That was the early days of the cold war. The cold war intensified under Kennedy.

JFK lied about a "missile gap" during the 1960 campaign. And he lost that election but they stole it from Nixon.

Nixon lost the presidential debate, not photogenic on TV.

The Pentagon Seriously Contemplated Nuking China in 1958

Newly leaked documents show that US officials in 1958 cavalierly planned a nuclear strike on China over a handful of disputed islands. As Washington once more stokes tensions with China, it’s a reminder of the callous recklessness at the heart of US foreign policy.

According to a new Congressional Budget Office report, we're set to spend well over a half a trillion dollars over the next decade on nuclear weapons. Yet we're somehow told that Medicare for All is too expensive.

Nothings changed. Lunatics are still running the country and have been for decades.

That is correct. Biden is not the first President to steal an election. The Democrats in Chicago made sure that JFK had all the votes he needed to carry the state.

JFK was a terrible weak President. The only thing he got right was tax cuts. The Moon Bats won't eve admit that he was the one that got us into Vietnam.

"Plans in play" is a catchword phrase but what does it mean? Of course the U.S. had plans to use nuclear weapons if push came to shove after Truman's botched war in Korea. It was MacArthur who recommended a pre-emptive strike against China using nuclear weapons. JFK's incredible failed attempt to raise a Cuban invasion army ultimately brought us to devcon 2 for the only (thank God) time in history. The media loved MacArthur and JFK so they both emerged as heroes.

I really liked that observation the other day by Catherine Fitts about why the MIC has switched which party they use as a puppet for the global elites.

It just shows how little the corporate parties can be trusted.

Do left wing idiots really think that (leaked) alleged military plans constitute intent? Every nation had "plans". Thank God few of them were ever implemented.

It seems few Americans are aware of this, though it’s evident.
