    But where did you grow up that they didn’t even cover WW2 in school?

    Buddy, the US was supplying the Nazis (well bothd sides) as a “neutral country” up until Pearl Arbor. A whole two years after the start of the war.

      So you think we should do the same now?

      The other person is arguing for inaction, I’m saying it’ll get worse if we ignore it like in ww2 and try to stay neutral…

      And you tell me we tried to stay neutral in ww2 like it’s some kind of “got ya”?

        Your reading comprehension needs work. I made no such comment. I simply pointed out that your premises was historically false.

      Sweet jesus, talk about reading a headline and not the whole srticle. Go back and see what they were supplying and in what quantities to each side.
