Comment RSSDocumentary Time: The Cold War
December 22, 2008 # 3:54 am # video # 5 CommentsI do not know if I posted this before, but this is probably one of the best documentaries on the cold war that I have ever seen. This is a very, very long series, but well worth the watch. One little complaint is the lack of other countries such as communist Romania, Albania and the like. Without further ado, enjoy the videos!

Hello Michael,
Thank you for your comments and visiting DPRK Forum.
Perhaps I could make some kind of preface, but one has to make their own mind on how to interpret the videos. It may be bad politics to one, and good to another. That I cannot control. What I can control is my own views, and my own view is, the videos are pretty good.

Infrastructure? What is he thinking? The US has some of the best infrastructure in the world. Anyone who has traveled can see that. Only Europe has better… and not ALL of Europe.

Funny, a spam comment gave me an idea for a posting.
Amazing.
Great documentary! Was very helpful for my history class! Thank you!
