Try a consiracy. Like the Jkf shooting. Or maybe Watergate. Watergate was very interesting. Basically The leading cadidate for president was so paranoid of the other cadidate he hired spys to well, spy. (to put frankly) Anyway the whole thing blew up after he was president. I'm not sure. History is so interesting.

Gosh, this is difficult... I promised myself I'd never get involved in giving homework help (because of the reported abuse of internet 'help' happening here in the UK).\n\nHowever, the Cold War is a part of my personal history and I feel duty bound to pass on my experience to a new generation, so here goes...\n\nThe predominant feeling in my family was of uncertainty and sometimes (mobilisation of Warsaw Pact troops on the German border, incursion of Soviet shipping into our territorial waters, the Cuba Crisis etc) downright fear.\n\nMy Dad joined the Territorial Army (TA)(a bit like the US National Guard I suspect), so he'd be trained to do his bit when the 'coldness' went and we were at war again. With the threat of atom bombs there was a sort of sense that any day could be our last, so there was no real feeling of a certain future to save or plan for. The idea of 'what matters is that we are alive today, so let's make the most of that' - was a pretty widespread feeling.\n\nAt the time of the Cuba Crisis I was still at school and in almost all classes there was a radio turned on. We were given instructions where to go, and what to do in case of nuclear missile attack and shown public information films on Nuclear, Biological and Chemical warfare. Perhaps they thought young lads would be excited by the adventure - I was scared out of my wits and couldn't sleep at night...\n\nI guess we also felt helpless here in England. We are closer to Russia (well within striking distance of even their home-based weaponry) and no longer a major player on the world stage. Our future depended on how the Americans responded and I think that bred a sort of resentment, as well as adding to the insecurity.\n\nHow did it affect us? For me personally it had a similar affect to that on my dad. When I was old enough I joined the TA so I'd be ready when the time came. And even when the Cold War was more 'frozen' and the threat seemed less imminent, I still joined the regular Army. As I have already said we didn't bother with savings, house purchase, even saving plans inthose days... we just lived for today and short term goals became more important than perhaps they should have been. I think we were also less inclined to forgive, and more suspicious of people, which may have contributed (along with the stress) to marriage and relationship breakdowns.\n\nSpending went up, not because wages were much higher, but because we wanted to enjoy life while we had the chance and most people were focussed on the 'here and now' in terms of what they ate, how they dressed and so on.\n\nThis is getting far too long, but I hope I've given you some idea of our feelings and what it was like for an ordinary English family to live through the Cold War...

The Cold War was the protracted geopolitical, ideological, and economic struggle that emerged after World War II between the global superpowers of the Soviet Union and the United States, supported by their military alliance partners. It lasted from about 1947 to the period leading to the dissolution of the Soviet Union on December 25, 1991.\n\nThe global contest was popularly termed The Cold War because direct hostilities never occurred between the United States and the Soviet Union. Instead, the "war" took the form of an arms race involving nuclear and conventional weapons, networks of military alliances, economic warfare and trade embargos, propaganda, espionage and proxy wars, especially those involving superpower support for opposing sides within civil wars. The Cuban Missile Crisis of 1962 was the most important direct confrontation, together with a series of confrontations over the Berlin Blockade and the Berlin Wall. The major civil wars polarized along Cold War lines were the Greek Civil War, Korean War, Vietnam War and the Soviet-Afghan War, along with more peripheral conflicts in Angola, El Salvador, and Nicaragua.\n\nThe greatest fear during the Cold War was the risk it would escalate into a full nuclear exchange with hundreds of millions killed. Both sides developed a deterrence policy that prevented problems from escalating beyond limited localities. Nuclear weapons were never used in the Cold War\n\nDuring the Cold War, we had bomb drills in school~it was scary.  We were suppose to sit in the hall with our heads between our knees ~ "duck and cover" ~in case Russia attacked~~\nhttp://www.ilstu.edu/~mlhaerl/drill.jpg\nhttp://www.hkhinc.com/newmexico/albuquerque/doomsday/takecover.jpg\nhttp://students.westport.k12.ct.us/us/duckandcover.jpg

Where do you begin. Good luck with that one!!!\nLook at things like how 9-11 was handled, the war in Iraq, the political scandals, etc. That should tell you what you need to know.

Boy, there's a debate.\n\nShort Answer: The United States, and it did it by spend the Soviet Union into oblivion. The USSR suffered the fate of most empires -- it overextended itself and ran of the resources necessary to sustain its empire.\nBut the US did it at a terrible cost. We are now stuck with a military-industrial complex that is bleeding us drive and could very soon threaten our own superiority.\n\nSo philosophical answer: The Cold War isn't over yet, and we could still lose.

There was a time not so long ago when the future looked promising....end of the cold war, the emergence of people power in harsh regimes, popular culture's role in addressing the world's starving, the advances in science that promised the eradication of disease and poverty, etc.  Now it seems that the "old order" has reasserted itself and the most powerful governments of the world are once again committed to jingoistic warmongering activities that place us all at risk once more.  Unfortunately those human traits that are no longer required but have survived evolution to date (greed, fear, aggression) are still a driving force behind most, if not all of, world politics today.  Strangely enough, everyone knows deep down the correct path to take......just no-one has the guts.
