If you believe our american friends and accept deals and promises it is better to have something up your sleeve. Like Mattis said.

So just for sake of argument would you say you wouldn't trust the American government without something in writing?

Alright alright, as I already said you convinced me! I never spent much time to to read in depth abut it, just digested some general input from common TV coverage over the past years, and not even lots of that. And that movie with Costner. I can hardly claim to be an expert for this chapter of history. I am more an expert for the popcorn component involved in it.

I can certainly say your knowledge of popcorn will be much greater than mine (i'm intolerant to corn)
Although if you like documentaries i highly recommend Cold war its a 24 episode series done by Kenneth Branagh as narrator and they interview people like Fidel Castro General Giap VC POTUS Jimmy Carter, George Bush they also interview Mikhail Gorbachev and many many other top names
