A broad statement. It is discussed and taught. To state it is not is untrue. Now maybe in your neck of the woods or the curriculum that was used you didn't have it. But as far back as the 6th grade I was learning about ww2 and the USSR's involvement. The scorched earth policy, Red October etc. Of course in college things were further expanded on.
It's all a bunch of Sabre Rattling. As far as the cold war it's good it is gone but, the world it seemed was a much safer place back when we knew all the Soviet nuclear material was accounted for...
