JFK's Forgotten Crisis of October 1962: (No, no, not Cuba) India

[Anne Leask]

[cid:image002.jpg at 01D185EC.82B08E80]Bruce Riedel<http://www.brookings.edu/experts/riedelb?view=bio>, Director of The Intelligence Project<http://www.brookings.edu/about/projects/intelligence> and Senior Fellow with the Center for Middle East Policy<http://www.brookings.edu/about/centers/middle-east-policy> at The Brookings Institution<http://www.brookings.edu/>, will present the principal findings from his new book, JFK's Forgotten Crisis: Tibet, the CIA, and the Sino-Indian War<http://www.brookings.edu/research/reports2/2015/08/jfks-forgotten-crisis>. He will share the gripping story of the conflict that, unlike the Cuban missile crisis (which happened simultaneously with the Sino-Indian War), has escaped history's attention, yet still resonates today. Drawing on newly declassified documents, Riedel details the decisions made by the president to stem the tide of an all-out war, and explains how his forgotten crisis is still influencing the world more than a half-century later.
