From a renowned reporter.

After World War II, it seemed the world was ready for disarmament; there was much work done on plans to reduce nuclear stock piles. The former Soviet Union had developed its own nuclear arsenal. Many hopes were pinned on lessons learned after the U.S. had dropped the first atomic bomb on Hiroshima, and then Nagasaki, in Japan. Those historic horrors led the Western world to begin serious negotiations on disarmament.

So historically inaccurate I'm at a loss for a sarcastic comment.

The Russians had a nuclear arsenal after WW II? WW II extended into the 1950s? Both of the above? Helen really is as dumb as she is ugly.
