You people in America call it a Cold War, but our war is a little too hot for us to call it a Cold War...we don’t mind however, we are fighting for the security & protection of our lives & property. Sometimes we are fighting for the very life of our nation. So long as all the other democracies in the world are fighting for the same principle they are fighting for us & we are fighting for them. So, we are not fighting alone & in the end we will all come out right.” Korean War Outbreak; 1950; Note: Pre-19Sep50 when Johnson was replaced by Truman.
