I’ve talked with a couple of Paulbots who voice this opinion. You see, the Japanese had a right to invade SE Asia to get their resources. Because FDR cut off the sale of American oil and and the Japanese needed that oil to continue their rape of China, or something.

Japan and the United States was on sooner or later. It’s interesting that FDR was in bed with the Communists and the embargo was a ploy to prevent the Japanese from possibly attacking Russia and presenting Stalin with a two front war. FDR was probably not aware of the ulterior motives of his close advisers.

FDR still had a thing for Uncle Joe after Churchill started preparing for the war to come after WW II.
