68. Korea was UN
I would say the US was the definition of good during the cold war. There were oppressive governments that contained their people and then there was the west. Vietnam obviously was a different thing..

Many east germans, poles, and others would have differing opinions.

Bottom line is that unstable governments should not have nukes. If a pakistani or future Iranian nuke goes off here the result would be a massive retaliation and millions of dead people.

But that nuke could pop in moscow by chechens or anywhere. Uncontrolled nuclear arsenals are tremendously dangerous.

Please don't make a bullshit comment about our arsenal. Wackos have no access to them and if you try to drive past the gate at any military base that may have them you will be machine gunned. It happens and hits local papers every few years, someone for whatever reason, runs the gate and gets shot.
