continued-part two-Thats why it occured.Kruschev wanted Kennedy to back down and remove the missiles in turkey that were installed in the previous administration and through back channel deals they had to make with each other since both governments were sabotoging peace talks with them,Kennedy agreed to remove the missiles from turkey and not invade cuba. You didnt read the part where Nixon said in later years had he been president back then,he would have gone in and bombed cuba just like the military wanted Jfk to do but he wisely resisted them.Knowing how extremely immature Nixon was back then trying to get Eisenhower to nuke Laos which he wisely resisted,its being foolish and ignorant to say that whe wouldnt have done just what he said he would have done back then in 62 which is do what the military wanted Kennedy to do.Dick Nixon would have bombed cuba like they wanted Jfk to do and he would have started world war 3.get with the program.
