Once JFK almost single handily prevented nuclear war but vowed to never invade Cuba and later on Vietnam , some big time military / intelligence men made this thing happen
Many believe JFK's "Strategy of Peace" speech on June 10, 1963 rattled a few nerves. In that speech he talks of the goal of "complete disarmament" and that America would "never start a war". I'm not sure I agree with everything but it was a gutsy speech to make. It probably didn't sit well with some folks.
