Quite an in-depth interesting read. Two thumbs up.
Sadly, with their power-play dwindling down to a few days of an inevitable Kennedy Administration coming into power to shape/influence foreign-policy, the war-hawks and their misguided disciples struck quick and decisively, snuffing out any semblance of a democratic form of government For, Of and By the people in the Congo. Talk about an ironic twist (Who would ever believe the US could stand for anything less than that).
What a treacherous tug of war amid those who sought to control the grand chess board, rather than promote self-determination amid budding democracies in other regions of the world. We sorely miss you, John Fitzgerald Kennedy. Same goes for your lil' brother Bobby too (we can only wonder amid too many What Ifs how much better mankind's existence on this blue & green planet would be).
We do know for certain we were moving in the right direction ---->
