(1) I am beyond pissed off right now, my country, your country sent men overseas to fight for freedom. In 1917 we were late to the game, Woodrow Wilson, a Democrat, wanted neutrality. Then the Germans sunk the Lusitania and Americans joined up on their own.
(2) then WW 11, again a nonintervenionist stance was taken by another Democrat, Franklin Roosevelt who banned Jewish people safe haven in the US and delayed entry into the conflict while Europe was being ravaged. Again Americans joined on their own initiative.
(4) our fathers and grandfathers have given their lives for freedom around the globe yet the world has decided that freedom doesn’t exist. They will track us and our health “for our own good”. They will demand compliance “for our own good”.
(5) the hell with that, this is America, we decide whether we take the risk or don’t, we don’t hide from anything. Our ancestors didn’t despite what those in Washington told them, they made their choice and some of hem died for it. But it was their choice. That’s America.
(3) It took Pearl Harbor for the FDR to get involved despite the 1938 Kristallnacht pogrom that caused 30,0000 Jewish men to be put in concentration camps.
