Kennedy didn't even know about US nukes in Turkey and that those were the main reason for the Soviet Union for the Kuba crisis. After this was solved ( - what includes a "Crimson Tide" scenario, problem is, that the submarine was actually a soviet one and it was attacked by the US navy, with no contact to Moscow, so they thought that the USA really haved started the war now trying to sink them and discussed if they should use the nukes on board to take the whole fleet above with them...), Kenneady got such dangerous ideas that Cold War should be stoppped - so he was murdered, of course blaming it on some random "communist" guy. Was neither the first nor the last political murder of that kind - and not just in the USA.

@emptywindexbottle97 Kid, you got zero clue about the Russian government. You likely do not even have any clue about your own...

@JohnDlugosz What are you talking about? Soviet Citizens could go anywhere, the problem with NATO territory was, that the CIA constantly tried to win over soviet citizens at spies and that in a war scenario, which was (and is) about the existence of mankind. So, yeah, no room to fool around.

@alexturnbackthearmy1907 From Soviet PoV it was indeed insane to think taht this could be ended from their side. Cold War was started by NATO/its US emperor, to repeat 2.WW in the same way, just more succesful regarding the try to get their bloody claws on Russia's gigantic resource reserves. Still the case by the way, all NATO wars are about robbing other people's wealth, becuse NATO itself doesn't have much left. Europe, because it never had much to begin with. USA, because it burned through its reserves with insane speed and all its has left now is mainly coal and timber. So the idea that the soviet union should just lay down and try to be friends - well, it was later done and it led in terrible places and the situation now is even worse, just with NATO right at border of Russia (the sole reason the soviet union kept the eastern european states it had saved from german's genocide, was to keep NATO and its US nukes away - that's why they tried for 10 years to get a peace plan and createad the Warsaw Pact only when the USA installed nukes right at the eastern border of its occupied territories.
