I love it when you ask for history. We hate FDR and crowd for holding us out of WW2 when he let that Pearl Harbor attack happen.
My Dad is WW2 and that's what he thinks.
I love it when things unknown become a cat call of LIAR....stupid.
You don't know that we had already been sending ship after ship to run the wolf packs of U-boats? The first shots for us were against Germany? And we were about the Nuke Germany. So, the gloss history books are for the chumps and we the winners wrote those.
You don't know about the mega-ton of aircraft and materials we sent to Russia, again by ship? You don't know about Lend-Lease?
The fact was we didn't care enough to get into the Europe dust up to save England and France, until our President let that sneak attack happen, and like Churchill had to, to protect RADAR, FDR didn't warn the garrisons at Hawaii to hide our code breaking,. (my Dad's version)
So, LIAR,Hawaii, was
how we got in WW2, that was certainly not
why. It is a timeline, not one event.....gosh!

[TD="class: timeline"]The United States begins “Lend-Lease,” allowing President Roosevelt to send ammunition and other war supplies to England. No longer a neutral nation, the
United States now will give England all help “short of war.”
Japan attacks Pearl Harbor. Almost at the same time, Japanese warplanes attack the Philippines and two U.S. islands: Wake and Guam, which are later occupied. Japanese troops invade Malaya and Thailand and seize Shanghai. Later in December Japanese troops invade Burma and Hong Kong. Three days after Pearl Harbor, Germany and Italy declare war on the United States.

How and why did the Irish get in, Fire Pants? I'd love to hear this. Oh, wait, I'm suppose to tell you, like you did about the USA. WE we not a neutral nation before the attack at Pearl.
YOU LIE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
It is because the Irish are liars, when the say they don't type when the drink.

We declared for England before Pearl Harbor.
