As opposed to your alternate universe theory with a dictatorial US needed for war? Cute

Suggesting that the US did everything in its power to annihilate all of its enemies in the period between 1945 - 1949 but could not achieve it is not correct.

Thats an oversimplified opinion you are drawing despite the abundance of facts presented earlier over several comments to make you connect the dots. It frankly exhausts me to humor you given your alternate scenario theories.

What makes you think the US jumping into a firepit just after getting out of another is fun purely for possible ideological cleansing? Which may or may not succeed & has high chances of backfire

This is my last reply. Thanks

>> The comparison at the end to the Mongols feels apt, since while their empire was undeniably great

My original comment is related to this parent post. I'm arguing that the US is not like the Mongolian empire (nor any of the exceedingly brutal empires of the past Assyrian, Persian, Roman, etc.).
