In the US, the House Select Committee on Assassinations concluded that John F. Kennedy and Martin Luther King were both very likely assassinated as a result of a conspiracy, not by "lone nuts". The HSCA had "posed large problems for the Cabal", which they addressed partly through a policy of assassination.[1]

Each of the "superpowers" and its team of allies needed to outdo each other by creating ever more and deadlier weapons, creating a kind of perpetual war for perpetual peace, with the warring parties engaging mainly in covert/proxy wars.
