What if Japan didn't attack us, should we have minded our own business when 50 million people were getting killed? If so, wouldn't this have been a little cowardly?
most of those 50 million died AS A RESULT OF US ENTRY INTO THE WAR.
Before FDR manipulated us into the war, the casualties were mainly sustained by Russian, Japanese, Chinese, and German soldiers. The war would have ended in 1942 had we stayed out.
Once we got in, massive killing of German and Japanese civilians balloned the death totals....not to mention 400,000 dead Americans whose lives were wasted.
It was the West that turned a minor conflict between Germany and Poland (in which Germany was justified)...into a senseless bloodbath that saved communism and established the roots of the present day EU, UN, IMF etc.
Fucking seriously? nevermind. I am not even going to say anything. Just gonna shake my head in amazment.
Sincerely,
Slutter McGee

America was not minding it's own business before Pearl Harbor, in fact we were financing the Allies, and the Nazi's at the same time. Even During the period when the United States had officially entered the War, American interests were financing the Third Reich.
An American company even sold a patented additive to the Nazi's which was used in the Gas chambers at every death camp across europe, making it possible to kill millions of people in one the most grotesque ways ever concieved.
So you tell me, should we have minded our own business?

IBM supplied them them the numbering system for the prisoners.
And we had the Flying Tigers training in China before we entered WWII. etc. etc.
Stalingrad was the turning point in WWII.
Not D-Day.
I think Europe could have possibly fended off Hitler without us.
And who knows how history would have changed if the Soviets had completely expended themselves in the process.
if i am correct we kinda forced japan into war by using trade sanctions!! we basically cornered japan into war!!
Some will say that corporations can do no wrong and that they were just supplying a market demand.
There would have been no WWII had there never been a WWI.
Wilsonian democratization had just as much to with it as FDR.
