As in the book “Scarlet letter” Hester is judge by adultery and is seeing as someone bad.

However‚ I disagree with the statement because in actual fact‚ the Korean War and the Cuban Missile crisis were both Cold War conflicts to varying degrees and neither was more a local conflict than part of the Cold War. In Korea‚ the conflict was initiated by the ambitions of the two Korean leaders‚ and the Cold War powers were both initially reluctant to actively endorse their military agendas.
