Karl Denninger is a fool.

On the one hand, Hitler repeatedly ordered restraint on the German navy to avoid incidents in the Atlantic that might prematurely bring the United States into the war against Germany. Whatever steps the Americans might take in their policy of aiding Great Britain, Hitler would not take these as a pretext to go to war with the United States until he thought the time proper: American lend-lease legislation no more affected his policy toward the United States than the simultaneous vast increase in Soviet assistance to Germany influenced his decision to go to war with that country.

As a result, Hitler was caught out of town at the time of Pearl Harbor and had to get back to Berlin and summon the Reichstag to declare war. His great worry, and that of his foreign minister, Joachim von Ribbentrop, was that the Americans might get their declaration of war in ahead of his own. As Ribbentrop explained it, “A great power does not allow itself to be declared war upon; it declares war on others.”

But I wouldn't expect our Russian bots to actually *know* history.

Karl Denninger is a fool.

He has an open forum/website, and is on Twitter.

You're welcome to debate him and let us know the results.

I doubt if you'll do it - just like you won't suit up for the war you want other peoples' children to fight.

Suspect you’re the one who doesn’t know any history

Denninger is a polymath with an IQ of 187.

You are a troll.
