Surprised there isn't a thread on here about how the USA planned the attack to get them involved in wwii.


The theories don’t hold up when you consider the US (who had been aiding Britain and USSR through lend lease) declared war only on Japan… FDR was clear about not including Germany in the declaration. Hitler took it upon himself a day later.

A war only on Japan would have potentially been devastating for Britain and russia.

FDR wanted the war with Germany. Vast majority of congress and the US populous only wanted to go after the Japanese until Germany declared war.
