The people who said this were confused by the superficial situation, yes, you really look at it, after the Gulf War, the United States basically used force to those who did not enter the stream. Syria, Afghanistan......
But this is not, the United States does not have the strength to launch a medium or above battlefield, look at the Russian-Ukrainian war, small Ukraine can fight back and forth with Da Mao in a fraction of the US military's annual defense budget. If the United States is fully engaged, do not forget that in World War I and World War II, American power was its decisive factor. Some people may say that the Soviet Union resisted Germany on the Eastern Front, but don't forget, without the generous support of Lao Mei, Stalin would have died a long time ago. Without the huge assistance to the Soviet Union under the Lend-Lease Act, the Soviet Union, let alone the final counterattack, would be able to withstand the German attack or even be wiped out by Hitler. During the Great Patriotic War, the United States provided more than $10 billion in aid to the Soviet Union, which is now equivalent to $170 billion. It accounts for 20% of all U.S. foreign aid under Lend-Lease, making it the second largest recipient after the United Kingdom. The aid project covers a wide range of vehicles, about 500,000 vehicles, 15,000 warplanes and other large quantities of weapons, 2.6 million tons of petroleum products, 4.4 million tons of various foodstuffs, and a large amount of important strategic materials such as copper, nickel and aluminum. The United States and Britain also provided the Soviet Union with more than 50,000 machine tools of various kinds, which were important guarantees for the Soviet Union's continuous mass production of weapons during the Great Patriotic War.
In the original edition of Khrushchev's Memoirs, Khrushchev wrote: "Without the massive military assistance of the United States, it would have been impossible for the Soviet army to organize a single general battle...... More than 1.4 million trucks alone were received, and without these, it is difficult to imagine the movement of a large number of troops in the vast expanse of Russia. "
Even if the scale and tactics of the Gulf War 30 years ago were not necessarily achieved by Russia today.
Let's take a closer look at one of the characteristics of the United States' participation in large-scale wars, World War I, the European powers have been exhausted, or mired in war, World War II, Germany, the Soviet Union, Japan, Italy have all entered the war, and China is struggling to resist Japan. The United States is the only country that did not go to war. The United States must have a sense of security, and it must not be left out of the war by itself with another potential power.
Therefore, the reason why the United States does not launch a war above the middle level is because China, Russia, France, and Britain have not all been involved in the war.
