And that was because we didn’t intervene quick enough or because the Western allies didn’t do what they were suppose to do and enforce the provisions of the WW1 treaty forbidding Germany to rearm?

>>>>Both, the later causing the first. Just like the hapless UN of today, as I said it would be more ideal if the UN did it’s job too, but they’re clearly CLEARLY NOT!

Either way just pulling back to the western hemisphere the way you prefer would have meant all the world’s oil reserves would be in either Imperial Japanese or third reich hands, not to mention Jews would no longer exist outside the Western Hemisphere.

But drink that kool-aid!

The UN is an illegal organization that the US should not belong to.

It is a violation of U.S. sovereignty.

But the UN came out of the failure of the League of Nations, which the US did not wisely join, because the League was unable to stop aggressive nations, just as the UN is incapable of doing.

We were not 'pulling' back anywhere.

Britain and France could have easily dealt with Germany, which was really their problem and not ours.

But they chose not to so they paid the price and we had to bail them out again!

As for Asia, Japan was running on borrowed time having bit off more then she could chew.

The Japanese had to destroy our Pacific fleet and hope that we would weary and sue for peace.

They underestimated the U.S. resolve to fight a war to its conclusion no matter what the losses.

It is amazing what actually declaring a war will do to obtain victory.

I guess that is why we don't do it anymore, we might actually have to win.

Go learn some history.
