Uh..I'm not Eisenhower and as I said twice in my comment, I think these were ultimately dumb decisions. I am summarizing a complex event based on a few books I read, and I am telling you what the decision-making rationale was (according to the books I read) from the people that made the decisions, not that I thought they were good decisions.
My mistake for thinking you actually wanted an answer and not just to argue with the messenger. Next time, go read the book yourself if you want a comprehensive answer.
No, I understand the "stated reasons", the point is they were not the real reasons. That's like saying the motivation for the 2022 Ukraine invasion was "denazification": yes it's the stated reason, no it's not the real reason.
Again - if you read about the era and understand that the US was in various proxy conflicts with the communist USSR, and understand the motivations of the people in power at the time, the stated reason of trying to curb communism is entirely logical - although again, the reason of protecting American corporate interests was a factor too, although not the main factor.
If you read the history and can make an alternative argument that cites actual evidence, I’d be glad to hear it. Otherwise you don’t seem to know what you’re talking about.
