Re: Cause of the Korean War ?
Well, conservative circles both in UK and USA considered SU as a much more dangerous threat than Germany. The problem was with the other wing represented by such people like Atlee or Roosevelt, who were pro-Soviet, well beyond any logic. Many of them were Soviet agents, many were communists opposed to Stalin, nonetheless still actively working against 'imperialistic west'. That happens they have got a lot of influence, Roosevelt being a president from 1932, I believe, and blocked any anti-Soviet decisions, or even any 'tools' that could have possibly be used against Soviets in future (eg. OSS). Anyway, I would use much harder words than naivety or stupidity in their regard.
