Why did America leave Poland to become a communist country?
Taking back Poland from a mobilized Russian Army who was occupying it at the time would not have been easy. People seem to forget that the Russian had just beat the bulk of the German army . The Germans had put the majority of their forces on the eastern front at the end of the war. and German solders did not put down their arm and surrender to the Russian like they did on the western front. In Korea and Vietnam were proxy wars we thought we could win with only small loses. This turned out not to be true but was still a lot easier than fighting the Russian in Europe.
