I don't know about this. There aren't too many people in Germany, Japan and Italy crying for revenge over the way WW2 ended. Backing off and leaving the people that cause these problems in power is exactly the kind of halfway thinking that ended wars for centuries, and caused the persistant cycle of violence. If WWI had ended the way WW2 ended, one might have been enough.
