Why wasn't US a member of the League of Nations??
Because the US COngress was smart enough not to want to be hauled into your piddling European wars. And certainly not your serious wars.

What was so stupid about Versailles Treaty??
I didn't say the Versailles Treaty was stupid, stupid.

But it was stupid, thanks to the brilliance of the Europeans who dictated its terms.
The terms were such as to guarantee the Germans would resent them and attempt to escape them.

And attempt to get revenge. Which they did.

Why is WW2 called the continuation of WW1??
Because the stupid Europeans who dictated the Versailles Treaty (which the US opposed) put terms in it that would result in another war.
Hey, if you don't know more history that this, you aren't worth talking to.

Why is WW1 called a result of power politics, and quoted once again??
Because you Europeans love to play power politics and deny it while accusing others of doing it. The fact is, you taught the world the art.

And YOU STILL HAVEN'T ANSWERED MY QUESTION:
What nationality are you?

And, since you are accusing me of not answering queries, that is only one of mine you did not answer. Now why don't you go back to my post and work real hard on the others you skipped too?
