If he were to defect, why take a year?
Well it will keep the peoples mind off of the economic problems and it will make it easier under patriotism to pass laws and controls on the economy (higher taxes, cuts in this or that etc. etc.) if theres a war on, remember WWII thats what helped to get us out of the depressionl.
The Marshall Plan (from its enactment, officially the European Recovery Program, ERP) was the primary program, 1948–51, of the United States for rebuilding and creating a stronger economic foundation for the countries of Western Europe, and repelling the threat of internal communism after World War II. The initiative was named for Secretary of State George Marshall and was largely the creation of State Department officials, especially William L. Clayton and George F. Kennan. George Marshall spoke of the administration's desire to help European recovery in his address at Harvard University in June 1947.[1]
The reconstruction plan, developed at a meeting of the participating European states, was established on June 5, 1947. It offered the same aid to the USSR and its allies, but they did not accept it.[2][3] The plan was in operation for four years beginning in April 1948. During that period some US$13 billion in economic and technical assistance were given to help the recovery of the European countries that had joined in the Organization for European Economic Co-operation. This $13 billion was in the context of a U.S. GDP of $258 billion in 1948, and was on top of $12 billion in American aid to Europe between the end of the war and the start of the Plan.[4]

Gee, this is kind of like the pot calling the kettle black. "You can't have nukes, only we and our friends can have nuke. Don't do as we do, do as we say." The way we keep trying to make demands of Iran (as well as other nations) make ya think it's our 51st state.
