Episode 391: The Cold War
Manage episode 393689545 series 1460710
From 1950 up until 1991, the NATO nations and the Soviet Bloc nations were at war. No jets attacked each other's armies, no bombers rains death and destruction down on their cities. The "war" was cold. Massive weapons were stockpiles to a point the world could be wiped out dozens of times. Trillions of dollars were wasted on trying to get the upper hand. The only ones to benefit were the folks making weapons. Was there really a war or was it all done to scare us into following their orders.
