Bay Of Pigs Quotes

• Así que la razón por la que fracasó Bahía de Cochinos fue que la promesa original hecha por Eisenhower no fue cumplida por la Administración posterior. Permitió que la aviación hostil acabara con la fuerza de invasión que se aproximaba.

• To give [the Bay of Pigs invasion of Cuba] even covert support is on a par with the hypocrisy and cynicism for which the United States is constantly denouncing the Soviet Union in the United Nations and elsewhere. This point will not be lost on the rest of the world, nor on our own consciences.

• I was watching a documentary that during the Bay of Pigs crisis JFK had about two weeks before anybody reported on it. Imagine that. I think it's fair to say that if something like that happens under a current president, they've got to figure out in about an hour what their response is.

• Hay que recordar que, literalmente, a los pocos meses de la toma de posesión de Castro, los aviones de Florida empezaron a bombardear Cuba. Al cabo de un año, la administración Eisenhower decidió en secreto, pero formalmente, derrocar al gobierno. Luego vino la invasión de Bahía de Cochinos. La administración Kennedy estaba furiosa por el fracaso de la invasión e inmediatamente lanzó una gran guerra terrorista y económica que se endureció con el paso de los años. En estas condiciones, es sorprendente que Cuba sobreviviera.

• In the annals of American blunders, the Bay of Pigs may have been even more feckless, and the invasion of Iraq more costly, but we cannot yet calculate the cost of teaching Iran and others, by our role in the casual overthrow of Moammar Gaddafi, the peril of not having nuclear weapons.

• A los científicos se les machaca constantemente con la idea de que gastamos 27.000 millones de dólares en los programas Apolo, y se les pregunta: "¿Qué más quieren?". No lo gastamos; se hizo por razones políticas. ... Apolo fue una respuesta al fiasco de Bahía de Cochinos y al exitoso vuelo orbital de Yuri Gagarin. El objetivo del presidente Kennedy no era descubrir el origen de la Luna para finales de la década, sino poner un hombre en la Luna y traerlo de vuelta, y lo hicimos.

• I'm working pretty slowly these days, but most of what it is, or a lot of what it is anyway, is kind of in the vein of "Bay of Pigs". Maybe not all in the same scope, but recorded using the same method and using some of the same sounds, or similar sounds.

• America has entered one of its periods of historical madness, but this is the worst I can remember: worse than McCarthyism, worse than the Bay of Pigs and in the long term potentially more disastrous than the Vietnam War.
