The revolutionary leader of Congo was shot to death several days before Kennedy was to take office. Like Hammerssjold, the incoming president sought to embrace a Foreign Policy of self-determination for third world countries.
Sadly, Like Patrice Lumumba and Dag Hammerssjold two years prior, President Kennedy would suffer the same fate as the other two idealist, who also shared his vision before their tragic deaths in 1961. What a disturbing pattern...peaceniks die, power corrupted warmongers rule.
