As an emblem of his extravagance, Yung Lean brags about being able to eat prime steak as a snack, when most can only indulge in such foods on special occasions or after they have set money aside for it in advance.

This speech was delivered on Friday, January 20, 1961. Kennedy, scores of dignitaries, and huge crowds of onlookers braved sub-freezing temperatures and more than half a foot of snow to hear the historic speech.
The speech allotted JFK the space to rally the American people behind the Vietnam War – instead of placing the responsibility on the US Government, he put it in the hands of the US citizen. Just a few months, later he ramped up his support for the Vietnam War through an intense new programme.
That change came in March of 1961 when Kennedy’s ‘Strategic Hamlet’ programme was introduced. Kennedy decided that America should finance an increase in the size of the South Vietnamese Army from 150,000 to 170,000, also agreeing to an extra 1000 US military advisors sent to South Vietnam to help train the South Vietnamese Army. Both of these decisions were not made public as they broke the conditions of the 1954 Geneva Agreement.

In perhaps the most famous of the “Watergate Tapes”, President Nixon and H.R. Haldeman, the White House chief of staff, meet in the Oval Office on June 23, 1972 from 10.04am to 11.39am.
On Jun 17, 1972, 5 men were arrested trying to bug the offices of the Democratic National Committee at the Watergate hotel and office complex. Originally dismissed as a “third-rate burglary”, the event became the center point of a sensational case that lead to the eventual resignment of President Richard Nixon.
The events that followed:
- Authorities discover that a GOP security aide was among the Watergate burglars.
- A $25,000 check from the Nixon campaign ends up in the bank account of one of the burglars.
- Authorities find out that while serving as attorney general, John Mitchell controlled a secret Republican fund used to finance widespread intelligence-gathering operations against the Democrats.
- FBI agents establish that the Watergate break-in stems from a huge campaign of political spying and sabotage conducted on behalf of the Nixon reelection effort.
- Nixon is re-elected in one of largest landslide victories in history.
- Former Nixon aides G. Gordon Liddy and James W. McCord Jr. are convicted of conspiracy, burglary and wiretapping in the Watergate incident, and five other men plead guilty.
- H.R. Haldeman and John Ehrlichman, and Attorney General Richard Kleindienst, Nixon’s top White House staffers, resign over the scandal. White House counsel John Dean is fired.
- The Senate Watergate Committee begins its nationally televised hearings; John Dean testifies admitting Nixon’s involvement.
- Nixon refuses to give over the White House tapes of conversations recorded by the tape-recording system in his offices.
- Nixon: “I’m not a crook.”
- In the face of almost certain impeachment, Nixon resigns.

Dr. King delivered this lecture on April 4, 1967, at New York’s Riverside Church – exactly one year before his assassination.
The address was part of a conference held by the CALCAV (Clergy and Laymen Concerned About Vietnam), an organization working to bring the war in Vietnam to an end. Dr. King’s “Beyond Vietnam” marked a significant shift in the issues King addressed and advocated for – his speech the first time Dr. King had publicly spoken out against the war.

President George W. Bush gave his “History’s Unmarked Grave of Discarded Lies" speech to a joint session of Congress on September 21, 2001.
A primary resource featured in Norton’s Western Civilizations textbook, authored by Joshua Cole and Carol Stymes.
To quote Norton’s digital version of the text:
On the morning of September 11, 2001, two commercial flights on their way from Boston to Los Angeles were hijacked. The planes slammed into the World Trade Center towers in Manhattan. A third hijacked airliner crashed into the Pentagon, while a fourth plane went down in western Pennsylvania. This terrorist attack was masterminded by the radical, Islamist umbrella organization known as al Qaeda. Its official leader and financial supporter was the Saudi multimillionaire, Osama bin-Laden. Ten days after the terrorist attacks, President George W. Bush gave the following speech to a joint session of Congress.
