Yes, the great American Traidtion of gross indifference until the Japanese attacked Pearl harbor.
That's really not accurate. Prior to Pearl Harbor we were 1) helping extensively to re-arm Britain in their fight against Germany, 2) fighting an undeclared but active war against German U-boats in the Atlantic, and 3) placing an economic embargo on Japan in response to their ongoing invasion of China - the very act that precipitated the Pearl Harbor attack.
Don't touch the boats!
So you are saying the U.S. should enter more wars? I thought the majority have been saying we need to stay the fuck out of every war until Ukraine got invaded.
You are just full of disingenous strawmen today, aren't you?
You dropped this. Don't hide your shitty attitude or inability to defend your ideas with reason.
What part of "You are just full of disingenous strawmen today, aren't you?" Shows ability to defend ideas?
I deleted my comment because I figured arguing with someone online about it wasn't worth it. I wasnt sober when posted the first comment, but my point still stands on the second comment. They are essentially war mongering. And your idea was to what, create further argument or disruption between people when someone chose to drop it?
