https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq Which option would JFK choose? Explain your answer en-us 2021-04-12 23:13:23 UTC 2021-04-13 01:07:26 UTC hello@padlet.com https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409871976 Because it shows that the US has the upper hand of the situation as of now, since the missiles are not operational yet. As a result, Cuba and SU might have a lot of casualties at the sites and a loss of firepower if they don’t comply with the demand.

If the strike happens, it might be difficult for the US to justify its position as a defensive measure. However, the air strike would be the safest option to maintain the security of the US, unless SU decides to go on with the Third World War...]]> 2021-04-13 00:42:35 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409871976 Nopitty https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409883017 Is not an open declaration of war, and still attempt to deal with the problem at hand. The willingness to resolve this issue peacefully will benefit SU and USA, as both parties will not need to fight a war. ]]> 2021-04-13 00:46:37 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409883017 https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409887400 Pro: Opening an air strike might reduce considerably the number of missiles installed that can reach USA and consequently, reduce the amount of loss and casualties in the event of a war against SU.
Cons: Considered as an act of war and Cuba with SU can launch the remaining missiles that have not been destroyed yet]]> 2021-04-13 00:48:13 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409887400 arumi_safiy_b_md_azhar https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409887403 pros:
- taking no action prevents the possibility of perceived aggravation by the SU + Cuba which may cause them to immediately fire the missiles once ready without warning
- The public will not know about the missiles by inferencing government actions, which will prevent social meltdown and panic

cons:
- lack of action gives SU + Cuba free movement to continue constructing the missiles
- lack of action can be perceived as weakness by the public when they find out]]> 2021-04-13 00:48:13 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409887403 https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409898105  Pros: it can prevent Soviet Union from shipping more missiles into Cuba while buying more time for the USA to further assess the capabilities of the missiles and open negotiations with SU and Cuba to disable the missile to avoid war.
Cons: Can be considered as an act of war, or a violation of international laws about human rights and Cuba’s national sovereignty together with the freedom to exercise import and export activities with other countries.
—-> Solution : still allow for basic necessities and be viewed as a quarantined blockade —> the most feasible]]> 2021-04-13 00:51:57 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409898105 paul_gilbert_fernandez_baquira https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409898408 P: Least likely to start war as there is active cooperation to deescalate the crisis. Best chance for survival of all parties, since everyone is willingly demilitarising
C: Khruschev may not like getting investigated, tensions will rise. Khruschev will get found out and will be shunned by the international community. ]]> 2021-04-13 00:52:04 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409898408 https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409899101 Pros
- Most peaceful and diplomatic way to solve crisis
Cons
- May be too lenient and end up with failed negotiations ]]> 2021-04-13 00:52:19 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409899101 lei_xuetao https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409909218 Pros: 
Show the will of the US of defending its security,  avoiding any possibility of war or misunderstanding for both sides; 
A more peaceful way to remove missile threats for the US and to settle the Soviets.
Cons: 
It may be viewed as a concession and hence make them more comfortable and fearless in setting up more missile basements and military bases in Europe. 
If the Cubans and the Soviet Union refuse to negotiate, it may lead to war. ]]> 2021-04-13 00:56:01 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409909218 jolin_wong_xinhui https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409915104 Pros
+ SU will have enough time to decide and remove missiles before another war happens
Cons
- SU may not remove the missiles which might cause a war to happen
- SU might see this as a threat and become more aggressive. SU may fire before the 24 hour mark]]> 2021-04-13 00:58:12 UTC https://padlet.com/devi_lokanathan2/5tp74pfqwsk4t9tq/wish/1409915104
