1943, United States President Franklin Delano Roosevelt (FDR) went on a world tour after joining the Second World War on the side of the United Kingdom:

What the Cold War was/is truly about: United Nations Security Council, year one; 1946 Iran-Soviet Problem! Actually covert U.S. occupation plans for Iran & control of Middle Eastern oil?

UNSC, year one: 1946 Iran-Soviet Problem! Actually covert U.S. occupation plans for Iran?

UNSC = United Nations Security Council

The UNSC was ostensibly created to enforce ‘global peace’ with the first test of the UNSC being considered successful, but decades later it proved to be a covert U.S. operation to control Iran!

The United Nations was originally known as the United Nations Organization, aka UNO.

1946 U.S. Armed Forces map of Iran, with the disputed Azerbaijan Province highlighted, and text referring to the UNO policy towards Iran.

The ‘western’ push for controlling Iran’s oil reserves actually began during World War Two, at least as early as 1944: New York Times, October 1944; Iran’s oil problem revived by Russia…  but Americans also are involved. 

It might be the true reason for the Cold War: COLD WAR IN IRAN: THE POLITICS OF OIL

Allied Relations in Iran, 1941-1947: The Origins of a Cold War Crisis

From March through April 1946 the newly created UNSC dealt with its first international problem: British controlled Iran demanding Soviet troops to leave Iran’s Azerbaijan Province.

At that time there was no United Nations building, so the first ever UNSC meetings took place at Hunter College in New York:

The problem was resolved by the Soviets ‘voluntarily’ withdrawing troops in May 1946:

Supposedly the true reason for Soviets leaving Iran was that U.S. President Harry Truman threatened to drop atom bombs on the Soviet troops!

This is a political cartoon by Clifford Kennedy Berryman depicting Truman threatening Soviet ambassador Andrei Andreyevich Gromyko.

Decades later, publicly released U.S. Central Intelligence Group (direct predecessor to the Central Intelligence Agency, aka CIA) documents proved the UNSC Iran-Soviet problem to be a covert operation by the United States to expel Soviet troops from Iran for the purpose of allowing U.S. control of Iran and regional oil fields!

80 years later, the game is still being played.

Warning from Shah of Iran: In 1976 a warning from U.S. ally Shah of Iran, reported on CBS 60 Minutes, but nobody believed him!

Cold War: China gets ‘The Bomb’! Blames U.S. imperialism.

Cold War: Approximately 1947 (due to U.S. President Harry Truman’s Truman Doctrine) to 1991 (Operation Desert Storm, collapse of Soviet Union).

Most of China’s atom bomb testing took place in Lop Nur, Xinjiang Autonomous Region, and it was done without the help of the Soviet Union.  From 1954 to 1959, the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics (U.S.S.R.) helped the People’s Republic of China (P.R.C.) start an atom bomb program.  At the same time political philosophers in both the U.S.S.R. and P.R.C. developed conflicting ideas about the future role of global Communism, resulting in a permanent split by 1960. This was not known to most people in the Euro-centric ‘western’ world, thanks to the western propaganda machine known as ‘the news media’.

By 1960, the U.S.S.R. removed all its nuclear advisers from P.R.C. because it was feared that Mao Tse Tung (aka Mao Zedong) would consider a nuclear weapon the same as a conventional weapon. In 1961, the P.R.C. denounced the so-called communism of the U.S.S.R. as being a form of western imperialism!  From 1960 onward the P.R.C. continued their atom bomb program on their own.

The United States of America (U.S.A.) assigned the code word CHIC to China’s nuclear weapons tests.  Apparently it was not an acronym and didn’t mean anything as I’ve found nothing to indicate so.

I edited from a People’s Republic of China documentary about their atom bomb program, Project 596 bomb #1 (CHIC-1), October 1964, part-1 preparations:

Project 596 (CHIC-1), part-2, detonation at 15:00 on 16OCT1964, and ‘recovery’:

Wargames were conducted in the immediate aftermath of the detonation of CHIC-2.

CHIC-2 bomb #2, 14MAY1965:

China’s third nuke (U.S.A. designation CHIC-3) contained uranium-235 and lithium-6, making it a thermonuclear bomb.

CHIC-3, preparations:

CHIC-3, detonation, at 16:00 on 09MAY1966:

CHIC-3, results and conclusions; it is easy to survive a nuclear war as long as you are sheltered below the surface of the ground:

Live animals, even plants, were used in exposed and sheltered positions some distance from ground zero and the scientists claimed most survived, which prompted the Chinese leaders to conclude that nuclear war is survivable and that the threat of ‘nuclear armageddon’ is a “paper tiger” used by the imperialists (specifically the United States) to frighten smaller countries into submission!

“As Iran has repeatedly made clear: Israel launched war on Iran, not the other way around. As of now, there is NO ‘agreement’ on any ceasefire or cessation of military operations. However, provided that the Israeli regime stops its illegal aggression against the Iranian people no later than 4 am Tehran time, we have no intention to continue our response afterwards. The final decision on the cessation of our military operations will be made later.”-Iranian Foreign Minister Abbas Araghchi, responding to the Trump ceasefire social media post

1944, U.S. sends B-17s to Soviet Ukraine!

The U.S. Army Air Force’s 15th Air Force ‘Frantic Joe’ Task Force used Poltava Air Base, in Soviet Ukraine, to conduct what they called ‘shuttle bombing’ of Germany.  It was called Operation Frantic.

The U.S. Army Air Force’s Combat Camera Unit put together this propaganda film showing the first time use of Boeing B-17 Flying Fortress bombers from Soviet Ukraine. Prior to that, Consolidated B-24 Liberators had been used. What the film doesn’t show is the 21JUN1944 German attack which destroyed the B-17s on the ground, in fact, the U.S. kept that loss a secret until July 1949!

Part one:

Film also shows North American P-51B Mustangs, Bell Airacobras, Yaks (Yakovlevs) and Douglas C-47s.

Germany bombs the shit outta Poltava: Germany destroys U.S. bombers in Ukraine, kept secret until 1949!
