    You know what makes the spy stories of those pre 1960s interesting, they had absolute freedom since there were no CCTVs, no internet tech to reveal spies. So they could walk across their boss without doubt (But does the boss already know?? )
    Also they had no quick transport facilities or mobile communication tech or high tech medical support to go through their spy lives with ease.. All the transactions that took place in the video would have taken immense physical /mental toughness and loads of time+patience to get things done.

    39:24 There is no "jungle" in Cuba. That was exactly why the Soviets knew it would be difficult to keep on hiding the 20 m long SS 4 and 5 missiles for long, and why in stead they started with important numbers of surface to air missiles in stead. The idea was to shoot down U 2's crossing over Cuba like the one which was shot down above the USSR. Somehow, this spyplane managed to slip through the maze, maybe because it was the first flight since quite some time above the island. I'm currently reading the very interesting book by Serhii Plokhy called Nuclear folly A new history of the Cuban Missile Crisis. The Russian author had access to a lot of KGB files about this dramatic episode of history, if you're interested in the topic I highly recommend it. I still have some doubts about Penkowsky: the way he claims he managed to photograph some of his most crucial material sounds somewhat hard to believe. The documents may be true, but the way he got them sound somewhat embellished.

  • @bobl1769
    @bobl1769 11 месяцев назад +3

    When declaring the winner of the Missile Crisis, it all depends on who is keeping score. The removal of missiles from the UK, Italy and Turkey, as well as the Cuba non aggression agreement and the shiploads of humanitarian aid to the island, also were very meaningful concessions. Kennedy clearly did not rely on this single source of information to make his decision to stand firm. Nevertheless, the results speak for themselves and the world became a safer place thanks to Penkovsky’s sacrifice.

    This video is a bit off of what really happened between the CIA/FBI handlers and Penkovsky.
    He begged them to allow him to stay in US/UK 'custody' before Moscow ordered him to return. The US failed to take action - call it bureaucracy, incompetence or just plane indifference - to protect him and giving him the necessary means to stay safe.

    • @paulelephant9521
      @paulelephant9521 Год назад

      I think the Cuban missille crisis woke a lot of people in the military establishment up on both sides. The Russians realised that giving the Cubans a bunch of tactical nukes was a terrible idea because they would have no control over there use , if the USA decided to invade Cuba Russia didn't want to be unavoidably destroyed in ww3 because Fidel fired off a couple of tactical nukes.
      Same sort of thing happened with the Americans and the bombers of S.A.C. who provided at least a few bombers circling the Artic loaded with a bunch of nukes to assure a retaliatory strike at all times. The possibility of a rogue crew or even a single rogue crewman could have decided they were going to drop their nuke regardless of orders and that would almost certainly kick off the end of civilisation.
      Nuclear safety, in the sense of the ability of these weapons to resist being unintentionally fired, improved a huge amount after this period, as the penny dropped that any nuke unexpectedly exploding anywhere was potentially maximally serious.
      Still amazing we got through this, I'm sure i read somewhere that some genius in the American military decided the middle of the crisis was the perfect time to do a test firing of some missile system without informing the higher ups, just so many near misses!

      I understand the sentiment & wish something could have been done but realistically you can't just land in Moscow & pick them up. Risking American lives to go get them was out of the question & a somewhat comical notion that it would even be considered, you might as well send some team to Mars to rescue an alien. He knew & fully understood the risk, to protect them all he had to do was keep them in the dark. I don't know what became of them but hopefully they were kept out of it. He contributed a great deal & had he got away, he would have deserved to live his life in the US.

    They also often had a conveniently placed cart with booze, including vodka from behind the curtain and a large bottle of aspirin (justifiable operational support or retro nostalgia for halcion Yalie days, you decide).
    And of course, those sprinkled throughout the building had the extra heavy Sargeant & Greenleaf safes and any paper on thier desks moved less than a painting.

    Anytime a banner reads something like ..."saved the world", it's best to take a pass.

    An interesting sidelight to this story is the movie "The Russia House" from the best seller. The author deals with all of the issues raised here, but with a doozer of a twist.

    The other way to view this, is the USSR got exactly what they wanted. The withdrawl of more effective and powerful US missiles from ITaly, Turkey and Britain. Perhaps it was Krushchev 1, Kennedy 0.

    The movie The Courier from 2021 is also a true story covering this topic. Not in this much detail though

    The idea of a blockade was not just pulled out of the magician's hat at the time the Soviet ships were steaming toward Cuba with nuclear missiles. The idea was launched earlier, mainly by Robert McNamara. At that time, no one else was in favour of this option. JFK still wanted a surgical strike, while his generals strangely enough were opposed to that idea, because they couldn't guarantee it would be 100 % effective.The chronology of who said or proposed what on which day exactly is extremely important, and sometimes gets somewhat lost, especially due to JFK fans. When push came to shove he went for the blockade idea. But NOT from day 1 onwards.

      Bless my late Father who took the time to explain all this to me. I graduated from grade school in 1962.

    To believe in the Soviers being ahead of the US is believing in the Superiority of the whole Soviet system, whereas really while politicians where bamboozled by public statement, the intelligence complex needed an enemy to be strong. China is most of the same right now.

    Kennedy was assassinated but there’s over a year later perhaps not even that much. It is extremely possible I think, did Mr. Chris Jeff was so humiliated by what his by I told her United States, and so humiliated by being forced to back down, and he immediately set a trap to kill President Kennedy as repayment for his own humiliation. I believe the Soviet union was so angry over the Cuban missile crisis and all of their anger was focused on one man, Jack Kennedy. They knew that it was the best way to get back of the United States into ensure that the military industrial complex that was building up, would get stronger instead of weaker. I believe that Kennedy might have kept us out of Vietnam. That was the one reason why among others that he was assassinated. This is not my theory, but a theory that has been flooded for several years. Period I believe that the work of Oleg Penkovsky demonstrates that. I believe he should be given an award or recognition in this country for what he did in saving our nation from horrible war.
