24. You're grasping at straws there
We got our collective butts kicked out of Korea (that's why there IS a North Korea and a South Korea). You conveniently skirt the facts of the issue, forgetting that since then we didn't have much of a taste for an overt war there. That's why we use the CIA to find some ruthless and gullible idiots in country to do our dirty work for us. The Soviet Union didn't have a nuclear bomb until 1949 so we had a clear advantage for 4 years so why didn't we attack them as well?

If you had read the link I posted you would have noticed that we were occupied during those years anyway.

1953 -- Iran, Operation MK-ULTRA
1954 -- Guatemala
1954-1958 -- North Vietnam
1956 -- Hungary
1957-1973 -- Laos
1959 -- Haiti
