Why did the US want the Soviet Union to take out missile launchers from cuba?
Because we had been on the verge of a nuclear war with the Soviet Union for a while. The U.S had tried to assassinate Castro (Cuba's leader) during the Bay of Pigs. Kennedy also said some things that made the Soviet Leader, Khrushchev angry. So, Castro started to buddy up to Khrushchev. The U.S had several military bases throughout the word and our nuclear weapons were all aimed at the Soviet Union but the Soviets didn't have a place to be able to readily attack the U.S. Khrushchev just needed "one place" so he offered to arm Cuba with missiles. Kennedy wanted the missiles out of Cuba to prevent nuclear war.
