This the question

Why did the Cold War break out and who is responsible – the US and its running dog lackeys or the USSR and its crime boss cronies? What does dropping THE BOMB have to do with it.

This is my classmate post:

Whenthe first thermonuclear weapon was created it caused a lot ofcontroversy. With the mushroom cloud ranging from 25 miles high to 100miles across many wondered what damages could come from one bomb. Thenuclear effects that could cause harm to humans all over the globe. When theUSSR tested their first hydrogen bomb it caused an outrage with the US.After testing Eisenhower announced a policy of "massive retaliation."They believed that having as much strength and power as the other would avoidanother war. With the possibility of a global environmental catastropheeach side kept developing weapons.

Both the US andUSSR did not get along after the end of the second World War. There wasno cooperation between either and each distrusted and feared the other. It ishard to say who is responsible for the cold war itself. They were bothready to be the best and win. If they would have become allies after thewar it would be a different story. Without each other to rival off of, Idon't believe it would have become so intense. Each country was trying tobecome the best and create the biggest superpower. Without one or the otherthe war would not have started. I believe they are both to blame.
