A great story Tailgunner Joe about those three pivotal people.
Once again America was pretty much alone against the threat.

"'Peace rallies' throughout Western Europe, partly funded by the KGB, were frightening governments into rejecting installation of America's deterrent missiles."
Yes, the enemies of freedom and of the United States still use the same tactics. They obviously succeed, to some extent, in manipulating the unintelligent. Otherwise, such tactics would have been abandoned. Fools are their insturments and their enablers.
"U.S. President Carter was still bemoaning our 'inordinate fear of communism.'"
Anyone unintelligent enough to give serious attention to this dimwit can be expected to be manipulated by the malevolent.
"Thus we had a narrow escape."
Yes. And, if we escape the machinations of the Fools and Scoundrels of today, our escape will be every bit as narrow.
The Left is the movement of Scoundrels and the Fools they manipulate. The Democrat Party is their political machine.

I remember the violent "Peace rallies" also.
Not to say that all protesters are provocateurs, but always be wary of a subversive element somewhere within them.

Back in the Cold War days I was involved in analyzing various related information. I remember the day that, looking at all the info from the various sources, I suddenly came to the realization that the groundwork was being laid by the USSR for a first strike.
It was a sobering (and frightening) moment. Fortunately history took a different turn, although the threats facing us today may be every bit as serious.

Until now knowledge of these and other communist-era crimes has been quietly suppressed throughout Eastern Europe. "Post-communism" has been a transition to democracy in which the truth about communism has been sacrificed in the interests of social peace. As a result, communist-era public figures have survived and even flourished; post-communist networks have exercised a shadowy political influence; and, in response, cynicism about democracy has spread. The reason is that Communism never went away. It just went underground. As O'Sullivan suggests a commission to expose Communism's past our academics and media are actively rewriting history to make them the heroes and us the evil ones.
