The Cold War doves in Europe should be required to read this article and then the actual Soviet files in Poland.

Especially those doves living in "Munich, Cologne, Stuttgart and the site of NATO headquarters in Brussels, Belgium."

I remember those idiots following out military convoys back in the 80's and giving us American soldiers the finger. We protected them, and saved them from the Soviets, but look at the thanks we get.

Its time we gave Europe the finger.

I'm sure we had plenty of plans to Nuke them too. In fact I know we did, since I helped put together the mission folders for flight crews to use in implementing those plans. Of course those were not in the context of a European War, but rather a Global Thermonuclear War.

BTW, did y'all know there's a city or town in what is now Uzbekistan, but was then part of the Evil Empire/Soviet Union, called "Nukus". I didn't either, until one day in about '84 or '85.....

It provided a good laugh to break up what was otherwise a not very funny task.

"The map foresaw the nuclear annihilation of Poland..."

Why?

The Plan also called for use of multiple 50Mt Tsar Bomba, the biggest tactical nuclear weapon ever built

[JudgemAll]

Why were these still secret in the first place? Didn't Berlin wall fall long ago?...sheesh.

[Prost1]

I don't think anyone should get carried away with this report. There were many tactical plans that were floated around including some that showed Russia conquering Germany!

So, to have a plan that shows Poland turned into a nuclear waste zone to prevent Nato from engaging Russia should be no surprise.

The only important thing is this: Reagan "Mr. Gorabachev, tear this wall down!". And the wall came tumbling down.

But gee, lots and lots of lefties have told me that the USSR posed absolutely no threat to us, and that the dirty capitalist war-mongering, etc, etc, USA was the only threat to world peace. In fact, they're still saying it.
