I think a few here is fond of the old Franklin Delano Roosevelt, but looking into the actions that he did during the years into the prelude of World War 2 was really interesting. At his behest, he supplied Joseph Stalin and the whole Soviet Union of military equipment and intelligence to prepare for the Nazis. I really don't think that Americans during at the time was on board with supplying another enemy, the communists, with their own handmade products just to hold off the Reich.
Let's not get started with the internment camps he did against Americans of Japanese lineage after the Pearl Harbor attacks, how the Democrats were tight-lipped about it to this day, and the communist project that the former First Lady, Eleanor Roosevelt did in Arthurdale, Virginia, that was still left untold on how many people died due to starvation on that god forsaken experiment of hers.
Wasn't that office set up after Pearl Harbor?
I agree that FDR did have many commies in his inner circle and the man himself had far leftist leanings.
At the same time FDR openly admired Mussolini but he never spoke positively about Hitler.
Isn't it possible that all of these following statements can be true at the same time?
FDR admired the efficiency of Mussolini's fascist regime. FDR praised Mussolini openly. Mussolini praised FDR openly.
FDR used Pearl Harbor as the reason for the U.S. to go to war.
FDR was influenced by a certain wealthy group of influential elites to attack Germany as well as FDR having many communists in his inner circle and FDR being a communist sympathizer himself.
All of these things can be true at the same time.
Used?
U.S. intelligence likely knew that Pearl Harbor was going to happen and FDR could have let it happen in order to push the U.S. into war.
