The idea of mutually assured destruction was a result of political and military tensions between the US and USSR. Both of these countries built up military technologies that were capable of killing millions of citizens in just a few minutes. Both countries wanted to be able to inflict a severe amount of damage on the other in case of an attack.

What is your opinion on the death penalty
Mrac [35]
