The Peace Exchange Bulletin

The Assassination, JFK & Cuba:
Exclusive Excerpt from Tom's Forthcoming Book on Cuba & The New Left in Honor of the 50th Anniversary of Kennedy's Death
[http://tomhayden.com/storage/JFK%20Miami%20Nov%2018%201963.jpeg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1385100394732]
When the murder of President John F. Kennedy was announced, as my plane to Minneapolis was landing, a young man behind me wearing a Goldwater button leaped up and cheered. He quickly returned to his seat amidst stony silence. I deboarded long enough to make contact with some waiting student contacts, turned around as quickly as possible, flew back to Detroit, and then spent several days huddled with close friends in Ann Arbor.

Afghanistan - A Bandaid on America's Defeat
[http://tomhayden.com/storage/afghanistan_01.jpg?__SQUARESPACE_CACHEVERSION=1385101854469]
Looks like a victory for Afghanistan in its role as the graveyard of empires. It appears that the US troop commitment will decline from 105,000 to 6,000-9,000 under the current White House plan, about half the number advocated by the Pentagon. American special forces will continue - at a slower rate - to knock down village doors and drag away suspected terrorists, with immunity from Afghan law.

Speculation On Cuba
When I look up from my immersion in writing this book on Cuba and the US, all the signs point to the second scenario described below, a goal of normalization by the end of President Barack Obama's second term.

Tell Congress to End the War on Drugs in Mexico and Central America--Sign On
To the US Congress and President Barack Obama: "We call on you to end funding to the bloody war on drugs in Mexico and Central America, which has led to the death and disappearance of more than 100,000 Mexicans and the dangerous militarization of the region. Instead of continuing to waste billions of taxpayer dollars through the Merida Initiative and the Central American Regional Security Initiative, we urge you to join citizens and governments of the region in the search for more just, effective and humane alternatives to the drug war at home and abroad."
