I literally remember watching this speech on television with my mom. I was 9 years old. I think it made an impact on me at that young age because of how concerned my mother was as she was listening to this message.
@Norberto Fontanez We were very aware of the danger, even his children. We had drills in school, similar to a fire drill except that instead of leaving the building, we needed to hide under our desks, or go out into the hallways, and face the walls.

@Norberto Fontanez I appreciate your service to the American people. I remember the 93 attack, but can’t recall any details. I will definitely be looking for more information about it. I was a 23yr old union carpenter installing cabinets on the 65th floor of the U.S. Bank building in downtown L.A…when a radio bulletin came through explaining what was happening on September 11th. I immediately vomited and all workers were evacuated because there was talk about an unaccounted for jet that should’ve already landed at L.A.X. I was sad and angry for a long time. I don’t understand how people have forgotten that we’re all human and desire common interests
I thought same thing and I don't know who or what Kennedy was maybe a part of or not but he looks like he was maybe the only and the first and probably the only president who actually cared about war today we have so many advanced missiles and bombs that you just kill the whole world with one bomb that's it they're nobody worry about anything we're just going to go extinct now 😂🔚🤯 🤔
We the people in the United States need another President like JFK but, unfortunately it doesn’t look like we will ever have another great President like that anytime soon.
JFK went back on his promise. Given by his father.. For the mob to be able to balance things. And expanding to Cuba with gambling and narcotics. And organised crime. Which would have eased the pressure off the USA. Which is why it irritated the mob i would think. To get into softer drugs. And less deadly forms of organised crime. And pleasure. To balance the situation. And to educate people as well on the other side of the law. A balanced progressive economy. And we need to see all of the Kennedy clan. In the White House. In the next decade. Visiting. Working and legislating.
President Kennedy is loved by others as well. I live in the UK and probably would never have been born, but for the cool heads of JFK and his administration, especially his brother Robert, who was key in talks with the Soviets. Bless you President Kennedy.. A man of peace!! 🙏🏼❤️
Think JFK was actually a MAGA Republican, peace through strength, most of the time. but the demoncrat/marxist machine was/is treasonously corrupt: 98% of their medias, fbi doj cia marxist judge's lawyers,... and / but JFK was too young. A great speech never the less. He and his brother actually got away with murder, thus lowering decency in America.
@@Jeremy-y1t not really… they came to an agreement..Soviet missiles were removed from Cuba and in return the U.S. removed their missiles in turkey…if only our leaders were as smart now…
Didn't even blink when he said -"“regard any nuclear missile launched from Cuba against any nation in the Western Hemisphere as an attack by the Soviet Union on the United States, requiring a full retaliatory response against the Soviet Union.”
@@scottodonnell7121 Thanks. I’ll keep an eye out for it. I liked _’Thirteen Days’_ but if there’s a different slant on it, I’d like to see it. There are some good books on it too. Serhii Plokhii’s has written one recently.
I was about 11 years old - and I too remember the concern of my mom and dad, but they didn't want to alarm the kids. BUT we all went to church, prayed for peace and mom, dad, and went to confession. We had a fallout shelter in our basement. We MUST once again pray for peace and that cooler head will prevail.
This move by USSR to place missiles in Cuba forced the US to withdraw nuclear missiles recently located in Germany, only minutes of flight time to major USSR cities. We were not told that side of the story back then. It was a mutual stand down.
The missiles you write of were installed in Turkey, not Germany. It is said Kennedy was unaware of those missiles in Turkey believing they had been dismantled prior to this event. There is more to the story of those missiles, their purpose and capabilities if you're interested enough to seek it out.
His presidency is shrouded in mystery... yet he has appeared to have saved the world. For that, he attains some of the highest respect amongst all the men and women throughout history. The CIA may have killed him, it is one of the ideas for his sudden death, yes. And he had his fare share of mistakes, but, in the acting moment, he preformed what he needed to do to save all of us.
For all of his faults, perhaps he truly wanted to prevent other dangerous little lands from obtaining the diabolical capability that he had at his hand. Perhaps that's why he was replaced so spitefully. As things shift about, many of those who blindly would have waved a flag in adoration of him would come to wave the flag of a Cuba far away from their shores. The new Cuba is a different square on the same chessboard flipped upside down, in a game moved half a world away from that Cold crisis, where his recent replacement can secrete the stock of pelf, pay off puppets and partners, and parade the perfidy as Progress.
Reading American Values, Lessons I Learned from My Family by RFK Jr. Really interesting insights into this whole period. JFK was a really unique politician. RFK Jr noted that JFK always tried to see other people’s perspectives. Having served in WW2 and seeing the horror of war and enduring the pain of it very personally, he was VERY opposed to war and committed to pursuing world peace. Most especially, peace for Americans. He did not support the United States being involved in foreign wars. Had he been President in my lifetime, Korea, Afghanistan, the Gulf Wars, all the wars in Israel and our support of the current war between Ukraine and Russia might never have happened or might have occurred but WITHOUT the involvement of the United States. Trump 2024 and Kennedy 2028. God bless and save America!
The most powerful speech ive ever heard in its entirety. If only our true President Donald Trump were to speak to us at this level. Though he is a magnificent true leader but he needs to speak to us with strategic solutions for todays conflicts and economic challenges that this country and the world is facing. I truly believe that Mr. Trump can do it.

Absolutely agree
Id rather a president who stops fucking around in other countries. Kennedy helped get us in this mess

The 1974 Missiles of October starring Martin Sheen, and William Devane. is excellent on this.
It was better than Thirteen Days.
I’m watching it now. Fourth time.
@@scottodonnell7121 Was it? I haven't seen it but I like Martin Sheen.

Kennedy surrendered.
A very high cost 😢2022
We have puppets today.
Evil Puppets
trump is pretty evil
Or is it their masters who are?
''The cost of FREEDOM is always high, but AMERICAN'S have always paid it...''
I had no idea how he got mid and south America with just a speech. Brilliant.

Extraordinary speech by President JFK. Here we are 2024.
This was Kennedy’s “FAFO” speech to Kruschev.
Now imagine Harris being in charge of a situation like this. Horrifying, isn’t it?
Kennedy lost.
I saw this on Matinee
Kennedy removed missiles from Italy and Turkey, promised not to invade Cuba again, and ended support for anti-Castro fighters.
This move by USSR to place missiles in Cuba forced the US to withdraw nuclear missiles recently located in Germany, only minutes of flight time to major USSR cities. We were not told that side of the story back then. It was a mutual stand down.

@@richardgazdyka8716 JFK surrendered to the USSR.

oh yes indeed the Cia killed JFK no doubt about it
Can you even imagine Trump being capable of giving such a magnificent speech?
Biden sure could pull it off!
Trump would not have surrendered.
