“We should have destroyed the Soviet Union DURING WWII by diverting the defeated and Hitler-less German military with the allies driving the a-hole Stalin to Hell.”
The troops were exhausted and we,and Germany, were running out of young men to draft————who would you suggest should have barreled ahead into The Soviet Union?

Plus the Red Army of 1945 was not the Red Army of 1940. The Red Army of 1945 was a tough, experienced force lead by very capable commanders.
The United States probably would have won a US - Soviet war in 1945, but it would have been an awful, very bloody mess. Atomic bombs might have been necessary.
The US public never would have stood for any of that. Truman would have been impeached and removed from office.

how about the Empire of Great Japan? Korean peninsula was officially part of Japan during WWII. Maybe many russophobia Koreans were willing to die for Emperor Hirohito.
