You are correct, as usual. The war could have been avoided altogether.

We DID leave the insurgents hanging. That will hurt us now.

You are correct as well. It has happened before. I think of those frantic pleas from Budapest in 1956. But it was not in our best interest, or even within our ability, to do anything about either situation.
