"Was that just a cold-war propaganda thing?"
Yes it was. We could have taken the Soviets no problem. Plus, most info. about nuclear war not being survivable is pure bs IMO.
Figured as much.... Gotta love the hype! LOL
lol people in the "red states" would survive a nuke war. The "blue areas" would be craters, and all we would have to deal with is fall-out.
