B. both the United States and the Soviet Union were willing to build weapons that were increasingly dangerous to stop the other side from attacking.

During the Cold War, both the United States and the Soviet Union were fearful of the other's capacity for attack in case of a war. Particularly, they were scared of the consequences of a nuclear war. As a consequence, the idea of "nuclear deterrence" was adopted. This rested on the assumption that a credible threat of retaliation would forestall an attack. Therefore, both countries built increasingly dangerous weapons to stop the other side from attacking.
