More twittery from Shapiro. Once Hitler attacked the USSR--months before we entered the war--Britain was safe and Hitler's goose was cooked.There are many reputable historians who would disagree with your assessment. In any case, when the Nazis declared war on the United States, we were obliged to come to the aid of the Allies.

Agreed. And Buchanan agrees with this, too, although you would never know that from the media coverage of his book.

The United States was effectively at war with Germany long before Germany declared war on the U.S. I cite the Lend-Lease Act (passed in March of 1941) and the use of U.S. naval vessels to escort British merchant ships in the North Atlantic in 1940-41 as evidence of this.
