We are now entering a new 'cold war' but do you ever think it will get as serious as the Cuban Missile Crisis in 1984?

It was a frightening time, the Russians were in cahoots with the Cuban leader (Foetal Castrol) who was building missile silos in his country which was only 200 miles from the Western Seaboard of the USA and only 50 miles from Washington State where the Whitehouse is situated.

This was indeed a turning point history....The whole thing ended when the President, JFK said that he would wait until 'hell froze over' before he would lift the blockade. 2 days latter the Russians put the missile back in the trucks and drove back to Berlin.

JFK was brave and this is what ended the crisis, do we need more brave leaders today?
