The two leaders had already been paranoid of the other before, during World War II, but post-World War II spiraled into the U.S's nation-wide Communist panic.

The Truman Doctrine discussed economic and financial aid to countries who were susceptible to Communist views.

The Marshall Plan discussed ideas of assisting Europe in re-building itself after World War II, although, these ideas became fruitless after the realization that Europe's needs were much bigger than the U.S could provide.

The Eisenhower Doctrine offered that countries under attack from "threats" (the spread of Communism) could request the aid of the U.S. This Doctrine shined through when Lebanon had requested help, signaling to the Soviet Union that the U.S would not back down in preventing Communism from becoming wide-spread across Europe.

During the time of the 1960s, Germany had been split into 4 sectors, Berlin being divided in two. The fight was between Communism and Capitalism once more. Stalin wasn't excited about this either, deciding to cut off railways and any route coming into East Berlin, essentially closing off West Berlin and East Berlin from one another.

Berlin had become an eye opener for why Communism failed systematically. Life in East Berlin was rough, miserable. After Stalin had cut the East off from the West, life just got more difficult. From the barely lasting supplies, to barely being able to get by in the economy, it wasn't looking good for the civilians of East Berlin.

Their saving grace, though, was a goods drop from the U.S. With the help of the UK, the U.S brought over 2.3 million tons of supplies (food, fuel, medicine, Christmas presents). This brought upon the realization to Stalin that he was defeated, lifting the blockade across the railroads and highways.

The Berlin Airlifts were a debated topic during this time, many worrying that this would just help Communists rather than anyone else. Many were in between, saying it's within our power to help those in need, while others argued saying we have our own problems as well as aiding "communists".

Overall, the airlifts of support to Berlin would be made way either way, and thanks to this massive show of support, it gave the U.S more respect.

Korea was split into two, North (Anti-Communist) and South (Communist) Korea. This was done so that Korea could unite successfully and peacefully. Clearly, this did not happen.

The two halves of Korea were supported by two of the biggest super powers of the time, The U.S supporting North, and the U.S.S.R supporting the South. This split group between politics, and the involvement of two huge powers, was a determinant to this conflict, since Truman had gotten an okay for him to send U.N troops to help fight the battle in North Korea. He wished to punish South Korea for starting this invasion, as well as to unite the two once more; even though China saw the U.S troops as a threat.

After a long stalemate, in 1953, an armistice was signed to stop the fight. At the very end of this war, nothing had changed.

Kennedy was also responsible for a military plan, one that would strengthen the nuclear weapons they had, but never to be used and to be banned from ever using in minor squables.

Castro had managed to overtake Cuba, making it a Pro-Communist land. A big scare to the U.S, was that Cuba was so close to them, paranoid that communism would spread, as always. But, Cuba was prepared with their alley ship of the Soviet Union.

This ended in total garbage, as the U.S were caught by surprise by Cuba, not knowing they had plans still in tact to attack invaders. But, the worst part was that planes and those dropping down landed in completely off shooting spots, many landing in swamps.

The Bay of Pigs made the U.S look weak, the CIA and everyone involved stupid, humiliating the U.S.

This was one of the tense moments in the Cold War history, making the leaders walk on egg shells. Thankfully, a conference had been called in order between Robert Kennedy and Anatoly Dobyrin to discuss a mutual agreement between the Soviet Union and the U.S.

The agreement was that the U.S would back off, and leave Cuba alone, if the Soviets retraced all of their weapon supplies from Cuba. And thankfully, the U.S.S.R complied.

While at the time of his death, not many contradictions arose, they certainly did after a period from JFK's death. Such as, theories of how his assassination had too many coincidences to be clear cut as they want the public too believe.

Many called into question about Lee Harvey Oswald's capability to even shoot from the 6th story building a gun claiming to have killed JFK was found. Even a theory about the bullets, how many there were, the sound of the bullets not adding up, and how one stray bullet made its way through two men had come to the surface. Theories like the Soviet Union was even brought up, as it had been 62 years since William McKinley (our 25th president) was killed via assassination.

This continuous questioning did not helping the American citizens in calming their minds about the Red Scare.

McCarthyism rooted itself a lot from the public outrage and accusations of neighbors, actors, singers, quite literally anyone being a communist. This was one of the biggest paranoia boosters in the U.S about communism, all thanks to McCarthy's speech on Anti-Communism.

Though, his downfall was just as quick as accusing people let and right with no evidence was hard to make your point seem clear and factual.
