Question

Why would the United States take action to stop the deployment of missiles to Cuba?

Answer 1

mainly because of how close it would be to the USA, specifically Florida, and how it would give very little warning to get to shelter in a populated area. To put this in perspective the ICBM missles at the time could travel up to 5,000+ miles per hour and Cuba is only 500 miles away from Florida meaning it would take roughly about 5 minutes for the missiles to hit when everyone would expect a 15-25 minute warning at the time.

Answer 2
