168. CNN Cold War - Spotlight: Dien Bien Phu Extract from the CNN series cold war , covering the decisive battle of Dien Bien Phu. http://www.cnn.com/SPECIALS/cold.war/episodes/11/spotlight/

This site is best viewed with a 4.0 browser and requires javascript Dien Bien Phu 1954 battle changed Vietnam's history By Bruce Kennedy CNN Interactive It is seen by many military scholars as one of the great battles of the 20th century and a defining moment in the history of Southeast Asia. And yet the Battle of Dien Bien Phu receives rarely more than a passing mention in most history texts. After World War II, France was able to reinstall its colonial government in what was then known as Indochina. By 1946 a Vietnamese independence movement, led by communist Ho Chi Minh, was fighting French troops for control of northern Vietnam. The Viet Minh, as the insurgents were called, used guerrilla tactics that the French found difficult to counter. In late 1953, as both sides prepared for peace talks in the Indochina War, French military commanders picked Dien Bien Phu, a village in northwestern Vietnam near the Laotian and Chinese borders, as the place to pick a fight with the Viet Minh. "It was an attempt to interdict the enemy's rear area, to stop the flow of supplies and reinforcements, to establish a redoubt in the enemy's rear and disrupt his lines," says Douglas Johnson, research professor at the U.S. Army War College's Strategic Studies Institute. "The enemy could then be lured into a killing ground. There was definitely some of that thinking involved." Hoping to draw Ho Chi Minh's guerrillas into a classic battle, the French began to build up their garrison at Dien Bien Phu. The stronghold was located at the bottom of a bowl-shaped river valley, about 10 miles long. Most French troops and supplies entered Dien Bien Phu from the air either landing at the fort's airstrip or dropping in via parachute.

Von Eschen Harvard University Press, 2004 329 pages, $60 (hb) REVIEW BY PHIL SHANNON Louis Armstrong was one of dozens of US jazz musicians sponsored by the US State Department who blew their horn for US foreign policy on overseas tours during the Cold War. Or so State Department officials hoped. What Armstrong and his jazz peers actually delivered, however, subverted the State Department script more often than not. Whilst in Africa, Armstrong was unaware of Eisenhower-ordered CIA plots to assassinate the left-wing President of the Congo, Patrice Lumumba. When Armstrong later found out, he gave vent to his feelings in his collaboration with Dave Brubeck, The Real Ambassadors From Green Left Weekly, August 3, 2005.

175. Cold War A historical exhibit of contentious SovietAmerican relations before and during the cold war. Includes links to Russian language documents relating the Soviet views of the cold war. http://metalab.unc.edu/expo/soviet.exhibit/coldwar.html

Cold War: Postwar Estrangement The Western democracies and the Soviet Union discussed the progress of World War II and the nature of the postwar settlement at conferences in Tehran (1943), Yalta (February 1945), and Potsdam (July-August 1945). After the war, disputes between the Soviet Union and the Western democracies, particularly over the Soviet takeover of East European states, led Winston Churchill to warn in 1946 that an "iron curtain" was descending through the middle of Europe. For his part, Joseph Stalin deepened the estrangement between the United States and the Soviet Union when he asserted in 1946 that World War II was an unavoidable and inevitable consequence of "capitalist imperialism" and implied that such a war might reoccur. The Cold War was a period of East-West competition, tension, and conflict short of full-scale war, characterized by mutual perceptions of hostile intention between military-political alliances or blocs. There were real wars, sometimes called "proxy wars" because they were fought by Soviet allies rather than the USSR itself along with competition for influence in the Third World, and a major superpower arms race. After Stalin's death, East-West relations went through phases of alternating relaxation and confrontation, including a cooperative phase during the 1960s and another, termed dtente, during the 1970s. A final phase during the late 1980s and early 1990s was hailed by President Mikhail Gorbachev, and especially by the president of the new post-Communist Russian republic, Boris Yeltsin, as well as by President George Bush, as beginning a partnership between the two states that could address many global problems.

Dobbins Special Advisor on Haiti, U.S. Department of State O PERATION U PHOLD D EMOCRACY , the U.S.-led, multinational intervention that restored Haiti's legitimate government, can serve in many ways as a paradigm of post-Cold War peacekeeping, embodying a number of features that have marked other peacekeeping enterprises. First, the operation proceeded in the sequence, initially employed before the 1991 Gulf War, of a UN Security Council "all necessary means" resolution followed by the creation of an ad hoc, multilateral coalition, which in turn fielded a multilateral force (MNF) that, in the Haitian case, was replaced by a UN peacekeeping forcethe UN Mission in Haiti, or UNMIH. Second, the operation dealt with an internal, not an external, conflict. Third, the objective of this operation was to restore a legitimate government and to provide temporary security support to a society moving from authoritarianism to democracy. Finally, both in its MNF and UNMIH phases, the operation made a significant, although perhaps insufficient, use of international police to supplement the efforts of its military component.
