Improve it please. Nikita Khrushchev AS HE STATED WENT INTO CUBA AS A RESULT OF PRESIDENT KENNEDY'S "COMING OFF AS WEAK" DURING THEIR "GENEVA SUMMIT" IT MAY WELL HAVE BEEN SO KENNEDY WAS TAKING A MIXTURE OF DRUGS... INCLUDING "SPEED" FACT BEING HE BROUGHT WITH HIM FAMED "DR, FEEL_GOOD"! HE WAS BEING INJECTED!
THIS HELPED LEAD TO Nikita Khrushchev BECOMING "ADVENTUROUS" AS THE USSR WAS FAIRLY WELL "SURROUNDED BY U.S. MISSILES AND WHAT THE THEN PREMIER SAW, WHAT HE THOUGHT WAS AN OPENING... HE STARTED SENDING IN THE MISSILES TO CUBA..... WITH A OH SO WELCOMING CUBAN LEADER CASTRO!
WHEN THE U.S. FOUND HOW FAR EVENTS HAD GONE, WELL IT WAS ALREADY "CRUNCH TIME"! KENNEDY (NOT KNOWN AS A "GREAT DIPLOMAT" SET UP A WHITE HOUSE UNIT CALLED X-COM! THINGS BECAME VERY "TOUCH AND GO"! KENNEDY WAS NOT HURT BY THE FACT THAT THE U.S. HAD A LARGE MISSILE ADVANTAGE! STILL IF A WAR WAS SET OFF IT WOULD HAVE BEEN DISASTROUS FINALLY AFTER A "NAVAL QUARANTINE" BUT REALLY TENSIONS AND "PULLING BACK FROM THE BRINK" CAME AS WE MADE A "SECRET DEAL..... NEVER TO INVADE CUBA, OR HELP ANYONE ELSE" ALSO WE GAVE AWAY, IN A MOVE THAT WAS TO BE "KEPT SECRET" JUPIER MISSLES IN TURKEY IN ABOUT 6 MONTHS, IF THE USSR PULLED OUT ALL MISSLES IN CUBA! SO BASICALLY IT WAS A TRADE, BUT BOTH COUNTRIES WERE ALLOWED TO LIVE ON!!
AN INTERESTING AND INDEED SCARY CAVEAT IN A SHOW CALLED "FOG OF WAR" WITH PRES. KENNEDY'S SECREAITARY OF DEFENCE ROBERT S. McNAMMAR, HE DESCUSED THE CRISIS...... MOST WERE KNOWN FACTS, BUT THREE! ONE THE USSR HAD "CONVENTIAL NUCLEAR WEAPONS THESE IN THEMESELVE IF WE HAD TRIED, A SUGJESTED AIR AND TROOP INVASIONOF Cuba, WOULD HAVE SET OFF WW3! TWO CASTRO, EVEN KNOWING IT WOULD BE THE END OF CUBA,,,AND MUCH OF THE WORLD, BEGGED THE SOVIET PRIMIER TO "LAUNCH THE MISSLES" #3 WITH SO MANY PEOPLE CREDITING KENNEDY FOR "HIS GREAT JOB" HE SAID, "WE WERE SAVD,BY PURE LUCK" GULP!! DON
