You are so charmingly naive.

Had Britain fallen, Russia would have fallen. Soon thereafter, Japan and Germany would have divided up the rest of the world, Asia, Africa. More Lebensraum in South America, which would have left North America the lone democracy standing.

Would you care, then?

Had either one of them tried to invade the Americas, we should have been involved. And if they had invaded, they would have had to figure out how to get an army across the ocean without being annihilated.

But again, please explain how our overseas involvement has prevented what many of you seem to far the most: the invasion of our homeland?


SERIOUSLY?

The world would have been fascist within a generation. The Americas are isolated, and the Fascist sympathizers go to work on the banana republics in South and Central America. Ten years, MAX, and one or more of them would have gone Fascist, and invited the “liberators” in. Perhaps you forgot about the strong level of Fascist sympathy among the Spanish?

That leaves North America with its belly exposed, unable to trade, and literally the economic might of the entire world, run by Germans and Japanese set agains it in armed conflict.

Then, THEN, would you act?
