Thank god that incompetent MacArthur didn’t get his way. About the time we put together a big enough force to take on China, Russia would have moved in Europe. We coulda had WWIII a mere 5 or 6 years after WWII.

Oh, to be sure. And things are so much better today due to Truman's inaction.

Trite. So you think Truman should have widened the Korean war to attack China also. I would love to know exactly how you think THAT would have gone.
And don’t forget, this Chinese land war fully involves our post war military. Abd The USSR would have run wild with us otherwise occupied.
Also don’t forget to include a detailed discussion on how to tell the American people that WWII wasn’t enough, and that 5 years later we needed as a society to plunge back in. The American people were notoriously ambivalent about Korea already.

But fantasy football is really fun.
