A whole host of quote "Middle East" wars occurred involving Israel from 1948 up thru 1973. With the last one being the most dangerous...US gas shortage...Israel getting hurt more than it ever did, etc. But Israel was not player in the cold war. The only nations that counted were the US, USSR, Red China, the Korean War, and Vietnam Wars in that order.
The Cuban Missile Crisis involved the USSR.
If a crisis didn't involve the above listed nations, it was simply "part" of world events. The oil (gas) crisis, from the Yom Kipper War of '73 was a logistical crisis...gas prices went from 29 cents a gallon to $1.00 a gallon over night. Even and odd numbered license plates were the norm in America...pushing your "gas hog" IN LINE to the gas pumps caused many US car owners to switch from the full sized gas guzzlers to the Chevy Vega, Ford Pinto, and Toyotas and Datsuns (called Nissons today). Try pushing (by yourself) a full sized pick-up truck up the drive way from the street...the poor drivers waiting in line behind you have to get out of their own vehicles to push you up the drive way from the street. Or they just got mad and honked their horns at you and cussed you out. Big vehicles caused big problems in 1973/74.
