1. NSC-68 This document assumed that we were losing the Cold War and assumed there was something called a monolithic communist threat which assumed that all communists were like Stalin. It also said that the US must fight communism everywhere. In order to prepare for WWIII predicted for 1954, we needed to build up our military on a massive scale. They were afraid of the domino theory, that if one nation fell to communism al nations surrounding would too.
