You're right, folks don't read history any more.

The justification for our entry into all of those wars was weaker than we care to admit.

KT, and WWI set the stage for WWII. IMO It would have been wise to let the Europeans fightWW I ( one) until both sides were exhausted instead of the US tipping the scales. Woodrow Wilson said the Treaty of Versailles was unjust and contained " the seeds of another war" Don't overlook the fact that a Democratic President was at the helm at the outbreak of these wars. The American public made tremendous sacrifices during WWII and had every right to be war weary when the Korea War started. Folks don't read the right history- " Day oF Deceit Sacrifice at Pearl Harbor" by Robert Stinnett
