uhh....not really, actually no, not at all. To YOU looking back it may seem like that, but if you do some further research you'll actually discover that aside from the huge number of legitimate threats flying back and forth, the cold war was mainly about the entire world taking a side (east or west) and aligning themselves with the two powers. Vietnam war, korean war, the war in afghanistan against russia, all were wars DIRECTLY related to the cold war. oh, and if you want to figure out how close the us was to being nuked, look into the bay of pigs incident.
