“I would never use words that ascribe morality to international affairs.”

So, you would not describe the actions of Nazi Germany with relation to its European neighbors between 1939 and 1945 as “immoral”? Or even “evil”?

How about Imperial Japan between 1933 and 1945?

Only to the extent that ALL war is immoral and evil.

But, no, the only time I take sides is when the US is under legitimate threat, or essential US interests are.

Then, and only then, do I root for a side.

The only place I see essential US interests under threat is in the western Pacific. While we have some limited interests in Europe, they stop at Germany’s eastern border.
