US, Russia and China are the three super powers. They came together because of nuclear weapons they each had. I lived during the Cold War, so it was current events, not history. I practiced duck and cover drills in elementary school. One day when the siren blew, our mothers came to pick us up and drive us out of town for an evacuation drill.
The Methodist Hospital in San Antonio, Texas was originally built to deal with radioactive emergencies. The reason it was built with two sublevels is because all patients at that time could be brought below ground. All the operating rooms and testing facilities were below ground. There was a decontamination shower and you had to enter the building at right angles becuase radition can not go at right angles. I learned all of this because I was a hospital volunteer in high school, a “blue jay.”
The three main powers were the united states, russia, and china . the reason they came together was because of the nuclear weapons they had built to destroy each other. kennedys speech was interesting because it talked alot about what the nuclear weapons and how we are suppose to avoid them by the duck and cover move.
This film tells you what to do when a ayomic bomb hits.
The video shows you what to do when the atomic bomb hits.it was some what of a good video but its kind of out dated.The things they say you should do wouldnt not protect you at all if an atomic bomb were to hit.
I like hoe the video explain’s what to do when the atomic bomb hits. OMG if they never showed this video the human race would be wiped out. And we wouldn’t have children great grand children. we would be all deformed with the nuclear stuff.lol
The three super powers were China, Russia, and U.S.
They came together because of nuclear weapons that they had. I don’t have very much knowledge about the Cuban Missile Crisis. I’m not very interested in it.
United Staes, Russia, and China are the three super powers. They all came together because they each had missiles and nuclear weapons. I’ve heard that the Cuban Missile Crisis caused Americans to be overly peranoid. They created evacuation drills to be more prepared if they were bombed but in all reality it woudn’t help.
The three powers involved were US, Soviet and China – they were in an arms race.
The Cuban Missile Crisis had everyone worried that they were under attack because they had missiles aimed at each other, and that is dangerous.
I want to know when the world will learn to get along, and quit worrying about every little thing and thinking ‘my way is better, I’m going to kill you if you don’t convert to my way of thinking’.
china, russia, and the united sates were the supeior countries that had contaid nuclear power. they had intrest in a nuclear war after several atempts they felt that now that they had nuclear power each thought they should expand their country by threats against eachother. in the speech presedent kennedy was trying to assure to his citezens not to be affriad and that he was doing everything in his power to assure safty.
I THINK THAT THIS IS A REALLY COOL TOPIC
the three were the United States of America, Soviet Union, and Cuba and they came on the world stage over communism.
what ive learned about the cuban missle crisis was of the U.S.s’ attempt to contain communism and in Fidel Castro’s (cuba) rage they joined up with Nikita (soviet Union)and nikita provided missles to Cuba to point at the U.S.
i am still wondering why put so many lives in danger for selfish desires and of infantile reactions. and why can there be no parley of some sort, instead of threats that can’t be controlled before its out of reach to stop.
the three ppl involved in the cuban missile crisis were the u.s. cuba and the soviet union. i believe that the whoe thing started when the u.s. went to go kill fidel castro which angered the soviet union cuz both cuba and themselves were communist countries. so they started to ship weapons to cuba causing the whole scare.
i kno the cuban missile crisis was a conflict with the united states, russia (USSR) and cuba. the united states had missiles in turkey aiming at russia. so Nakita Krushchev had missiles being built in cuba so if an attack was necessary the missiles would be able to hit any city in the united states in a matter of 16 minutes.
U.s, Soviet Union, China.Idk why they came together, something about the nuclear weapons.I think the cuban missles crisis is about the cubans getting weapons to and trying to bomb on the u.s.did they bomb the u.s? what really happend? i think kennedy’s speach is so boring.
cool video jfk is cool and i would have done the same thing
SHS
i am not sure why they cam togheter?.i have heard that the missil crisis was very dangerouse treat to the unite states.i am woundering why theyy have come togheter and why was the nuclear bombs there only option
the U.S., U.K., U.S.S.R., china, were the superpowers. the cuban missile crisis was when Russia was going to supply cuba with nuclear weapons, but the U.S. prevailed and made Russia back down. Why Russia backed off when they had better range to the U.S. then the U.S. had on Russia.
the u.s., soviet union and china were the three super powers involved in the cuban missile crisis. they came together in order to prevent the world’s first nuclear war. i know that cuba had nuclear weapons aimed at the u.s. and the u.s. had weapons aimed at the soviet union. i’m wondering how they both actually got to the point that they actually wanted to aim deadly bombs at each other.
stevens high of course :]
The Three Main Powers were China,Soviet Union and the Us. They came together to prevent going into Nuclear War. The Cuban Missile Crisis had many people worried because they were having bombs aimed at other people.
stevens high school;fasho_
united states,soviet union,cuba.im wondering why there were 7 steps in all this.the cuban misile crisis them weapons and the attack.
I think Kennedy was wrong to say that because we don’t have a right to have missiles but we still do why can’t they have them. And Russia also has the right to put nuclear missiles there because we had our missiles in turkey in reach of russia. and once more I’m sleepy
I think the missile crisis was a very difficult conflict in where russia china cuba + the u.s. were involved…I’m not really sure why they put humans lives in danger + I’m not sure why the countries came together????
I think that the speech given by JFK was very well worded. I think that was a very smart move to ban all ships going to Cuba. I wonder why the nuclear bomb was the only way out! I think the Cuban Missile Crisis was a huge ordeal that had to be handled.
I think that John F. Kennedy did not have a right to say that cuba could not have missiles. JFK used the term propaganda to make others believe that what he said was either right or true.
U.S, soviet union, and cuba are the main powers. soviet union and u.s had attack on eachother. what i dont understand is why the nuclear bomb was their only option
I think John F. Kennedy handeled this situation very well by stopping all the ships to cuba so that they could not set up their nuclear weapons. I think John F. Kennedy’s speech described this situation very well and just handled this problem in the best way he could.
The main powers were U.S., Soviet Union, and China they came together because they had nuclear weapons i havent heard much about the cuban missile crisis till now but it seem very intresting.
The main powers were U.S., Soviet Union, and China they came together because they had nuclear weapons i havent heard much about the cuban missile crisis till now but it seem very intresting i wonder what would have happen if JFK never made his speech and how the world would be now.
The three super powers are the U.S., Russia, and China. They came together because of the nuclear weapons they had and when he mentioned the word propaganda it was to make people believe what he said was neither right nor true. I dont understand why they had to use those nuclear weapons when innocent people would be getting hurt.
The U.S soviet Union, and china were the three main powers involved in the cuban missile crises. I dont understand how people just want to kill each other.especially the innocent people around.
