We'll keep looking with this innate deisre to 'know' if there is life beyond. The expanse is enormous. Maybe humans will find something before extinction.

Maybe humans will find something before extinction.Not really, I mean even if something is a 1 in a billion chance occurance, can you really say it’s “improbable” if there trillions and trillions of opportunities?
I think we will find evidence of life outside our solar system eventually, our ability to look is growing all the time.We'll keep looking with this innate deisre to 'know' if there is life beyond. The expanse is enormous. Maybe humans will find something before extinction.
Don't let a mental disorder get in the way of a good story.Cossiga suffered from bi-polar disorder and depression, so his statements should be taken with a few grains of salt.

Which mental disorder did man suffer from? Oh... that's right... his occurred shortly AFTER this speech,
When his brains were disordered all over the car and street by a "magic bullet"
I cannot impress upon you strongly enough my complete lack of confidence in the entire [British] conduct of this war. I was delighted to see that the President said he was not going to enter the war, because to enter this war, imagining for a minute that the English have anything to offer in the line of leadership or productive capacity in industry that could be of the slightest value to us, would be a complete misapprehension.
Waxing lyrical about covert, infiltration, "by night", etc = all the hallmarks of 1776.
Openness and accountability just like the many affairs he had while holding office ... there wasn't anything he didn't tell the public.
His dear old protestant hating, catholic da tried to do deals with Hitler and as ambassador to Britain at wars onset, couldn't say enough about his admiration for the old dart:

this is a complete divergence and avoidance of the subject and point at hand.
What do the sins of Joseph Kennedy have to do with his sons and the positive things they intended to do for the Country which pissed off the wrong parties?
apples, gravity and trees

Modern style mobsters wanted the Kennedys out of the way. It would not have helped America's good name to show they still ruled America from the underworld whether that be Italian or Russian styled Mafia.
Old Joe just misread the political wind on Hitler and the Nazi. He figured the Americans hated wars... well, at least wouldn't go to war for Europe... so he pushed for the US to be neutral. Who could figured that Japan would bomb Pearl Harbour and got the Yanks all upset?
But young JFK, according to that doco I saw, read the politics of the time correctly and wrote essays against the Nazi very early on. That and his genuinely heroic deeds rescuing fellow sailors during WWII made his political career.
But yea, if Hitler had succeeded in that battle for Britain, or at least not try to take over the Soviets too early, all countries in the world would have made deals with his Third Reich.

Then he is in charge of a boat that he is driving at high speed, in pitch black knowing enemy boats are also plying the waves. He gets his boat sunk, two crew members dead and he swims to shore with his other mates, him with the most severely injured in tow.
On the the hand what appeared to have happened was...
Collision with Amagiri
Amagiri in 1930
PT-109, PT-162, and PT-169 were ordered to continue patrolling the area in case the enemy ships returned.[11] Around 2 a.m. on 2 August 1943, on a moonless night, Kennedy's boat was idling on one engine to avoid detection of her wake by Japanese aircraft when[12] the crew realized they were in the path of the Japanese destroyer Amagiri, which was returning to Rabaul from Vila, Kolombangara, after offloading supplies and 900 soldiers.[13] Amagiri was traveling at a relatively high speed of between 23 and 40 knots (43 and 74 km/h; 26 and 46 mph) in order to reach harbor by dawn, when Allied air patrols were likely to appear.
The crew had less than ten seconds to get the engines up to speed, and were run down by the destroyer between Kolombangara and Ghizo Island, near 8°3′S 156°56′E.[14]
Conflicting statements have been made as to whether the destroyer captain had spotted and steered towards the boat. Some reports suggest Amagiri's captain never realized what happened until after the fact. The author Donovan, having interviewed the men on the destroyer, concluded that it was not an accident. Damage to a propeller slowed the Japanese destroyer's trip to her own home base.[15]
