        Mr. Beschloss I have a question that will go unanswered because we are in the United States so let it remain rhetorical: We are told the Ich bin Ein Berliner Speech shows JFK is "Just another Cold Warrior. But after reading Cold War History for about 30 years I came accross

        an amazing piece of history that preceded this trip. JFK defied NATO and West Germany's tacit agreement since 1955 to give W Germany nukes with semi-autonomous control. He reversed NATO thus taking a HUGE step towards the evolving Detente of 1963 , which today is erased for rea

        sons that are debatable .. provided we notice an elephant in the room. Why did it take me thirty years to learn of this huge reversal of NATO by JFK? And notice what it does to the Berlin Speech itself. Now rather than sabre rattling it is best seen as reassuring that convention

        al forces are enough. Just the opposite of "Just another Cold Warrior " the way it is usually presented and ALWAYS presented by our Left Gatekeepers like Noam Chomsky and Amy Goodman who are funded Methinks to keep left capillary and avoiding artery-ventricle moments like June63

        What a real leader on the 🌎 stage looked like standing w Free Germany against oppressive Soviet regime. He would make his famous speech on the 26th "Ich bin ein Berliner." How times have changed. T today stands w Putin while publicly criticizing Chancellor Merkel.

        As any regular solver of the NY Times Crossword knows, Adenauer's nickname was "Der Alte".

        Nice. I think I read that when Konrad Adenauer took power Germany was so ravaged he had no place to sleep but the bathtub. I don’t believe Germany had any means to impeach his predecessor. Thankfully, the United States has that remedy.
