i wouldn't disagree with you if the us was anywhere close.

we have to remember trump and his warmongering doesn't exist in a vacuum, they have expressive popular support.

They don't exist in a vacuum, but war with Iran isn't very popular. The US Empire is more and more divided.

the germans had to be stopped by the ussr, and 1945 is still a long way ahead, through a (possibly nuclear) world war.
