I'll look in the 1986-? article, but it seems that this article should mention the Salvadoran Civil War, quite parallel to the Nicaraguan conflict (which is mentioned). Lawikitejana 07:53, 1 November 2006 (UTC)
Or at least not as established thinking. I believe the consensus is that the Cold War was unbroken from 1945 to 1991, or thereabouts. There were times when relations relaxed or became tense, but never was there a period where relations were sufficient so say that the Cold War had ended (such as from 1975 to 1985).
A Google Search I performed did not find any other references that linked the term "Second Cold War" to anything what is described in this article. It may appear in one book, but a solitary reference cannot make a sweeping generalisation that there was ever two or more Cold Wars. Kransky ( talk) 14:26, 28 July 2010 (UTC)
Added a more general sentence including links to the the parties in the Afghan wars. There is more complete discussion on those pages of civilian deaths, which the previous statement oversimplified, using a POV source. Better sources and discussion are available on the referencedwiki pages. DJ Silverfish ( talk) 01:22, 22 February 2014 (UTC)
What about "the Americans" TV series? All of this series is devoted to this phase of the Cold War. Shouldn't it appear under "Culture and media"? — Preceding unsigned comment added by 50.133.145.196 ( talk) 03:57, 13 March 2017 (UTC)
Could anyone explain what the green Xs in Northern Ireland and Israel/Palestine represent? I don't really see much relevance to the cold war in either case. Also, I was wondering why Soviet allies have two light red colours and what they represent. — Preceding unsigned comment added by 195.99.56.136 ( talk) 00:04, 4 July 2019 (UTC)
