The goal of the Marshall plan was to help bring a war-torn Europe back into the global economy. The United States and the Soviet Union were the world Super-powers at the end of WW2 (The Marshall Plan was signed into law after the Allied victory in WW2..), and Europe would have a hard time recovering on their own. Germany and the Axis-affiliated countries were punished far less severely than the Treaty of Versailles about three decades before: this time they would help rebuild the governments and societies one would expect from a modern culture.
The Intention of the Marshall plan was to help 'rebuild' Europe from the craters and ruins that WW2 had left in it's wake.
History itself does not change.
But sometimes what we want from it does.
You may want to reword your answer. I did not understand the way you phrased it. Apologies. :l
