General MacArthur (American military commander in charge of the UN task force repelling the North Korean invasion of the South) was strongly against communism. He ordered (without the authorisation of the US president) that US troops would push the North Koreans past the 38th Parallel and then would invade North Korea and unite the whole Korean peninsula under a capitalist government. This turned into a war on Communism as oppose to just defending a nation against a foreign invasion. However, this made the Chinese start to fear a US invasion of their land and they entered the Korean War, causing the USA to eventually sign a ceasefire.
