Cuban Missile Crisis How close was the convoy to the blockade on that fateful day?

History

Andrej [43]3 years ago
6 0

The Cuban Missile Crisis was a confrontation between the United States and the Soviet Union during October 1962. The crisis began when the US government deployed missiles in Italy and Turkey. As a response, the Soviet Union deployed missiles in Cuba.

After confirming the installation of missiles in Cuba by the Soviet Union, the United States executed a naval blockade that would prevent further deployment of missiles to the island. Negotiations were put into place in order to assure that the missiles deployed in Cuba would be dismantled. However, after confirmation by the US that there was still activity around the missiles, negotiations came to a stalemate on October 26, 1962. At this point, President Kennedy ordered a strike on the Soviet Union, as well as the invasion of Cuba. However, the Soviet Union responded by turning back 14 ships which were presumably transporting weapons to the island.

What did socrates belive came from ignorance?
maks197457 [2]

He among you is the wisest who, like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is really worth nothing at all.


What does it mean? Socrates spoke with a man who was said by many to be wise, but found that this man, like countless others he had spoken to, had no more wisdom than Socrates had, [and that the man even became angry and refused to acknowledge his ignorance when Socrates showed him that this was so,] and therefore Socrates concluded that "it seems I am wiser than he is to this small extent, that I do not think I know what I do not know".

In other words, despite that all Socrates knows is that he has no wisdom, his wisdom isn't really "worth nothing at all". That is the paradox of Socratic ignorance.
