Swan-Upmanship was created in 2004.

There is no German equivalent of one-upmanship. The word can be best translated as die Kunst, den Anderen um eine Nasenlänge voraus zu sein.

This question needs clarification. Which attack? Pearl Harbor attack by the Japanese? They reacted with sadness, anger, confusion and a desire to take revenge on Japan.

Other than spies, espionage, and sabotage; the arms race (one upmanship on the other) & and winning friends (a form of legal bribing-supplying arms & equipment to win them over) were the only tactics employed.

One must remember, the cold war was not a war. It was a term.
