Alex , please give me a summarization I can read , I graduated school before videos , I will tell you this , I always , greatly disliked a HOT LZ. :) Greetings Brooklyn , hope you had a good Easter !
THe point I make in this video is that...
A Hot War, soldiers die in the battle field, and at least make a token effort to keep out civilians
A cold War... is all about outspending your enemy till they ar bankrupt, which hoists the economic burden to the civilians of both parties.
Is the economic burden of a cold war make it any less vile than a hot war is the question I pose.
It is all vile I suppose , hot war , young people from different countries kill ea other in battle , cold war , proxies are used instead . Example , US CIA recruting out of 82nd Airborne by 1949 , 1950 , involvement in Laos , years before public is aware US Army Special Forces Advisors are sent to Nam . Economic costs are outrageous any way you look at it , cold war , foriegn aid, building men , matl.'s , hot war about the same ??
Agreed, i just something I wanted people to think about since people will praise reagan for preventing a war going hot, so they praise the idea of a cold war an alternative e should embrace instead of asking the right question, should we be at waR?Quote:
