How on earth is it more damage? As revdisk said, the Soviet support for revolutionary movements / communist proxy states across the world helped to cause thousands of your dead and millions of everyone elses.
The question was not WRT the proxies. We have declared a hot war against Orthodox Islamic terrorism, something we never did to the Russian commies. I suspect that is because the Russian commies never killed us by the thousands.
Also, how on earth can WW2 be described as "The War to Save Russian Communism", given that half of your war was spent against a nation that (a) attacked you and (b) wasnt fighting the Soviets until right at the end when the Soviets invaded them? Even the half that was in Europe didnt really kick off until some time after the Soviets were clearly winning.
1. The USSR, along with Nazi Germany, was the proximate cause of WWII. No great outcry to get involved when the two sides f ht esame totalitarian coin were chumming it up. After Hitler nearly defeated the USSR, though, the commies, lefties, and sympathizers in gov't were all sorts of eager to jump in.
2. Half of America's WW2 effort was
not against the Japs. Only a
small fraction of total American WW2 resources were deployed against the Japanese. The VAST majority was deployed against Germany. Were it not for MacArthur's tender pride, the Japanese could have been handled with only the USMC and small fractions of the Navy and Army Air Corps, making the ratio even more skewed.
3. The Soviets never would have come close to surviving were it not for American material aid, period. They would have been a mess of mass starvation and inadequate logistics that would have been rolled up to the Urals.
4. More square miles of Europe were under totalitarian rule after WW2 than before. We kicked the crap out of one devil only to pave the way for the next.
5. We did not go on to finish the job of destroying totalitarianism and deliberately let the Soviets penetrate farther into Europe had our leadership not deliberately delayed.
Net result; after all that blood, money, and effort; was an enlarged and strengthened evil Russian communist empire. Pardon me if I do not cheer the result.
