May those brave American serviceman rest in peace and God bless the pilots of the Enola Gay!

You honour that?
What sort of sick, evil, Hitlerite are you?
Originally posted by Sam The ShamIs your knowledge of history really that bad ? In no way was the war with Japan a product of isolationism. In fact, had the USA adopted such a policy in regards to Japan it is very likely that a war with Japan would not have happened. The Dutch, English and Americans had placed an oil embargo on the Japanese, which would have completely starved the Japanese economy. It's choices were either to stop the war with China to get the embargo lifted or total war to conquer oilfields for themselves. Without this embargo Japan would have been perfectly happy leaving the USA alone and just buying the oil from the Western powers.
69 years ago, December 7th, 1941 The United States had the largest anti war, isolationist, pacification movement it has ever had. Ignore the Japanese Imperialism, let Europe solve it's own problems was the cry. Stick to our own borders and stay out of the business of other countries.
And a few hours after Pearl Harbor all that changed.
I'd like to see a return to our pre-WW2 values.

Originally posted by utherpendragonProvoked ? As in "They put the embargo in place so the Japanese would attack" ? In that case no. The goal of the embargo was to stop the Sino-Japanese war, however, the USA was probably perfectly aware that putting the embargo in place could lead to war.

Originally posted by utherpendragonIm often amused by the delusional fear and paranoia which emanates from your posts but I have to say that you seem to have become obssessed about these "progressives". What exactly makes you think there is some huge conspiracy devised to "brainwash" children out there?

Originally posted by utherpendragonThe United States then as now has meddled all over the globe. We are an ambitious superpower and since conquering people isn't right, and often complete isolationism isn't right, we meddle. We're safe from retaliation geographically and militarily. We have inherited this from the British Empire, though we've tried to restrain the outright conquest over the last half of our existence.

Originally posted by generalissimoBecause there really are several small conspiracies to brainwash our children out there. Progressives refers to one. Christian fundamentalist home schooling is another. The logic is that everyone is biased, including all educational systems and all educators, so it's best to just pick the "correct" bias and brainwash the kids with that one.

Originally posted by AThousandYoungPerhaps uther is an advocate for the elimination of the educational system as a whole, absence thereof would certainly hinder the progressive plan to brainwash the children.

Originally posted by generalissimoNo, the rich people need to be able to hire professionals with the preferred bias. But the public educational system is a tool of the statist progressives, or so the conspiracy theory goes.
