U.S. CIA leads exiled Cubans in an attempt to overthrow the new Castro regime. The plot fails and The U. S. and its President, John F. Kennedy
are severely embarrassed.
Cuba, 90 miles from the United States, is now ripe for Communist
cultivation.

WAR IS AN UGLY THING, BUT NOT THE UGLIEST OF THINGS. THE DECAYED AND DEGRADED STATE OF MORAL AND PATRIOTIC FEELING
WHICH THINKS THAT NOTHING IS WORTH WAR IS MUCH WORSE.
(regarding the U.S. Civil War) John Stuart Mill
“THE ONLY THING NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL, IS FOR GOOD MEN TO DO NOTHING.”
(regarding the American Revolution attributed to) Edmund Burke
“WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT, THAT ALL MEN ARECREATED EQUAL, THAT THEY ARE ENDOWED BY THEIR CREATORWITH CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, THAT AMONG THESE ARE
LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS….
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
THATWHENEVER ANY GOVERNMENT BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE TO THESE ENDS, IT IS THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO ALTER OR ABOLISH IT.”

Colonel Bui Tin, formerly of the North Vietnamese General Staff Was interviewed by Stephen Young for an article to appear in the August 3rd 1995 Wall Street Journal.
Q. What about the results (of the 1968 Tet Offensive)?
A: Our losses were staggering and a complete surprise. (General) Giap (North Vietnam’s leading General and war strategist) later told me that Tet had been a military defeat, though we had gained the planned political advantages when Johnson agreed to negotiate and did not run for re-election.
Q. Was the American antiwar movement important to Hanoi's victory?
A. It was essential to our strategy. Every day our leadership would listen to world news over the radio at 9 a.m. to follow the growth of the American antiwar movement. Visits to Hanoi by people like Jane Fonda, and former Attorney General Ramsey Clark … gave us confidence that we should hold on in the face of battlefield reverses. We were elated when Jane Fonda, … said at a press conference that she was ashamed of American actions in the war and that she would struggle along with us.

WAR IS AN UGLY THING, BUT NOT THE UGLIEST OF THINGS. THE DECAYED AND DEGRADED STATE OF MORAL AND PATRIOTIC FEELING
WHICH THINKS THAT NOTHING IS WORTH WAR IS MUCH WORSE.
John Stuart Mill
“THE ONLY THING NECESSARY FOR THE TRIUMPH OF EVIL, IS FOR GOOD MEN TO DO NOTHING.”
Edmund Burke
“WE HOLD THESE TRUTHS TO BE SELF EVIDENT, THAT ALL MEN ARECREATED EQUAL, THAT THEY ARE ENDOWED BY THEIR CREATORWITH CERTAIN UNALIENABLE RIGHTS, THAT AMONG THESE ARE
LIFE, LIBERTY AND THE PURSUIT OF HAPPINESS….THAT WHENEVERANY GOVERNMENT BECOMES DESTRUCTIVE TO THESE ENDS, IT IS
THE RIGHT OF THE PEOPLE TO ALTER OR ABOLISH IT.”
THE DECLARATION OF INDEPENDENCE
