The Cold War is over but Cold War thinking survives.

The Cold War has ended for America.

The Cold War is over. The kind of authority that the presidents asserted during the Cold War has now been diminished.

The Cold War went on for so long that it bred a kind of worldwide military establishment. Even when budgets went down in the early and mid-nineties, it didn't really affect it.

People nowadays don't know about the Cold War and the U.S.'s old rivalry with the U.S.S.R.

Remember, we know the end of the story of World War II and the Cold War. But day by day, living in fear of the Nazis and then in fear of the Soviets, the outcome was by no means certain.

Without perestroika, the cold war simply would not have ended. But the world could not continue developing as it had, with the stark menace of nuclear war ever present.

The Cold War isn't thawing; it is burning with a deadly heat. Communism isn't sleeping; it is, as always, plotting, scheming, working, fighting.

The 'Cold War' impinged on the daily lives of Americans. The wars after 11 September 2001 have been fought without the general American population having to make any sacrifices. It goes on, and so do we.

I don't live in the Cold War. Some people maybe still live in the Cold War, but this is their problem, not mine.
