Britain and the US are not part of the Eurasian land mass. Britain's aim was to prevent Eurasia from uniting which would endanger Britain's empire. They worked to provoke Germany into WWI to weaken them. Britain pretended to support the Whites (the rich) in the Russian revolution but in reality were afraid that they would be natural allies of the German nobility and so covertly supported the Reds. They wanted to weaken Germany and Russia. To do that they had to build up someone (Hitler) to fight Russia and damage them both. This they did in the 30s. They even had some such as the Duke of Windsor be friendly to Hitler so that he wouldn't attack Britain. Hitler tried to ransom the Jews but neither Britain or the US would pay. Fascinating book with lots of insights.
