Russian woman didn't answer the key question: Did the Cubans with the tactical nuclear weapons have the power to use them without Soviet authorization? Anybody think the Soviets would have used them? Anybody think either side would have launched a general nuclear war over the Cuban issues? Anybody think either side could have stumbled into it through "miscalculation?"

The lesson of the Cuban crisis, so clearly stated, appears to have been not just lost but reversed, by current U.S.& Western policy which now has not just threatened, but has put in situ an arsenal of nuclear & other armaments on Russian borders! What response do we, can we expect from Russia? Should we be surprised if Russia should respond in the manner which U.S did in 1964? It is incredible and impossible to conceive a more perverse scenario and appears to confirm that. "we" have chosen to disregard any beneit of this "historical lesson" which this program now perversely celebrates! Can "we" please wake up and see what we now face rather than to self congratulate ourselves in our darkest ignorance....! We know what JFK would say to us if he now could speak, but we have chosen not to listen! Shameful. Tim O Sullivan Ireland
