Operation History — Central Intelligence Agency

Here in America, intelligence played a vital role in the Revolutionary War for independence, and there’s a virtual treasure trove of exciting stories and brave people and events that have shaped our country, often behind the scenes. https://www.cia.gov/kids-page/6-12th-grade/operation-history/index.html
The Berlin blockade and subsequent airlift proved to be a public relations bonanza for the United States in the Cold War against the Soviet Union. The American military provided humanitarian relief to Germans -- whom they had recently fought on the battlefield -- while the Soviets used starvation as a means to control a population. Contemporary newspaper accounts describe the Berlin crisis around the world, as well as provide a glimpse into the nationalist upheavals that ended the 1940s.

Nuclear Terrorism - Blast Maps

The threat of nuclear terrorism is not limited to New York City or Washington, DC. While New York is widely seen as the most likely target, it is clear that Al Qaeda is not only capable but also interested in mounting attacks on other American cities, where people may be less prepared. Imagine the consequences of a 10-kiloton weapon exploding in San Francisco, Houston, Chicago, Los Angeles, Charlotte, or any other city Americans call home. http://www.nuclearterror.org/blastmaps.html
