Joint Chiefs opposed MacArthur and praised caution in policy
The joint chiefs pressed to oust MacArthur citing rash command and distrust of his judgment. They argued three main reasons including his disregard for guidance, risk from Manchuria bombing, and undermining universal military training by urging Chiang Kai-shek troops. Italy considered aiding Korea, Pravda labeled Drew Pearson a warmonger, while Truman labeled the author of this piece a communist.
