Hungary revolted against Soviet occupation in 1956.

Eisenhower refused to get the United States drawn into a war with Russia despite having sympathy for the Hungarians.

He had plenty of critics eager to get us into war over Hungary but Ike wasn’t having it.

Freepers would have accused him of “rooting for Khrushchev”
