“The idea is to try to avoid the WWII aftermath when we won the war but lost the peace.”
Huh?
Exactly how did we “lose the peace”? Nazisim, Fascism, and Japanese militarism were soundly defeated. The systems which they built were completely discredited. The “war aims” of this country in the Second World War were the elimination of Hitler, Tojo and Mussolini and the systems which allowed their rise, in which we were ultimately successful. Democracy was restored in Gemany, Italy and Japan in the aftermath of that war.
What “peace” was lost?
Excuse me, that was supposed to be directed to Chi-town. My apologies, mimaw.
Care to answer Chi-town?
