Was America a force for good during the Cold War? What about Russia? Was it a force for good then? Is it now? Why? Why not?
Great question. Pre Ike I believe that America was a force for good. The assassination of JFK started America down a course which luckily Ronald Reagan was able to succeed in peacefully defeating the Soviet Union.
LBJ and Ford both were Deep State tools. Was this why Nixon had to go? After all he was playing the China Card to break the Soviet Union. Deep State needs a Bad Man..... no Bad Man no Deep State!
After the fall of the Soviet Union I think the Deep State searched for a new Bad Man to use as a scare tactic for additional funding. In the last 20 years America has used externally the Colour revolution to create change in legal governments. Now it appears that this Deep State tool has been turn inward on Americans.
So we may have defeated the Soviet Union and won the Cold War, but then the War on Terrorism started. America has become what Ike warned about.......
