Who ever said the Russians were smart? How about the political intelligentsia in America for almost 40 years? Can you think of another reason that we spent countless hundreds of billions of dollars building nuclear weapons, trying to improve our submarine design and funding CIA operations to learn about and de-stabilize the second most powerful regime in the world post WWII? Regardless of the eventual outcome of the Cold War, at the time it was very real and very scary.

I think ignorant is more apt than offensive.
