INCLUDING:
12:24:47 Large dias; MCU JFK speech: Any
unilateral American intervention in the absence of an external attack on
ourselves or an ally would have been contrary to our traditions & to our
international obligations; but let the record show that our restraint is not
inexhaustable. Should it ever
appear that the inter-American doctrine of non-interference merely conceals or
excuses a policy of non-action; if the nations of this hemisphere should fail
to meet their commitment against outside Communist penetration, then I want it
clearly understood that this government will not hesitate in meeting its
primary obligations which are the security of our Nation. We do not intend to be lectured on
intervention by those whose character was stamped for all time on the bloody
streets of Budapest. It is not the
first time that Communist tanks have rolled over gallant men & women
fighting to redeem the Independence of their homeland. Nor is it by any means the final
episode in the eternal struggle of Liberty against Tyranny anywhere on the face
of the globe, including Cuba itself. Mr Castro has said these were mercenaries. According to press reports, the final message to be relayed
from the refugee forces of the beach came from the rebel commander when asked
if he wished to be evacuated his answer was I will never leave this
country. That is not the reply of
a mercenary. He has gone now to
join in the mountains countless other guerilla fighters who are equally
determined that the dedication of those who gave their lives shall not be
forgotten, and that Cuba must not be abandoned to the Communists; & we do
not intend to abandon it either.
