Those who remember Washington's cold war culture in the 1980s will recall the shocked reactions to Reagan's intervention.

It's a near miracle that nuclear war has so far been avoided.
I'm a Bristol person too, I lived in Bristol during the war.
The tactic of leading people into... a war that doesn't make any sense by telling them they are under attack, and if they raise any objection they're unpatriotic, is a very old tactic. And it doesn't intimidate me.
