Every war has protected our freedom in my opinion, as tyranny and terrorism always pose a threat and even today spill blood in Murica

Pearl Harbor was about weakening our Pacific fleet.


And was an act of aggression against the United States - which fulfills rule #1 in the so-called "just war" theory.

I think its pretty obvious that the 2003 Iraq war kept us free from attack from Saddam's "nookulur" weapons. Thanks Bush Jr!

World War 2's victory didn't keep us free, because Hitler wanted only to be Master of Europe.

Nazi Germany had no desire to conquer the USA.

Would you say that the USA was duped into fighting a bloody war?

Roosevelt lied and people died.


We had stayed out of it combat wise until the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbour, are you suggesting we should have only fought in the Pacific theatre? Because it's pretty crazy if you think we shouldn't have retaliated against the Japs.

None. We haven't fought a war for ourselves since then.

Just having a strong military alone keeps us free.
