12:24:47 Large dias; MCU JFK speech: ŅAny 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.
