Yes, Morgenthau feared Germany might try a third time. He was unsuccessful in convincing anyone to carry it out, wasn’t he? Incidentally, Morgenthau’s takeaway from the war was Zionism. He entered it non-Zionist, came out of it Zionist. A world that didn’t dismantle Germany for Nazism cannot dismantle refugee nations for present-day ideological peccadillos.
