—Roosevelt should have done the same in Europe.(/sarc)—

Maybe you’re kidding on the square. The defeat of fascism set the stage for Communist domination of much of the globe for two generations.

Are you one of those Buchananites who think that "we fought the wrong war"?

So what?

Didn't Germany and Italy declare war on the U.S. immediately after Pearl Harbor? You would've had FDR (and the American people) ignore that?

As it turns out, fascism and communism were both evil -- fully deservant of defeat. And they both were. Both by the US.

Why on earth would anybody express regret, or second guess, this decision?

Sorry....but that is pure poppycock. Communism has not ‘dominated’ the globe at any time in history. Socialism(of which the fascist and the communists were both memebers) is another story.
