    It’s a shame that the US did not completely remove the regime under the Korean war tbh.

      That would’ve entailed a full on war with China. Which some people - most notably MacArthur - were ok with. I think his plan involved nuking as much of the PLA as possible.

      Personally, I think we should’ve done some version of Operation Unthinkable and eliminated the USSR. Alas.
