A crock of S.
We overreacted when they “put a few missiles in Cuba.”
And we have to be sensitive to their thousand year old whatever.
They are a dangerous evil enemy country and they were dangerous when they were a communist dictatorship and put nuclear missiles on our doorstep.
Just wondering did they have a thousand year history of putting nuke missiles on the other side of the world?
Soviet missiles in Cuba were a reaction to US IRBMs in Turkey.
Did your history book(s) cover that?
Alrighty then.
I contend that the United States of America has been at least as dangerous and evil in my lifetime as any other country in the world.
Prove me wrong.
Shuddup and take your constipation meds, blathering old fool. You add nothing to the conversation.
Just wondering did they have a thousand year history of putting nuke missiles on the other side of the world?
No, but at the time the USSR built a base in Cuba, the USA had nuclear missiles installed in Europe and aimed at Russia.

[Excerpts]
The next day, October 27, Khrushchev sent another message indicating that any proposed deal must include the removal of U.S. Jupiter missiles from Turkey.[...]
The next morning, October 28, Khrushchev issued a public statement that Soviet missiles would be dismantled and removed from Cuba.
The crisis was over but the naval quarantine continued until the Soviets agreed to remove their IL–28 bombers from Cuba and, on November 20, 1962, the United States ended its quarantine. U.S. Jupiter missiles were removed from Turkey in April 1963.
We also had Jupiter missiles installed in Italy. Their removal was also started in April 1963.
