Within days of 28 October 1962 two journalists publish the official but untruthful White House account, as instructed and edited by the President. They also call-out a political enemy for daring to consider a humiliating missile swap with the Soviets. But we show how the Kennedys had already suggested this very missile swap to Khrushchev via private backchannels, on condition he kept it secret. Which he did.

28 October 1962: by holding his nerve Kennedy defuses the crisis in just 13 days. He says it's over although he's unable to verify whether Khrushchev ever withdraws his missiles or not. The last missiles do indeed leave Cuba on day 48 of the crisis but for very different reasons.

The Cuban Missile Crisis begins not because Castro is a dangerous communist but because he is NOT. Khrushchev tells his ruling council: ‘The only way to save Cuba is to put missiles there' - not only to prevent an American invasion, but also to keep Fidel Castro sweet.

Synopsis: 1959: The first country the new revolutionary president of Cuba visits is the United States of America. And he's a big hit. The students at Princeton carry him on their shoulders. Castro wants a trade deal with the American government. So why does Kennedy fight the presidential election of 1960 on getting tougher than the Republicans with Cuba?

We have the memo to President Kennedy dated Day 2 of the crisis with his own security chiefs clarifying that 'these missiles do not significantly alter the balance of power.' So why does October 1962 develop into the closest we've ever come to nuclear war?

#14 22 October 1962: President Kennedy goes on prime-time TV and announces a blockade around Cuba to prevent more Soviet missiles reaching the island. But US sailors call the so-called ‘quarantine' nothing but ‘grand theatrics.' Not a single Soviet ship is stopped by the US Navy. What was going on?

#13 15 October 1962: Soviet nuclear missile sites are discovered. It's only three weeks before the mid-term elections. Kennedy decides that to negotiate publicly with Khrushchev would be a disaster at the polls; as would ignoring them which is what his allies advise him to do. So, as Noam Chomsky puts it, the President chooses ‘to play Russian Roulette with nuclear missiles.'

#12 Short taster for the longer length episode 3. All episodes stand alone. The Cuban Missile Crisis begins not because Castro is a dangerous communist but because he is NOT. Khrushchev tells his ruling council: ‘The only way to save Cuba is to put missiles there' - not only to prevent an American invasion, but also to keep Fidel Castro sweet.

Although the Electoral College voted for Biden on 14 December 2020, President Trump is still saying the election was stolen from him. It's worth reminding yourself that presidents will say almost anything if an election is involved. The Cuba Missile Crisis exploded just weeks before Kennedy's important mid-term elections. If he looked weak and lost any more seats in congress he would be a lame-duck president for the rest of his term. We have the memo to President Kennedy dated Day 2 of the crisis with his own security chiefs clarifying that the Soviet missiles on Cuba made ‘no significant difference.' So why does October 1962 develop into the closest we've ever come to nuclear war?
