Deception

Season 1 Episode 1: Star Wars: Reagan's Gigantic Bluff

President Ronal Reagan's Strategic Defense Initiative, or Star Wars, was a space-based missile defense system aimed at neutralizing the Soviet military threat. The Kremlin claimed that this would provoke certain nuclear war, but it Reagan's military deception ultimately contributed to the unravelling of the Soviet Union. It begins like a children's story, like the universal tale of the battle between Good and Evil. A gigantic farce, called Star Wars, that the former movie star, Ronald Reagan, President of the USA, set in motion to bring down his sworn enemy, the Soviet Union. The American president's last leading role was to benefit from an epic staging and setting, and would enshrine Reagan in history.
