Bear baiting or FDR's backdoor to war (allowing Japan to attack) are just theories for a deliberate cause for war while I say it is war itself that historically feeds back until the next war. So down the rabbit hole you go, as though wrongful details might turn into a Statesman solution.

The nicest thing I can say is that the Kruger-Dunning effect is alive and well. While I do not have an immediate cure for war, you can rightly assume AI does. You wouldn't like the AI cure.

Taking sides and assigning blame
is a very dangerous game.
I'm not saying you're indifferent
I'm saying you are a participant.
