Mr. Ansel112...You must be young enough to have been educated in one of our history revisionist government run schools..In my time, this country was very worried that the tensions between the U.S. and Russia would set off WWIII, and a nuclear war at that. Our children at school had to rehearse getting under desks, etc., for protection, should we be attacked. People built bomb shelters and the instructions for that were available from state governments. The Cuban Missile Crisis, under President Kennedy, was about that very thing. I think this article was informative and thought provoking..I liked it. Additionally, I remember the threat against Queen Elizabeth a few weeks ago. Those things had better be taken seriously and I am sure that one was.

I'm not very young, I have military discharges signed by both Nixon and Reagan, and I think this author is an idiot for not knowing how hot, real, and deadly the "Cold War" was for us.

He probably doesn't realize that Putin is restarting it.
