Outerbridge Response To Ww2

People have been debating over this topic for a long time. There are two good sides with reasons if the United States should have joined the World War II. In my opinion, the United States should have joined the World War II because the United States was being invaded by the Nazi because they were mad at America. The Nazi were also trying to rule all of Germany and we couldn't let that go and let them win right after they bombed the United States. This is why we should of joined World War II.

Politics executed a part in America entering the war also. Propaganda from both sides determined America’s decision. President Wilson did not want to go to war, but when Teddy Roosevelt wanted to run for anther term, Wilson felt intimidated and declared that there would be a preparation program and a chance that America would go to war. By taking part in the war, America was validating itself as a world power.

World War II was a devastating war that impacted the entire world. It is estimated that nearly 60 million people were killed, including civilians. The fight was between the Allies and Axis powers. While the United States tried to remain neutral in the war and not get involved. However, due to Japan’s military launching

In the beginning of the 1930’s the U.S had no desire to enter another world war or involve themselves in European foreign affairs. The U.S policy of isolationism was extremely popular not only with citizens but with government officials as well. With this being said, what factors could have contributed to the U.S involvement in World War II? . Pearl Harbor was the main factor that led to the U.S involvement in World War II despite the fact that the fact that the overwhelming majority of the country wanted nothing to do with the war in Europe. (Foner 856) “December 7, 1941—a date which will live in infamy—the United States of America was suddenly and deliberately attacked by naval and air forces of the Empire of Japan.” These were the

Another reason of why America had to participate in the war was because of America violating the “Sussex Pledge.” America supplied munitions and financial assets to the Allies, because of this Germany didn’t consider America “neutral” anymore. I believe America’s entry into the war was inevitable at this point. I believe

Imagine the world if the United States didn’t enter the second World War.  The United States was able to control the Germans, so they weren’t able to take over all of Europe; a whole continent to themselves.  The United States was attacked at Pearl Harbor by the Japanese on December 7th, 1944, because the United States cut off oil shipments to Japan so they would come to bargain.  Instead of bargaining, the Japanese came to Pearl Harbor and proved that it was a mistake to cut off the oil supply.  Another reason the United States joined the war was the Germans were sinking United States’ ships while taking supplies to England.  They were even using unrestricted submarine warfare even though they promised not to do so in years prior.

Throughout all of history the United States have always found themselves in the midst of a conflict between other nations. One of the more significant conflicts that the U.S. intervened in is World War II. “World War II was the largest armed conflict in human history. Ranging over six continents and all the world's oceans, the war caused an estimated 50 million military and civilian deaths, including those of 6 million Jews” (World War II 1). World War II officially began when the Germans invaded Poland on September 1, 1939. Poland was a country that was guaranteed military assistance from France and Great Britain if Germany were to attack. If Hitler were to invade Poland he would not only have to fight against the British and French, but he would also have to fight against the Soviets. Therefore, in order for Hitler to prevent fighting a two front war he needed to create an agreement between Germany and the Soviet Union. This agreement was called the Nonaggression Pact, which was agreed on August 23, 1939. This agreement stated that in the future neither country would declare war on each other. As a result of this Pact, Hitler was free to invade Poland without worrying about the Soviet Union. Subsequently, on September 3, 1939, France and Britain declared war on the Germans. This marked the beginning of World War II. However, the United States will not decide to enter into the war until December 7, 1941 when the United States is bombed at Pearl Harbor in Hawaii by the

During the 1930s, dictators in Germany and Italy and military leaders in Japan began wars of expansion. The three countries signed treaties agreeing to cooperate with each other. They became known as the Axis Powers. The U.S was considered neutral but they favored the allies. They had to debate on whether to join the allies or not.he came up with the answer on December 7, 1941, which was also was the beginning of World War Two. The empire of Japan's attack on the U.S at Pearl Harbor, and Hawaii motivated the U.S to join the Allies` struggle against Japan, germany, and Italy. Even though the attack was a surprise it wasn't

It can be argued that Roosevelt and the so-called internationalists claimed that a program of aid to Great Britain and other countries fighting against Germany would make actual USA participation in the war unnecessary. The debate on how involved the USA should become in the war deeply divided the country. However, when the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor, in 1941, it was inevitable that both the American isolationists and the internationalist wanted revenge, and so the USA joined the

The Germans were not going to stop instigating until the United States entered the war. Also the Germans were going to win the war if the United States did not step in soon enough. If the Germans had won things would not have ended well for the other nations. The United States was not as injured at the other nations we were fresh and clean and ready to fight. The other nations were still dirty from trench warfare and many of their soldiers had already died. The United States came in at a perfect time. These are the reasons why we the United States made the right choice in entering World War

Though the United States was the military power of the world prior to World War II, its foreign policy was one of detachment. The government was determined not to get involved in other countries affairs barring unusual circumstances. A World War provided big enough means to become involved, as many Americans became enraged with the military ambitions of Japan and Germany.

On December 7, 1941, the United States Of America decided to enter World War Two. On that same day, the Japanese had bombed Pearl Harbor which was the main reason the U.S. join the war. The day directly after that the U.S. join the Allied Powers which consisted of Britain, France, USSR, Australia, Belgium, Brazil, Canada, China, Denmark, Greece, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Poland, South Africa, and Yugoslavia. With the U.S. at war, they needed a way to motivate people so that they weren’t like Germany in World War One. Although during World War Two, the citizens of The U.S. were so impacted by the thought of war, so they helped soldiers and their government.

Although Roosevelt was a great United States President, there is the matter of how exactly the United States entered World War II. There is no debate that Roosevelt thought that the United States should enter World War II. He knew that fascism was wrong and that the Axis Powers, led ultimately by Adolph Hitler of Germany, had to be defeated to protect democracy. Also, Roosevelt knew a war would boost the United State’s economy severely. Generally, in war time there is many more jobs, which decreases unemployment tremendously. However, the majority of the citizens of the United States wanted to take an isolated approach from the rest of the world as far as foreign affairs are concerned. As much as 85% of the public opposed entering the war.4 The United States did not want to enter into another world war, such as World War I, that costs so many lives and money. When World War II broke out in 1939 with Germany’s invasion of Poland, Roosevelt called Congress to revise the Neutrality Act in an attempt to enter the war. His attempt failed. Knowing the public would not agree to enter World War II, Roosevelt took several measures to make sure that

The United States was prompted to abandon their neutral policy due to a number of things and events. Most recall the sinking of the Lusitania, the propaganda, and the Zimmerman telegram to be the events that triggered the U.S. the most. Of course, there are most definitely more reasons that the U.S. decided to enter the war but these are most significant events that led up to the U.S. entering the war. The U.S. had tolerated a lot from Germany, but these events were the deal breakers. The government finally said enough is enough and declared war on Germany and joined the Allied side.

     As totalitarian sates emerged into power, the United States got involved with World War II to help control these groups and to promote democracy in the European theatre of the world. The party with the most power at the time was the Nazi Party, led by Adolf Hitler. This socialist party was led by a powerful dictator who broke away from the League of Nations and began to conquer vast amounts of territory at a fast rate. The United States wanted to leave foreign affairs alone in fear of another world war. The United States could not avoid the fact Hitler was taking over Europe and help was needed. The United States became fully involved in the European theatre of World War II when Hitler led his
