There is always a way to avoid war, but sometimes events overwhelm people. It can be argued that if the Potsdam Conference and the Yalta Conference had not included an agreement between the US and the Soviet Union to split the Korean Peninsula, the war never would have happened. It can also be said that if Secretary of State Dean Atchison had included South Korea in his statement about the US Pacific Defense, the communist North Koreans may not have thought they could win, thereby avoiding the war. Possibly, if World War 2 had ended with a conditional surrender of the Japanese, granting them rights to Korea, the war would not have happened. There are many ways the war could have been avoided, just as many things, through hind-sight, could be avoided.
