This leads us back to the mccollum memo which stated that with rising powers of Germany and Italy in the Atlantic, we could not afford to let Great Britain crumble or the Japaneese to grow much more in the Pacific theater! We were on a two front war also, but we had Great Britain and Russia as EXISTING allies still in tact. Not to mention freedom fighters throughout the Asian counties that were already invaded by the Japaneese.

so germany lost the war because their army was stretched too thin? why that sounds an awful lot like how american forces are spread thinly in iraq and afghanistan. bush wouldnt dare call for a draft and it ISNT because he "doesnt need them yet" or the army "has enough" it's because it's political suicide.


and you were probably one of the people who thought it was all fine and dandy after all.
