To the Point America's failure to act in Hungary revolt
Russell Kirk argues that America and its allies squandered a crucial chance in 1956 to aid Hungary as Soviet tanks crushed the uprising. He cites Henry Cabot Lodge, Walter Reuther, and U.S. inaction during October 30 to November 4, 1956, as evidence of timidity. He warns that later appeasement temptations persist and notes the ongoing Cold War lessons for U.S. policy.
