cuba, so he felt he had to make good on this threat - Soviet long range missiles of the time were fairly slow and inaccurate, meaning that from their homeland they couldn’t easily threaten the USA - Soviet short to medium range missiles however were able to launch faster and were more accurate so getting those in range of America was highly significant - Direct Soviet presence in Cuba, much like with Soviet missiles in Cuba, was a long term threat because if they somehow got a naval advantage the could block trade going out of the Mississippi River basin via the Gulf of Mexico (though this also had a parallel to Turkey in that the Turks could block Soviet trade going out of the Don and Dnieper river basins through the Black Sea)

Gravity_Falls_Up what year was that? When I was in highschool we kept reading American history books on World war 1 and 2 where it basically spelt it out as though Americans saved the day most of the time. This was older texts from the 70s, 80s and 90s. But we also read from our own, British and German accounts that pretty much showed us how warped America was with their own history. America didn't save the wars btw. They just came in at the end because the Japanese attacked them. If they hadn't participated we still would have won. And maybe a few bombs wouldn't have gone off...

Kewlausgirl if the USA hadn't joined ww1 then the german reich would have taken the soviet oil fields ending their resource crisis allowing them to fuel their tanks and airforce then when they capitulated the soviets no one would be able to stop their dominance as they would have simply invaded the UK by boat pus if japan had bombed 2 weeks earlier and also bombed the other islands the US would have had to move plains from the west coast to Hawaii rather than owning all of the tiny strategically important islands

While this video isn’t entirely wrong it is somewhat misleading. The U.S. did not know that they had the superior nuclear stockpile over the Soviets until well after the crisis. JFK, while not wanting to appear weak, was not the cause of the reaction to missiles being put in Cuba. JFK willingly released this information to the public after it was first discovered and it was then due to public fear and outcry over the communists having nukes only 90 miles away from Florida that JFK felt the need to establish what historically has been labeled a quarantine (a legal blockade but IMO pretty much the same). Additionally, Krushchev wasn’t entirely reasonable, for the first week of the two week crisis, commanding Soviet officers had full authority to launch a nuclear weapon at the U.S. In fact there is a historically famous close call where 2/3 soviet officers opted to nuke the U.S. with only one refusing. It wasn’t until Krushchev spoke with Castro who was advocating for the nuking of the U.S. did Krushchev become willing to compromise. So yea, while it’s not as one sided as the U.S. originally stated, the Soviets were also part of the aggression contrary to how this video portrays the USSR. It takes two tango... and to cause a global nuclear catastrophe.

Let's not forget how cruel Russia was when the illegally invaded and occupied Poland, Cechcloslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and more nations. BTW don't forget how Stalin murdered 40,000 Polish officers when Russia was Hitlers Ally. Look how long Russia enslaved Eastern Europe and other nations. The nations that surround Russia do not trust Russia because of past histroy. After seizing and invading the Ukraine Russia sent a message to former nations invaded and occupied by Russia that Mr. Putin and the Russian governement cannot be trusted and that nations that border Russia are rearming and joining NATO!

Bla, bla, bla. First of Putin is not the dictator, he is a typical representative of his band. Crimea was not occupied, but annexxed. You can go there and ask people(they are mostly Russians), learn something about this region. About international law - nobody gives a shit about these laws, and the biggest shit maker is the U.S. Were those bombarding of Yugoslavia according to international law? Also IRAQ? I do not speak about any of invasions of U.S army around the world. Yes, Soviet Army also put in some contingent in Afghanistan, Vietnam and etc. But it always was according to this law(btw, you can put in your army with permission of legitimate government) and they call them back after. Btw, how many times the U.S claimed that they will call back their army from Afghanistan? Poland, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, Bulgaria and more nations in eastern Europe. Do you know something about the Warsaw Pact? This is the same kind of thing like NATO, and ask yourself if some of the countries in NATO block will organize something which is not appropriate in the eyes of major countries in this block, what would happen then? Stalin personally killed them? You do not know any shit about this case. The attention to this case was raised by Nazi Germany representative(Rudolf-Christoph Freiherr von Gersdorff) in 1943. Today the Putin and his band published very ridiculous documents about this case, but also the forwarded to polish side archive documents about this case, and then these documents were never published. Only this ridiculous documents were published, overall it is about 5 documents, half of them is a reference to another half. One of them is handwritten notification to Khrushov, where described that polish officers were killed. But there are many mistakes in this document, first one is that there is used such abbreviation as ЦК КПСС(the central committee of the communist party of soviet union), but in 1940 there was no ЦК КПСС organization, at this time it was ЦК ВКП(б). The ЦК КПСС appears in the 1950s. So Khrushov was well-known stalinist, and after his death, he was well-known antistalinist. Just like that. Yeah, very funny, then I am not surprised that he has had the secret deal with U.S establishment. And there are many things like some photos published by Josef Gebels department of propaganda, where you can see that the bullet shell which has typical bimetallic corrosion. Which is interesting, cause that type of bullet shell was widely used in Germany, but not in the Soviet Union. Also, there were about 9 camps for polish officers in the Soviet Union in the 1930s. And surprisingly, the killed officers were from 3-4 camps which were situated in places which later were occupied by Nazis. The officers and soldier from other camps were survived and the known general Anderson's army was compiled with them. So, therefore, the Soviet NKVD and Stalin himself were very powerful fellows, cause they can see very precisely the future. They precisely did know which territory will be occupied by Nazis, used their bullet shells, and for some reason they left all the documents of these officers in the place(ID cards and etc. were buried with the corpse). And there was one victim was Marian Janiak, who was Polish officer and died in 1983 in Poznan. His son was born in 1948, then after he moved to Switzerland and became president of Swiss National Council. The Soviet Bolsheviks were very mighty, they could kill you and make you a living zombie. All that you have write in your comment is brainwashing material, that you will never think critically. Good luck, have fun.

Real quick I'm seeing the comments going on about how this was an American causes near catastrophe, and taken largely out of context and inflated due to missing info due to the limited time this video has. Yes we placed missiles in Turkey and yes this did eventually lead to the events of Cuban Missile Crisis, and an earlier failed invasion of "Bay of Pigs" However the lot of us are seemingly convinced that this was unwarranted and unprovoked. The reason the missiles were placed in Turkey was due to (unsurprisingly) political instability and a slight (but short lived) lead in Russia's nuclear armament. Eventually sightings of Nuclear Silos were showing as active, and this caused a DEFCON3 status. NATO took notice and started getting missile silos active (but not on standby) in case of attack. Turkey, the closest NATO Nation that wasn't Germany had no Nuclear armament and believed that they would likely be targeted first for a start of a ground invasion. They asked NATO members for supply and America responded and aided in construction of the silos, and getting them armed. They remained in American control however because Turkey had also been facing Politacal instability about the Nukes, (later caused a few civil wars that were our fault,) and wanted to make sure no shots were fired prematurely. The Soviets took notice of this and alerted Kennedy that they needed to get them out. And Kennedy had replied that they were not offensive, but in aid of Turkey. The Soviets didn't argue and saw this as valid and decided that they should be able to do the same in Cuba (not in aggression, but showing that they basically can do the same thing we can, and not to take them lightly) This as said led to the missile crisis, which of course caused large amounts of alarm, further scales by inflation's in the media. It wasn't Russia that they were afraid of (launching that is) but that Cuba would launch instead, same thoughts of Turkey doing the same. This led to a series of options 1.) We let the missiles through (little chance of war) 2) start a blockade(medium, but low chance of war) 3) Invade Cuba and remove the missiles personally (would likely start a war) Kennedy chose option 2. He also personally notified the Navy not to shoot. As this would also mean war. - if there are any further questions from any folks who actually made their way through this comments, feel free to ask. But please. Try to keep it calm. (There is also a few things I didn't add in the comment, because it would further add to the length of the post, so feel free to ask for some tidbits.)

@@fyrun4838 Well I should state I am Turkish, I should say I only know two things that can be considered riots between 60 to 65. And both of them were military based attempts to overthrow government and people who pulled the coup in 1960. The riot in 65 were mine workers movement in province of Zonguldak. Most riots were around 1968. My father was a part of this same movement which started with student movements, than became movements against presence of any US military and peaked against 6th fleet coming to the bosphorus. Also living in Turkey, I only base my knowledge on approx.%4-5 of the whole media, this is something you learn living here, you can check "free press" in Turkey for more information :) Second of all, Adnan Menderes who was couped in 1961 was the furthest thing you can get from communism. He was the advocator for privatisation of back than a state run production industry. Also he pretty much banned all unions, Does that sound communist? His party was based on an alliance between land owners and newly budding industrial bourgeoise. The reason for coup can be summed up by 3 factors. First Menderes was weighing heavily in favor of feudal landowners. That was pulling Turkey which has a strategic importance for, well, almost anything. Which halted growth of capitalism and ties US monopolies have with Turkish industries. Second, Menders policies of oppression became so over the top, a social movement by mainly workers was brewing, and you can see how thats a cause for panic for our imperialist overlords. Third, there are some unconfirmed information about his dealings with Warsaw Pact, which by then under Kruşçev (sorry can't really spell it in English) started the restoration of capitalism by turning soviets to a state which can be called "socio-imperialist". But as I said, the last one is pretty much unconfirmed as far as I know.

Robert MacNamara, in the documentary The Fog of War, talked about how Kennedy actually thought no deal was possible, but Tommy Thompson, who know Khrushchev personally, convinced him that the Soviets would agree to the bargain that was ultimately struck. If Thompson hadn't been in the room when Kennedy was making the decisions, we might have had nuclear war with the Soviet Union.

@kirant

Both sides actually did. On October 21 1961, Roswell Gilpatric specifically noted that there was no missile gap and that the USA had the superior nuclear weapons capacity (and was authorized by Kennedy to disclose this fact). The FBI had determined this was true while Eisenhower was still President of the USA. Kennedy was even called in by Eisenhower to let him know that his election campaign rhetoric about a perceived missile gap was wrong (but that he couldn't state anything publicly without jeopardizing U-2 missions). However, Kennedy kept repeating the claims. The Soviets were full aware of their deficits too. In fact, the Presidium of the Soviet Union put immense pressure on Khrushchev to address the issue. The placement of mid-range missiles in Italy and Turkey helped matters little and pushed him to look at Cuba as a possible staging site for Soviet missiles.
@mattc7939
@mattc7939 5 жыл бұрын
Hello, actually no this is not true. The idea of a "missile gap" and "bomber gap" were widely held notions by the American public and JFK during his election, but they were wrong and JFK knew this. Here is why: According to Robert McNamara, Kennedy was leaked the inflated US Air Force estimates by Senator Stuart Symington, the former Secretary of the Air Force. Unaware that the report was misleading, Kennedy used the numbers in the document and based some of his 1960 election campaign platform on the Republicans being "weak on defense." JFK vowed to close the "missile gap" So...based on this misinformation (to JFK's credit he didn't know it was misinformation)...JFK ran an election as a communism hardliner, and vowed to close the "missile gap" and "bomber gap" if elected President. But it wasn't true... Beginning with the collection of photo-intelligence by U-2 overflights of the Soviet Union in 1956, the Eisenhower administration had increasingly-hard evidence that claims of any strategic weapons favoring the Soviets were false. The CIA placed the number of ICBMs to be closer to a dozen. Continued sporadic flights failed to turn up any evidence of additional missiles. The CIA later found out that the USSR only had 4 ICBMs during the election. So...Eisenhower is watching JFK win an election (against his Vice President at the time Richard Nixon) based on the false premise that the USSR was winning... In an attempt to defuse the situation, Eisenhower arranged for Kennedy and Lyndon Johnson to be apprised of the information, first with a meeting by the Joint Chiefs of Staff, then Strategic Air Command, and finally with the Director of the CIA, Allen Dulles, on 11th July 1960. But (after this revelation) Kennedy continued to use the same rhetoric, which modern historians have debated as likely being so useful to the campaign that he was willing to ignore the truth. After this point Eisenhower could've probably upset the JFK election with the truth...but Eisenhower refused to refute the claims publicly for fear that public disclosure would jeopardize the secret U-2 flights. Consequently, Eisenhower was frustrated by what he conclusively knew to be Kennedy's erroneous claims that the United States was behind the USSR in its number of missiles After JFK was elected he chose to place Jupiter missiles in Turkey solely to look "tough on communism" as he had promised the American people. In short...these same Jupiter missiles were the reason the USSR chose to place a missile in Cuba. It's safe to say, that if JFK had never been elected, Jupiter missiles would've never been placed in Turkey and the USSR would've never attempted to place missiles in Cuba, the Cuban missile crisis would've never happened. As a parting shot...sometimes you have to look history as it is (not how you want it to be) if you're going to learn anything from it. This isn't revisionist history, it's all completely true. I'm an active duty military professor in the US military teaching at the Naval Postgraduate School in Monterey, CA. I'm generally conservative in my political views. So I have no reason to revise history to make the USA look bad. This is simply what happened. Just because we are the "good guys" doesn't mean we don't make mistakes. We should learn from our own history so we can improve over time.
