re: If you were POTUS in December 1941

Very good point about the bombers, maybe we are better served sending more P51s and 47s to Europe, and medium attack type bombers for when the time to deal with Ivan comes.

He will eventually defeat the Germans and if Stalin pushes west he would meet a US Army and Allies much better able to deal with him. Heavy Tanks. More and better Antitank weapons. Swarms of ground attack aircraft and superior fighter aircraft.

We deal with Chairman Mao too. He must never take power in China. After the Japanese surrender we make sure Chiang comes out on top one way or another.

So I've defeated the Red Menace. But I know what's about to happen in the Middle East come 1948. Do I let there be a State of Israel? Do I find the Jews another place to settle? What do I do?
