Because you're absolutely right. The T-1000 has the historical knowledge and the super advanced AI to fully mimick any leader, general or military personnel. It's not unlikely to assume he could fire away some kind of ballistic missile or take over enough computer systems to do a mass scale firing that would provoke the third world war earlier.
It never occurred to me that his mimicking ability together with his liquid state and intelligence could be oh so much more dangerous if it were applied elsewhere. I feel like a total idiot for not even having CONSIDERED that.
That doesn't ruin the movie. The terminator could have done more damage, but it doesn't want to. The terminator's very existence depends on judgement day happening. The goal of the terminator is to eliminate John Connor and otherwise change as little as possible so that the humans still invent skynet.
