    Wilson was a lefty, he got us into WWI, which possibly allowed the armistace and treaty of versaille to go down as it did. WWI & the bad peace was at least partially responsible for WW2. Therefore, US lefties started WW2.

    QED



    To add my devalued 2 cents...

    German warcrimes don't justify allied ones. It was essentially providence that "good" aligned itself on the side of the Allies in WW2 - Allied involvement at least at the higher levels was solely self-interest. We certainly weren't fighting for democracy - otherwise we wouldn't have played up Uncle Joe so much. No German should have fought for a Germany ruled by the Nazis. The Allied pilots should've questioned the order to firebomb Dresden.

    I wish to verify this part, I am not pointing the finger at anyone's Grandfather who fought in the infantry , air force or navy. I am pointing at people in charge. The Big Three & Co.
