The Cold War was not a real war. It was a period when the super-powers tried to arm themselves more than the other. The US wanted to have a safe country for its citizens and saw any Communist country as a threat to their security.

The U.S. engaged in many satellite wars with the Soviet Union; Vietnam is one example. The U.S. believed that destroying Communism would help the world progress as well as enlighten other countries.

Deeper down, it might be noted, that the U.S. had to fight the Cold War around the world to remain the top super power.

The primary reason why the U.S. joined the Cold War was to prevent the spread of communism. The Cold War lasted from 1947 to 1991.
