Yer joking, right? Well it's a pretty poor joke and an insult to those who
lost their lives actually engaged in the war. I'm sure Hilter was quaking
in his boots at the thought that the US was "morally" engaged in the war.

Bleeding the British treasury dry by selling them munitions isn't the best
way of showing moral involvment. Picking up a gun and pitching in would have
been a lot more productive and would have shortened the war considerably.


What would have shortened the war even more was for the Euros to put a
stop to Hitler's marching into the Rhineland and not caving into him at
Munich. The Euros have themselves to blame for what happened to them
in WWII. They're lucky we were willing to help them out at all before
we finished off Japan.
