weird to see soviet propaganda saying that the US are the aggressors and warmongers when at the time the US was saying the same about the soviets

The Soviets let millions of people die in famines. That makes them the bad guy here.

Because there can only be one bad guy?
Like I said, neither side were exactly saints during the Cold War. Interfering, self-centred busybodies who didn't care about anything other than spreading their own ideology while preventing the other from doing so.

Yep... I think you'll find that most Americans want to leave the rest of the world alone, in fact, we don't want to be in Iraq anymore. We'll leave you be if you leave us be, if our own damn government leaves you be. :/

Nazi Germany had similar propaganda claiming Britain and the USA to be evil capitalist imperialists. The whole point of propaganda is to label the other side as bad.

the good guys where white and the bad guys wear black,so we can tell who's who ..the soviets were clearly wearing black (spelled red) while the americans were wearing white cowboy hats
..or if you're chuck norris you're a good guy who wears black ..and sometimes white and depending on wether he's helping jesus that day ...pink (jesus hates fags)

Because when we're talking about the USSR vs USA it's clearly only a metaphor for USA vs Iraq, amirite?

I love those kinds of posters. I remember a Russian poster about the Nazi regime that had a stylized tiger fighting a bear, and the bear had stuck some kind of tool into the tiger (some farm tool probably).
