> Who started that war, and why?

Funny you ask... It was called the cold war, you might want to look it up. US was a pretty big player there.

So you would blame the US for cold war? What would you have done instead?

Before cold war, there was WWII, and communist revolutions.

I don't want to defend any particular war, I just think it may all be a bit more complicated than a simple "we shouldn't have started any wars".
