The Cold War was a crucial conflict in American history. At stake was whether the world would be dominated by the forces of totalitarianism led by the Soviet Union, or inspired by the principles of economic and political freedom embodied in the United States. The Cold War established America as the leader of the free world and a global superpower. It shaped U.S. military strategy, economic policy, and domestic politics for nearly 50 years.In A Brief History of the Cold War, distinguished scholars Lee Edwards and Elizabeth Edwards Spalding recount the pivotal events of this protracted struggle and explain the strategies that eventually led to victory for freedom. They analyze the development and implementation of containment, détente, and finally President Reagan's philosophy: "they lose, we win." The Cold War teaches important lessons about statecraft and America's indispensable role in the world.

The western powers, including the US under Woodrow Wilson, created the USSR. Although Wilson had nothing to do with the abdication of Russian Czar Nicholas II, who was succeeded by a provisional government led by Alexander Kerensky, Wilson’s War by Jim Powell mentions that Wilson lend money to the Kerensky provisional government to stay in World War I when the two choices it had were get out of the war, or get toppled. Wilson even gave Leon Trotsky a passport to go to Russia knowing that he would start a revolution there. If Wilson did not do that, mass murderers Lenin, Lenin’s right-hand man Leon Trotsky, and Lenin’s successor Stalin would have been forgotten men, World War II and the Cold War would have been spared, and the United States would not have had to fight the Korean and Vietnam Wars for the freedom of other peoples in order to contain the Soviet Union. And that is why Woodrow Wilson was the worst president!Communism is not pro-Russia, for its purpose was to collapse it. In 1920, Winston Churchill wrote Zionism vs. Bolshevism in the Illustrated Sunday Herald, in which he talks about the JINOs (Jews in name only) who did the Russian Revolution. According to government records in America, Britain, and the USSR, 85% of the Russian revolutionaries were raised Jewish, but later came to hate their Jewish identity. Since the time of Moses, the biggest enemies of the Jews came from within, not from without, and Jews are in need of a messiah. The Bolsheviks did attack synagogues just as much as they did churches. When asked to identify himself as Russian or Jewish, Trotsky said that he is neither. Lenin’s father was Central Asian, and on his mom’s side, his grandfather was Jewish and his grandmother was German/Swedish, while Stalin was Georgian.
