"A possible mirror of Molotov-Ribbentrop works fine with you?"

We've just been pissing in the wind by helping the Europeans ever since WWI. There would have never been a Molotov-Ribbentrop pact if in 1917 let the Allies didn't know we'd join in. The European "victors" would have had to deal with reality rather than pretend they'd defeated Germany in a war only Germany was responsible for.

It seems to me it's the infatuation with Europe among American elites that has greased the skids for this country to go down the tubes both morally and economically.

Wilson ran on the re-election slogan “He Kept Us Out Of War”. So leaving the Lusitania unavenged was a price worth paying? like leaving Chris Stevens and other US ambassadors unavenged these days?—and we all see “the world’s” reaction to the latter.

Having the Kaiser run Europe from 1918 onwards would have meant more war—”unrestricted submarine warfare” was exactly what it said on the label. (It’s also wise to lay off the revisionist history.)
