Treaty with Japan? Are you nuts? What treaty? Japan didn't attack Russia because Zukov taught them a lesson in the 20s. As for whose side who was on, let me remind you, it was Germany who declared war on America, right after Japan attacked. As for America staying out, well Mr. Buchanon, where do you really think America would be today if the Soviets had fallen, to be followed by the English and Chinese....do you think the Axis would just forget about those poor Yanks across the sea? Yeah, right. They still had a chip on their shoulder for you after WW1 and the Japanese had an honor deal to finish with you after old Admiral Perry's broadside diplomacy. You are living in a fantasy world in that case. And as bad as Stalin was, at least he didn't kill you for whom your great grand parents were.

Umm yes- Russia and Japan had a non aggression treaty all throughout WWII. Japan Didn't attack Russia not because of Zhukov's victory but because it had other aims- much to Hitler's chagrin! Yes Germany declared War on the US- but we were already fighting them formonths at sea actively in support of Britain which we were expressly not supposed to be doing by act of Congress!

America spent 15 percent of our wartime effort fighting Japan. That war would have been over in one year if we put our full effort behind it and didn't have Hitler to fight and a Soviet Union to supply!

As for Germany coming after the US? Are you nuts? Or have you been watching those stupid propaganda films from the war years that show the Axis taking the East Coast and the Japs taking the West? Such foolery! Even when the Japs bombed Pearl Harbor they had no intention of invading the United States! They hoped we would sue for Peace after they dug into their East Asian Holdings! And Germany invading America? That is insane as well! Just where would they land? Hitler never even contemplated that or any of his Generals. Please- stop it. America was never threatened by Germany. And we could have beat the crap out of Japan in a year and been home in time for Christmas.

And as bad as Stalin was, at least he didn't kill you for whom your great grand parents were.

No- he and Lenin just killed people because of whom their grandparents were and parents- did they once own a shop? Did your grandparents "exploit" workers (employ help) in their cottage industry? Why does that peasant have a tin roof and the rest only wood and hay? Is he a kulak? Nice.
