Perhaps they were thinking about the waste of WWI-The War to End All Wars! Perhaps they remembered that entanglement in that war and at that time would expend another hundreds of thousands of American lives.
Perhaps they could see what would happen at the end of a second world war where Russia came out the clear winner taking Eastern Europe and all the machinery, technicians and scientists they could steal and kidnap.
Make no mistake about it; if Germany hadn't been treated so shabbily at the end of WWI there wouldn't have been a II.
Had that thinking been extended to the formation of the United Nations that disgusting body wouldn't be occupying valuable land in New York.
Radical Lindy? No way. Cautious Lindy who when the inevitable warmongers finally got their way served in the Army Air Corps with distinction.
Your rant is straight out of the books by your neo-Nazi hero Pat Buchanan. Buchanan’s family (and possible yours) were probably present at the Madison Square Garden “American Bund” rally in February 1939 where swastikas were displayed and “Sieg Heil” was sounded. The leader of the Bund, Fritz Kuhn, and many of his true believers were later arrested, interned, and some were deported. Lindberg and the more radical members of the America First Committee were traitors and should have been arrested as well. Lindberg was no hero.
