The report was : If the Cuban Missile Crisis was the most dangerous passage of the Cold War, the most dangerous moment of the Cuban Missile Crisis was the evening of Saturday, 27 October 1962, when the resolution of the crisis—war or peace—appeared to hang in the balance. While Soviet ships had not attempted to break the U.S naval blockade of Cuba, Soviet nuclear missile bases remained on the island and were rapidly becoming operational, and pressure on President Kennedy to order an air strike or invasion was mounting, especially after an American l -2 reconnaissance plane was shot down over Cuba that Saturday afternoon and its pilot killed. Hopes that a satisfactory resolution to the crisis could be reached between Washington and Moscow had dimmed, moreover, when a letter from Soviet leader Nikita S. Khrushchev arrived Saturday morning demanding that the United States agree to remove its Jupiter missiles from Turkey in exchange for a Soviet removal of missiles from Cuba. The letter struck U.S. officials as an ominous hardening of the Soviet position from the previous day's letter from Khrushchev, which had omitted any mention of American missiles in Turkey but had instead implied that Washington's pledge not to invade Cuba would be sufficient to obviate the need for Soviet nuclear protection of Castro's revolution. The rest of this text can be located here under the Picture of Castro. But the fact was that on the day when my father had died he just came back from a conference for the Nation Of Islam being held at McCormick Place. It was the announcement that the Nation Was going to make clear their statement to the US on what is was that they were seeking as rights and freedoms, But the interesting fact was on the same day in Chicago at McCormick Place the Black Nation of Islam held a news conference to state what they were seeking from the United States as far as rights. My father Dan Burley had to be at this conference and it was under the protest of my mother and other famiy members. I recall what was talked about then as a very young girl and being involved within the structure of the business via learning printing, art, and developing colums the things that were not being taught in my school I was indeed taught at home within my family. And at the time of his death I was awake and heard him come home at about 2 am in the morning, my mother was very upset and I heard them in the hallway. I stated he was tired and went to bed, they claim I found him this was a lie! I was up and I was also up when it was reported to me that something had happened to him. I went into the room and saw him looking as he did in life looking straight up at the ceiling. Then someone came, a doctor who was in the building, I did not recall my mother calling any one but he was at our door. He came and made arrangements and then his body was removed. You see also at this time there was alleged a tie to Cuba or a fear of one to the Black Nation of Islam in America which would give them more connection to the world and place them into being a Nation within a Nation something that had frighten those in Government. To think to tie millions of Blacks and having them demand rights could have cause a very horrifc nightmare for those whose racial policities at the time where not for Equality, and again my father Dan Burley was placed in a very dangerous position as the nations major writer. He write Mohammad Speaks from the beginning it was his wrotes and the voice of the Honor Elijah Mohammad he wove into printed text, the text which appeared in countless numbers of papers around the world then it was Dan Burley. At this time he was attempting to leave it, and move on because he had developed a newspaper the Owl with the help of my mother, he wanted to move on, and because of this could he have been posioned and not have died of a so called heart attack.? Murdered to cover up a government conspiracy to hide the fact that this crisis in Cuba may have included blacks united? You be the judge but again history repeats itself because I am also in the same time in place over 40 years later. The players those involved in another very large government conspiracy to coverup 9/11 and the ties to Real Estate, Bankings, and Mortgages moving money to create acts of terrorism and much which came out of Chicago again.
