We all KNEW what was at the end of any line that got out of control, and that knowledge always seemed to allow for "cooler heads" to prevail before that happened. The Cold War did in fact have a modicum of certainty that kept decision makers in check - today is far less certain.Anonymoushttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06966485299899285868noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-81019564860861986962017-04-13T01:02:45.321-04:002017-04-13T01:02:45.321-04:00Ja - what clear lines were there during the cold w...Ja - what clear lines were there during the cold war? I'd state the opposite. ..as for example the Cuban missile crisis, bay of pigs, Vietnam etc etc showed these lines were not clear, nor established prior, but discovered on the go, killing many and in the case of the missile crisis nearly us all in the process... the cold war was not fought on a clear, but instead foggy day. ..in media, in the air, on land, on and under water...nothing was certain, almost nothing was known, MAD was a newly introduced concept etc etc. ..Anonymousnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8519488391496270073.post-31835604360366885672017-04-13T00:30:39.009-04:002017-04-13T00:30:39.009-04:00"People are clearly nervous on where the worl..."People are clearly nervous on where the world is heading". Well, that's a little bit understandable.<br />During the cold war there was "clear lines", but now the world is just a huge mess hardly understandable with so much antagonism. It was exactly the same situation before WWII.Jacnoreply@blogger.com
