 [No title]
Kruschev's placement of nuclear missiles in Cuba was his response.
As a result, Kruschev was removed from power and replaced by hard-line leaders who began a massive nuclear and conventional arms build-up.
Neither could know that just two years later Kruschev would be out of office and Kennedy would be assassinated, and they would be replaced by leaders who had a complete mis-understanding of what happened in 1962.

 NIKITA KRUSCHEV (3*)
Taubmann's biography is thorough, tracing Kruschev's origins as a Ukrainian-born Russian who grew up under conditions of grinding poverty, rising above his origins through his cleverness and drive to become a metalworker and enter a higher social class.
However, Kruschev was a young man on the make and threw his lot in with the Bolsheviks since he perceived they provided him with the most opportunity for advancement.
It is by no means an entirely pleasant story, not so much because of the brutalities in which Kruschev was a party, than because of the background of bureaucratic toadying and back-stabbing that runs through the narrative.

 FIRE FROM THE SKY: Battle of Harvest Moon & True Story of Space Shuttles
Nikita Kruschev asked his physicists, specifically Pyorte (Peter) Kapitsa, to develop a system for total defense against missiles and aircraft.
By studying Tesla and others they were successful and, in 1960, Kruschev announced the development of a "fantastic" Soviet weapon, one that could destroy all life on the world.
U.S.S. As things were not going well with Kruschev, he decided to use the weapons system before it was fully operational and on April 10, 1963, he successfully detected and destroyed the nuclear submarine *U.S.S. Thresher,* using an underwater scalar howitzer.

 TIME: The Berlin Wall: Ten Years After
Kruschev, a veteran of the Bolshevik Revolution, won a power struggle to replace Stalin after the dictator's death in 1953.
At the same time, though, Kruschev ordered the brutal suppression of dissent against Soviet rule in Eastern Europe during the '50s, most notably the bloody crackdown on the Hungarian revolt of 1956.
Kruschev was considered too reformist for many Soviet apparatchiks, however, and he was ousted by a conservative group led by Leonid Brezhnev in 1964.

He reminds me quite a lot of Nikita Kruschev, but even Kruschev knew what would happen if America were attacked with biological or nuclear weapons.
Kruschev was the supreme leader of a bona-fide superpower, and he dared not fight his wars with germs and atoms.
Even if Sadaam is dim enough to act differently, such an attack would immediately give America the moral high ground and would just as quickly satisfy all pre-requisites for fighting a just war.

 BBC NEWS | UK | Politics | When the diplomatic mask slips
It was a speech to the United Nations by Harold Macmillan that Soviet President Nikita Kruschev famously interrupted by beating his shoe against his desk before shouting to the US representatives "We will bury you".
A later Cold War instance of departing from the diplomatic script, again featuring Kruschev, is the notorious 1959 "kitchen debate" between the Soviet leader and Richard Nixon.
During a visit to the kitchen-set of an American exhibition in Moscow, Nixon supposedly privately berated the Soviet leader during a break in the formal itinerary.

Kruschev is undoubtedly a clever man; either a dangerous one or a man who will be valuable to the cause of peace.
Bulganin gave the impression of being the type of level-headed man who could be a fairly important executive in a commercial firm, or more probably a higher civil servant, in any country and under any kind of regime.
It was obvious that Kruschev was more politically awake and he had by far the more dominating character.

 The Partial Observer - Dear Jon's Encyclopedia
According to the film, Kruschev was a Commisar, a ranking party official, sent by Stalin personally to take over the defense of Stalingrad after early gains by the German invaders had pushed the Soviet defenders to the brink of annihiliation.
Kruschev is at least partially credited with the tactics that stemmed the German advance and turned the tide of the battle.
As premier of the Soviet Union, he was accosted by Eisenhower's Vice-President Richard Nixon in the famous "kitchen debate" during a joint tour of a showcase for modern living.

Still, when he spoke at the United Nations, Kruschev was speaking with a knowledge unavailable to most Americans.
In 1960, Kruschev declared, “We will bury you.” With the help of the American left, and the Democrat Party, his declaration may yet ring true.

 Invincible Iron Man Masterworks Vol. 1
Behind the Iron Curtain, Soviet leader Nikita Kruschev is led into the private laboratory of Professor Vanko, aka The Crimson Dynamo, the world's greatest expert on electricity.
He disintegrates an Iron Man replica, stops a tank from moving in its tracks, and impresses Kruschev immeasurably (despite the Soviet leaders concerns that Vanko is too diabolical and egotistical to trust.) Kruschev challenges the Crimson Dynamo to go to America and destroy Iron Man and Tony Stark.
He then is inspired to another plan: he blocks the electrically armored man inside a prison of tree trunks, then comes back after a brief time and grabs the trapped villain and carries him off and threatens to drop him into the ocean where he will electrocute himself.

To bolster the cover-up, a U-2 was quickly painted in NASA markings, with a fictitious NASA serial number, and put on display for the news media at the NASA Flight Research Center at Edwards Air Force Base on 6 May 1960.
The next day, Soviet Premier Nikita Kruschev exposed the cover-up by revealing that the pilot had been captured, and espionage equipment had been recovered from the wreckage.
These were the first U-2s to actually be operated by the NACA or NASA, as opposed to the CIA or U.S. Air Force.

Gray Davis employs the same tactics as Nikita Kruschev.
As a modern leftist, Kruschev capitalized on the use of words issued forth by liberal, socialist intellectuals.
Pledging a non-religious moral justification for the use of brute force, he operated as a gangster, eliminating opposition in the furtherance of cultural and political control: both of the mind and of the incentive to produce wealth.

A greater degree of liberty has arisen, if only temporarily, behind the Iron Curtain, as was Benson’s hope; but nevertheless, Kruschev was also on target - truth be told, more on target.
For socialism is still alive and well in Russia, throughout the old Soviet Empire, on all seven continents, on the isles of the sea, at the UN, in its regional arrangements, and as Kruschev predicted, in the United States.
Socialism is not in desperate retreat, as falsely proclaimed by the establishment press, our state university professors and our “all is well” don’t-rock-the-boat political machines.
