      Now they are tornado warning sirens. I was born in 1961, they were called civil defense sirens and in school we climbed under our desk with our hands behind our head. Not only would that have been useless, I can’t even sit on my knees now let alone curl up. It scares me now, at the time it was just normal.

    Since 1945, there have been no hot wars between any two g20 members. Globally during WW2, an average of over 39,000 people died every day as a direct result of the war. That about the same as all of the people killed in Gaza in 6 months.

    Russia was not the “Soviet Union”, it was a client state, it is currently at war with another former client state. NATO is still NATO, just a bit larger then it was during the Soviet era. A complete and total collapse of your government is a pretty big indicator that you lost.

      The plan to invade japan was in the last months before the bomb, Truman had agreed with Stalin, that Russian troops would start being deployed into Japanese-conquered land during the war around the mid August, this also played an important role in the dropping of the bomb. Truman didn't want Stalin sitting at the negotiation table with the Japanese.

    • @AdamBoarman
      @AdamBoarman День тому

      Before the bombs were dropped, Operation Downfall was planned, beginning with an invasion of the south islands in November 1945 (operation Olympic), followed by the north in 1946 (operation Coronet).

    Soldiers of the Soviet Union and the United States did not do battle directly during the Cold War. But the two superpowers continually antagonized each other through political maneuvering, military coalitions, espionage, propaganda, arms buildups, economic aid, and proxy wars between other nations.
