Firstly, talking about Wiki definitions is the wrong thing to focus on.
Secondly, the Cold War is a misnomer, the US was very much involved in an open confrontation with the Chinese+Soviets in Korea, and to a lesser extent with their proxies in Vietnam later on.
Yes, the Korean war was fought under the aegis of a resolution issued by the UN security council, but it was a 'hot' war, and part of a broad push against Communist influence.
- wissler 14y agoFirstly, I wasn't only talking about Wiki definitions, I had a more basic argument that is being ignored. Secondly, the Cold War has two possible referents among political scientists (see the link I posted), and the one in question is not the Soviet one. Now, these are basic facts that you are clearly wrong about. But I will get downvoted anyway. There is something very wrong with you people.
