BroJoeK, Glad to see you have exposed yourself as a big fan of Soviet agent Harry Dexter White: “the Nazi regime and Germany itself needed to be utterly destroyed.” White’s Morgenthau Plan was implemented as much as possible until 1947. German industry was being dismantled, its POWs enslaved and its civilian population starved. France and Italy were on the verge of electing Communist governments. That is what inspired the Marshall Plan. There were many reasons for the Second World War. The unique evil of the Nazi regime was not one of them. According to Max Horkheimer of the Frankfurt School anti-Semitism was much worse in the U.S. than in Europe. I would suggest you read Diana West’s American Betrayal but I know you are not interested in learning anything that contradicts your beliefs. You would silence me if you could. Eventually people of your ilk will be able to do that.

Vehmgericht: "I would suggest you read Diana West’s American Betrayal but I know you are not interested in learning anything that contradicts your beliefs.

That's total nonsense.
Common sense and simple sanity would silence you, if you had any, FRiend.

In my small library of WWII books, I have two which make similar points to your Diana West's.
They are Patrick Buchanan from 2008: "Churchill, Hitler and the Unnecessary War -- How Britain Lost Its Empire and the West Lost the World", and
Guido Giacomo Preparata from 2005, "Conjuring Hitler -- How Britain and America made the Third Reich."

Buchanan argues that the US should have stayed out of WWII and forced Britain to make peace with Hitler, while Preparata goes even further, claiming that the US & Britain actually put Hitler in power so that they could then destroy Germany.

Point is: I'm very familiar with wild conspiracy theories, and they're all just nonsense.
To see this, you have only to honestly answer the following questions -- was it Stalin or Hitler who first invaded:

  1. Austria
  2. Czechoslovakia
  3. Poland
  4. Denmark
  5. Norway
  6. Holland
  7. Luxembourg
  8. Belgium
  9. France
  10. Yugoslavia
  11. Greece
  12. Romania
  13. Bulgaria
  14. Libya
  15. Egypt
  16. Crete
  17. Soviet Union
  18. Holocaust of Jews, Gypsies & other "untermenschen"
  19. Declared war on the United States?
So, whatever else you may believe, remember this: there's a reason it's called the Second World War and that reason explains why leaders like Roosevelt, Churchill and Stalin were dead-set determined there would never, ever, be a Third.
And that's why Nazi Germany had to be utterly destroyed, even at the cost of unholy alliances with dictators like "Uncle Joe" Stalin.

As for your concerns about the Democrat Left's war on America, I'm sure I agree, but remember this: the choice in, say, 1941 was not between Left (Stalin) versus Right (Hitler), but rather between the far-far Left (Hitler) and the far-far-far Left (Stalin).
Both sides were anathema to American ideals of liberty and limited Constitutional government, but only one side (Hitler's) declared & waged war against the United States.
