Thoughquestions of credibility are still debated by political scientists, history is littered withexamples of false threats conveniently ignored.During the Cold War, the Soviet Premier Nikita Khrushchev repeatedlythreatened to seize West Berlin. But Soviet actions betrayed his threats as empty,allowing Washington and Moscow to quietly sidestep the risk of war in Germany. Henever felt politically forced to invade.
