WW I was probably where it went wrong for the West? And it all seemed to happen becuase the Germans understood the need for operational quickness. The mobilization systems “locked” countries into time hacks that can’t be stopped. But even after the Europeans got into it, the US should have never gotten involved.

WE must move on however. No use dwelling too much on the past. Best to learn from it and move on. While it is painful to think what might have been, we must do as “Don Draper” would do, we must “move forward.”
