The Iron Curtain primarily divided Eastern and Western Europe during the Cold War, with countries behind the Iron Curtain including the Soviet Union, Poland, East Germany, Czechoslovakia, Hungary, Romania, and Bulgaria. These nations were under communist influence and were part of the Eastern Bloc, aligned with the Soviet Union. In contrast, Western Europe consisted of democratic nations such as West Germany, France, and the United Kingdom. The Iron Curtain symbolized the ideological divide between capitalism and communism.

Where did the Iron Curtain Speech take place?

Winston Churchill made the iron curtain speech at Westminster college in Fulton, Missouri. There is currently a museum dedicated to him and the circumstances surrounding the speech on campus. For the 50th anniversary of the speech there was a black tie dinner attended by several members of his family as well as Margaret Thatcher. I was fortunate enough to sit with her for about ten minutes as we enjoyed two glasses of wine and she lightheartedly compared her own style and public perception to Winston. There is also a restaurant/pub in Fulton named Sir Winston's in honor of that brief moment in history.

How do you prove to a Jew who does not acknowledge the New Testament that the temple curtain was torn?

A:You would find a description of the curtain written after the time of Jesus by someone who would have been familiar with the curtain. Such a person was the former priest at the temple, Josephus. He describes the curtain and its images and colours in considerable detail (Wars of the Jews, Book 5), but makes no mention of any damage to it, or any repairs. We can rule out any possibility that he was biased against the Christians because the only mention he actually makes of Jesus, in the famous Testamonium Flavinium passage, is favourable even allowing for later Christian alterations. So we are actually left with proof that the curtain was not torn at all.


What did the term iron curtain refer too?

The most recent nuclear weapon been made?

Hard to say. Many countries make nuclear weapons behind other countries backs. Some countries are not announcing when they complete testing or development for nuclear warheads, so the world may never know.
