Answer:
(This is an opinionated question so there actually is no right or wrong answer. I will put what I would have answered, and you can change it up it's not what you would put :] )
Step-by-step explanation:
I would have chosen more peaceful tactics. Though it's true that the Soviet Union may have went against any peace treaties as they have plenty of times, it's ultimately a better option than spending all our time and money, that could be better spent on other things within our country, on stockpiling weapons. It has been useful in being a reminder to other countries not to test the U.S., but it's also cost a lot of money that could be put towards better causes.
I hope this helped :)
