Nuclear Crisis: The Escalation Of The Cold War | M.A.D World | Timeline

The Cold War: When nuclear weapons kept the entire world on the edge of M.A.D. - Mutually Assured Destruction. As Russia, China and the USA flex their military muscles on the global stage today, ‘M.A.D. World’ takes a close look at the last time we were threatened by the might of world superpowers: The Cold War.
In this episode:
- Military bases spring up along both sides of the iron curtain. Many are supplied with bombers and highly trained pilots on constant alert to drop a nuclear bomb on the enemy.
- The Hungarian people rise up against their soviet occupiers and win a few days of freedom before Russian troops arrive to brutally suppress the uprising. Thousands of Hungarians try to flee across the border to Austria.
- The corrupt Batista regime is ousted by Fidel Castro and Cuba becomes a Marxist state on the doorstep of the USA. American attempts at destroying the Castro regime culminate in the humiliation of the Bay of Pigs invasion.
- The world listens in fear to the rhythmic beep of Sputnik, the first man-made object in space. This Russian triumph is a chilling statement on the advanced technology of the Soviet Union. Then the USSR wins again by putting the first man in space.
- Overnight, the Soviet Union uses barbed wire and troops to seal off West Berlin. The leak in the Iron Curtain is sealed and refugees now have no means of getting from East to West. The barbed wire soon becomes a huge concrete wall which is the scene of dramatic escape
attempts.

    I was in the nuclear and chemical weapons unit the gentleman referred to. One small piece of information not told was the Warsaw Pact had a 6:1 superior advantage in ground forces. The option to having the deterrence of special weapons was a much larger standing army which is vastly more costly and more volatile option. Eisenhower was wise when he warned of a large military complex and made the decision to deploy the special weapons. The threat of the Eastern Block was soberly real.

    Not true. Warsaw Pact never outnumbered NATO during the entire Cold War. 60% of the former Soviet Unions forces had difficulty with the Russian language, reserves were too far in the Urals to arrive in a quick European conflict; Warsaw Pact nations were not considered loyal to the Soviet Union and the technological advantage of NATO were too costly for the USSR to match. In 1989 NATO/US excluding 500,000 French Forces had a total of 8.5M troops facing 4.6M USSR/Warsaw Pact forces poorly equipped/badly trained and poorly integrated.

    @@juicyfruit4378 I don't disagree that we had a vast technological advantage. But to think they remotely had numerically had equivalent forces is to call the entire military apparatus of NATO a liar. To add French forces into the equation is naive. They weren't ever considered in our war plans because they have not been a part of NATO since 1966. We couldn't rely on them for a good reason. We even had to radically rework our war plans because of the ineptness of the Dutch. I have witnessed it personally and they were ate up from the neck up. III Corps Capstone mission was changed. They were the least capable but defended some of the most important terrain. You also don't understand the Eastern Block order of battle. Sounds like you are reading "facts" from a book.

    @@buggyapp Sorry but no - France downgraded its NATO position in 1966 by Charles DeGaulle but never withdrew from the Alliance and in 2009 fully reintegrated into NATO. During the entire Cold War period 500,000 French Troops were an integral part of NATO - they were not there as tourist. The Dutch were always a part of NATO and was mainly used as a staging area until 1967 when it’s forces were fully up to par - it’s main responsibility was to have tied down enemy forces in the northern Germany region of Hamburg until NATO secured the entrance/exit of the Baltic Sea. The Netherlands was never an unreliable ally nor can it’s position be compared to to military upheavals of former Warsaw Pact and its forced participation by the former Soviet Union. Has it occurred to you that you’re not the only one here with prior military service in Europe? For you to suggest I’m making “textbook” comments is not only premature, but an assumption you shouldn’t have made without knowing who you’re conversing with. I retired in 1995 as Director, European Electronic Security Division/Cryptologic Support Group to NATO, Colonel. 1995-2005. Deputy Director, European Technical Center, NSA, GG15, Wiesbaden/Mainz Kastel 2005-2013; Chief, Special Projects , NATO JSIR Intelligence Fusion Center, SES-1, and now retired as a consultant to NATO/US State Department living as a permanent residence in Frankfurt Germany. I have served my entire career in Europe as an Intelligence Commander, Defense Attache - London, Bonn, Berlin, Athens and a 12 month stint at the US Embassy in Moscow 1987-1988. I wasn’t selected for these positions because I’m tall, handsome or dashing - I’m none of those. I do however posses a Doctorate Political Science, Stanford University with emphasis on International Relations, 30 years military service, Intelligence/Cryptologic linguist (German, French, Spanish & Russian) and NATO Defense Attaché. In short, I believe I qualify to be a reliable source/expert regarding NATO, former Warsaw Pact/USSR history. I possessed a Top Secret Security Clearance with access to Sensitive Compartmented Information (SCI) Cosmic Top Secret (NATO) CWNDI, SIOP-ESI and internal Agency VRK clearances with the White House Communications Agency, Bolling AFB, DC. On a special note, I was assigned to the NATO Tactical Fusion Center Börfink which controlled, postured and oversaw ALL US/NATO military assets regarding USSR/Warsaw Pact forces, border incidents and exercise Reforger where I participated in the last one in 1993 after returning from Berlin-Marienfelde when the wall fell - I was not in Berlin as a tourist - rest assured. Now that I’ve introduced myself, please give me the pleasure of knowing you, military service, rank achieved, academics, integration at NATO, defense attaché experience if any? Assignments in Germany ( I’ve been to every base in Germany) or NATO/US units which specialized in defense posture/structuring as that’s where the decisions are made in lieu of ”boots on the ground“ personnel who do as their told by higher echelon. I really look forward to our future communications and I’m certain you do too. Will Bender, SES (retired) Consultant NATO/AAFCE

History has always been a favorite subject of mine so when I was talking to her regarding this matter it was like I was talking to a walking history book. Hate would be a proper word to describe what she felt towards the Russians. She was forced to speak the Russian language over the Hungarian language which only fueled the hatred that the Hungarians had towards the Russians even more.

    My understanding is, that the Hungarian representatives were told by the Soviet reps, that they would pull their tanks out of the city and return to Moscow. (which they cleverly did, as the many Russian troops were sympathetic and often took the Hungarian side) once they were seen to be withdrawing their forces, the Hungarian people became more relaxed, However, the Soviets had assembled a tank force who were alien to the Hungarian people, and had no sympathy, and they quickly drove into Budapest, slaughtering as they went. It was by dint of an invasion force, bereft of former occupiers, who had lived a far freer and better provisioned life in Hungary, that they were able to subdue the Hungarian people. The bitterness toward the US was a desperate one. As the belief and trust toward the Americans was in earnest indeed.

    Folks It's like one my favorite songs Keep Talking from my favorite bands Pink Floyd when Stephen Hawking did his famous Commercial in the 90s saying as long as Mankind keeps communicating the human race still has a chance to turn it around no matter how close we get to another catastrophic global disaster like now we face in 2023. Like some of my family who faught in WW2 so this never happens again unfortunately they now see all the ingredients are again like it was in 1937 only with hypersonic nukes and way more powerful and devastating warfare weapons on terrifying scale never thought possible it's almost incomprehensible to the mass destruction this will cause you think the most disturbing and scary movie in history threads about a nuclear war aftermath and a radioactive ☢️ wasteland on a apocalyptic scale that even surpasses another great WW3 ending of a movie . On the Beach made in the 1950s.

    The more I watch these documentaries, the more I'm convinced that the USA was the aggressor in virtually every (cold war) confrontation. They were spoiling for a fight and pushed and prodded the USSR until they got a response, then they'd jump up and down yelling about how the dog bit them. As my mother always asked when I said a dog bit me, "what did you do to the dog?" Stalin wasn't an expansionist (Trotsky was!) and as such he was happier to just close the USSR borders and stop the rest of the world getting in. But the USA wouldn't leave it alone, constantly provoking! And they didn't learn anything, did they? STILL provoking conflict in countries they should keep they noses out of! Bad USA!

    An important element of suppressed history is that Japan was actively seeking to negotiate a surrender as early as 1944 and throughout 1945. In April 1945, the war party of Japan was diminished, and a peace group headed by Kantaro Suzuki took office with the mission of ending the war. The Secret MacArthur Memorandum Revealed In a front-page article that appeared in The Chicago Tribune and Washington Times-Herald in Aug. 19, 1945, writer Walter Trohan reported that seven months earlier (on Jan. 20, 1945) President Roosevelt had received a 40-page memorandum from Gen. Douglas MacArthur outlining five separate surrender overtures from high-level Japanese officials just two days prior to his departure for the Yalta meeting with Stalin and Churchill. Admiral William D. Leahy, FDR’s chief of staff, leaked the MacArthur communication to Trohan in early 1945 for fear it would be classified as top secret for decades or even destroyed. The authenticity of Trohan’s article was never challenged by the White House. Former President Herbert Hoover personally queried Gen. MacArthur on the Tribune’s story and the general acknowledged its accuracy in every detail. The memo showed that the Japanese were offering surrender terms virtually identical to the ones ultimately accepted by the Americans at the formal surrender ceremony on Sept. 2 - that is, complete surrender of everything but the post of the emperor. Specifically, the terms of these peace overtures included: Complete surrender of all Japanese forces and arms, at home, on island possessions, and in occupied countries. Occupation of Japan and its possessions by Allied troops under American direction. Japanese relinquishment of all territory seized during the war, as well as Manchuria, Korea and Taiwan. Regulation of Japanese industry to halt production of any weapons and other tools of war. Release of all prisoners of war and internees. Surrender of designated war criminals. Historian Harry Elmer Barnes in an article titled “Hiroshima: Assault on a Beaten Foe” (National Review, May 10, 1958) wrote: The authenticity of the Trohan article was never challenged by the White House or the State Department, and for very good reason. After General MacArthur returned from Korea in 1951, his neighbor in the Waldorf Towers, former President Herbert Hoover, took the Trohan article to General MacArthur and the latter confirmed its accuracy in every detail and without qualification. It is generally known that as WWII wound down, brain-addled President Roosevelt was surrounded by pro-Soviet elements. In February 1945 at Yalta, FDR was prepared to subject all of eastern Europe to the communist Soviet Union. He blathered: “I just have a hunch that Stalin is not that kind of a man. I think that if I give him everything I possibly can and ask for nothing from him in return, ‘noblesse oblige’, he won’t try to annex anything and will work with me for a world of democracy and peace.”

    6:56 "The B-52 should make any aggressor think twice before making trouble." Since 1952, those words are still true. My 85 year old dad was in the USAF from 1956 to 1960. He remembers seeing brand new shiny B-52's being rolled out onto the tarmac for the first time in 1956 and couldn't even imagine anyone going to war with the US at that time. The with ongoing modernization upgrades, the B-52 could be 90 to 100 years old before it is finally retired! Incredible the original airframes are still rock-solid. Things were just built to last back then
