The fear of falling into yet another long term economic depression ("Great Depression") which lasted for over a decade and only subsided when the U.S. went into war, led Truman and other planners to continue down the road of a war economy. The War ended in '45, and in no time we were pounding North Korean cities into dust, selling arms and helping the French in Indochina, planning the overthrow of reformist democratic elected governments beginning with Iran and other leaders like Ghana's Kwame Nkrumah, and later, we found a goldmine in the Vietnam War, a corporate adventure after the French got their asses handed to them by the Vietminh General Vo Nguyen Giap -- the Red Army Marshal Georgy Zhukov -- who beat back the Nazis in the "Battle of Stalingrad" just as Giap crushed the French in a humiliating defeat in the "Battle of Dien Bien Phu". And in no time, the "unscathed" Yanks began their attacks on a peasant population... only to go home with their heads drooping down... because... you cannot beat a people! --------------------- |
