Subject: Ok...Another Question Then....
In reply to: Chuck in ND 's message, "An excellent question" on 12:50:38 06/21/05 Tue

Going on your comment of the last 100 years....what do you think of WWI and WWII???? Do you think we should have become involved or do you think that we should have let the Europeans deal with it...but then there was Japan. I have heard of the theories that FDR let Pearl Harbor happen so he would have public support for us going into Europe. I have pondered about that a lot....I tend to lean against that theory though. The Hitler question I have done more study on. I studied concentration camps and the Holocaust a lot while livng in Europe and traveled to a lot of sites dealing with it. I don't think that the Europeans were strong enough to crush him and his machine. Perhaps the Soviets could have done it alone. If we hadn't of gone in, what do you think would have been the outcome? (Can you tell I have been playing "What if" with myself lately????) I wonder if the whole of Europe would have ended up under Soviet control, if they had been successful in crushing Hitler alone. Sometimes (actually quite often) I do just wish we would roll up the carpet strengthen our borders and defense, to keep invaders out and concentrate on our own problems. I guess that isn't quite possible in this world anymore though. I've though a lot about Switzerland that has historically tried to stay out of it all, but even they haven't managed to keep their hands clean (beautiful place though...I miss it!!!!!) I'm ready for the Savior to take over!!!
