In WWI Russia was not communist.

Relevance? In WW I the US came into the war against Germany. Which did nothing but help Russia.

WW II ... We were not on Russia’s side.

FDR's administration was very much on Stalin's side. Do I really need to review how much stuff we sent to Stalin? Stalin later said it was crucial to Stalin not being defeated.

Tehran Conference in December 1943, Stalin: “The United States … is a country of machines. Without the use of those machines through Lend-Lease, we would lose this war.”

What is it with the Hitler fixation I see everywhere? Stalin was a far bigger monster. It is to the everlasting shame of the US we helped him survive.

A smarter policy would have been to play the two monsters off against each other so that they both lost.

Exactly, America has this strange connection to Britain. They were the Israel of the 20th century. Every move they made was backed by US weapons and money. We should have let them be in WW 1, and WW 2 would have never happened.

America has been the hammer for the rest of the world for 100+ years. To the benefit of other countries, war industrialists, and very little for US Citizens.
