Answer 2

The Cold War caused the Warsaw Pact which really wasn't a pact since it's members were forced to join it. NATO was around before the Berlin Airlift which could be considered the beginning of the Cold war.

The cold war was in reality going on near the end of the second world war but got intense when Russia sacked Berlin and began to consolidate all the territory it had liberated instead of giving it back to the respective nations Germany had conquered. The Russians could have argued that the US did the same in the Western part of Europe, we didn't. With the exception of Germany which we did occupy but we kind of had to. They had just been stopped after Killing 7 million people in a few short years, they needed a baby sitter.

Answer 3

Sorry 'bout that. [I don't know.] To guess: The NATO perpetuated a more discernible mistrust of the Stalinist. The Warsaw Pact elevated mistrust of the U.N. Security Council. By 1947, the charter of the United Nations and declaration of human rights were ratified by the American government (And, a number of other countries). The first five included the former Soviet Union. The CCCP went ballistic while the west was perfecting supersonic (those were elements of the "Cold War"). [Ulysses (B.C.) recognized that the side of the island with the largest and fastest triremes (navy) would be victorious]. A similar theme pervades outer space research, lightning fast rockets, etcetera. A lot of the dilemna between Stalin/Communism and the "west" is drawn from numerous events [probably, events which precede the assassination of Czar Nicholas]. What's more--the Great Depression was a global event whose depths were perpetuated by inflation in the eastern-European banking. The first part of The 20th Century was characterized by mistrust throughout the world.
