That is some weak tea, in the face of documentary evidence of FDR & his coterie actively plotting to get us involved in a war with Japan and Germany. In case you were wondering, FDR's conspiracy (reality not theory--look at the docs) was successful.

For the record, the smart play for WWI: Stay out of it and let them fight to exhaustion. Same with WWII. If Churchill and Chamberlain had British well-being in mind, they would have never declared war on Germany and let the two regimes in the east duke out. But, Churchill had an expensive lifestyle. Lucky for him, he had some (((good friends))) who would lend or give him even more money for some teensy little favor here & there.

Indeed.
