2. Ike and the CIA  Ike came to rely on CIA for information  CIA given lots of leeway to operate  1953-Iran  1954-Guatamala

3. Ike and Khrushchev  1953, Stalin dies, Khrushchev takes over USSR  Seemed less oppressive than Stalin  Things don’t change that much between the super powers:

4. No Real Change  1955 Germany rearms and joins NATO  Warsaw Pact created

5.  1955 Geneva Summit  1 st US-USSR meeting since WWII  Ike proposes Open Skies Policy  Nothing gets done

6.  1956 Middle East Crisis  Egypt seizes Suez Canal  France, Great Britain and Israel invade Egypt  USSR threatens nuclear strike, UN intervenes  This leads to Eisenhower Doctrine

7.  1956 Hungarian Rebellion  Students protest  Red Army moves in and kills 30,000 protesters

8. Cold War and Technology  US felt they were superior to USSR  US shocked in October 1957 when USSR launches Sputnik I  After failures, US launches its own satellite in 1958  Space Race has begun

9. The U2 Incident  Summer of 1992, me and my friends went to the U2 concert  I sat in the last row of the stadium  My friend threw a guy’s shirt out of the stadium

10. The Real U2 Incident  US started flying missions in 1955  Since 1958, USSR knew about it  Ike wanted out, Dulles pushed for more flights  US caught in lie when Powers U2 is shot/crashes down inside USSR

11.  Powers fails to do his job and he and his plane are captured  1960 US-USSR Summit is ruined due to this
