The successful detonation of an atomic bomb by the USSR in 1949 intensified these anxieties, leading to suspicions of espionage and subversion within the United States. Additionally, high-profile cases like those of Julius and Ethel Rosenberg, accused of espionage for passing atomic secrets to the Soviets, further solidified public fears and distrust, contributing to the pervasive atmosphere of paranoia during the era.

What was the crisis over Berlin?

The crisis started when in 1948 the Soviet Union tried to effectively get the whole of Berlin under its control. Stalin hoped to achieve this by closing to the Western powers all roads and waterways leading to Berlin, making Berling totally dependent for its food and all its other necessities from the Soviets. The Western powers circumvented the Soviet blockade by starting an airlift to Berlin, providing in well over 200,000 flights its citizens with food and supplies. The Soviets were forced by its success to lift the blockade in 1949.
