How were Kennedy and Khrushchev trying to avoid nuclear war? How had they in the past and how would they in the future?
The Herblock cartoon pictures Kennedy and Khrushchev struggling to keep the nuclear war monster in its box in the immediate aftermath of the Cuban Missile Crisis. Kennedy had considered using nuclear weapons and had considered invading Cuba to take out the Soviet nuclear weapons being installed in Cuba. The cartoon depicts a sweating Kennedy and a straining Khrushchev fighting to keep the lid on the monster. They needed something more secure like a lock to keep the monster at bay as they had had a close call in Cuba in October 1962.
