United States Anti-Semitism in the United States (and elsewhere)

[Marduk]

The business interests and the righteingers basically wanted Hitler and Stalin to eat each-other.

Hope is the first step to disappointment.

To this number you can include early libertarians like Any Rand.

"these same groups are screaming that the United States has no right to interfere in the internal affairs of Vietnam"

In fact that's quite a clear indication of "isolationism" being a tactical hat various groups put on to shield their own favored actors in geopolitics, and throw away when it comes to fucking up ones they don't like. Same story with modern isolationists.

And while I disagree on her views that America has profited nothing from the 2 world wars,

On the other hand there's also a bunch of interests who would have profited a lot from America not joining the world wars, and those were big supporters of isolationism.

she had a point, "isolationism" is a favorite term used by liberal/"progressive" globalist smear merchants and their coterie of special Interest groups.

Who gives a fuck, when the other side puts on the isolationist hat, the others use it.
If you think this will make me give a tiniest amount of sympathy to the coterie of special interests of "alternate globalists" you are greatly mistaken.

As to this lady Bowhatsit that advocated for Rand to join the pro-war bandwagon, well:



Wasn't that some hyper-racis movie or something...

Do i need to remind you how much i care about this sort of stuff and tell you exactly where you should stick cheeky bullshit like that when trying to join a discussion with me?

I remember the AFC in the 40 to 41. 18 months they existed.
They were isolationists. Commies, Facists, the like.
Who wanted the US to stay out if WW2

The UK elite wanted the same.

Furthermore, you are ignoring the fact that they were neither piecenicks nor supporters of Stalin or Hitler, but rather fairly shrewd business people, industrialists and other prominent, patriotic people that supported actual liberty.

Frankly, keeping the USSR on life support and getting Japan to open a second front would have been a better tactical solution to both the Soviet and Nazi problems.

Just had to let the war go on for longer and let all sides attrition themselves to a level where they would be easy to roll over.

Replace "isolationism" with muh liberal hegemony/muh unipolar momnet/muh Russia/shining city on a hill/other dumb messianic gibberish and you get the other side.
the anti-messianic right is at least consistent.

On the other hand there's also a bunch of interests who would have profited a lot from America not joining the world wars, and those were big supporters of isolationism.

Whataboutism, ahoy.

Who gives a fuck, when the other side puts on the isolationist hat, the others use it.

The anti-war stuff in the USA during the LBJ years came from some conservative and republican intellectuals, including George Kennan, the pro-war side, even by Johnson's own admission came from the China Lobby in the USA with its desire to spread muh christian values to all those illiterate Asian peasant heathens.

And probably some pressure came in in the form of money from his buddies from Brown & Root, aka modern-day Haliburton.

Do i need to remind you how much i care about this sort of stuff and tell you exactly where you should stick cheeky bullshit like that when trying to join a discussion with me?

Yet another in a long list of whataboutist hand waving pseudo-arguments.

Do I need to remind everyone that you tacitly admitted that you'd support a barrel of toxic waster for office, as long as it is against Russia and their allies?

This is the reason why you ree against America First/"Isolationism"/a lot of people on here that oppose your pet causes.

I've said this long ago and no one disproved it. But it would have been possible for America to just let the Soviets and the Nazis fight each other. There is no reason why that tactic would "fail" It's just that internationalists refused to allow that to happen.

It would have been possible to just let the Soviets and Nazis fight each other and when one gets the upper hand America would provide support to the weaker. Obviously it would be a horrible loss of life and a humanitarian disaster that would be bad for Eastern Europe but from a geostrategic perspective that does not matter does it, America's position would be supreme without having to lose a single man.

The isolationists were fascists and commies who didn't want the US to get invovled because the fascists and Commies deserve Europe.

The US was going to get invovled in the war eventually.
It would have just been when we wernt prepared and were fighting a veteran force that now has the entire population of either Europe for the commies or Nazis.
Now...that also means we would of never had the nuke
The nazis may have, ir would have been further along and that would be the end of it.

The USSR had better demographics, a larger military and more territory to relocate its industries to.

They also had very good intelligence on their enemies and a bunch of plants high up in the FDR administration.

It likely would have won eventually, but playing balance of power with it and the Germans could have yielded a situation where both sides were massively degraded.

The big problem with all this was that:
1) Hitler was a reetard.
2) The German deep state proved to be too cowardly and weak to get him to cooperate and follow a sane plan.

 

[Zachowon]

The Soviets only won because the US supplied so much to them
Multiple Soviet leaders of the time, including zhukov and Stalin both said that the US logsitcal support saved the USSR.

So...had we never sent them trucks they would have potentially never made it as far as they did.

Are you really in the millitary? If so I weep that you fall for propaganda so easily and can't even comprehend basic divide and conquer strategy.

I said GIVE AID TO THE WEAKER SIDE. WHEN RUSSIA IS ON THE BACK FOOT HELP THE RUSSIANS AGAINST THE GERMANS, WHEN THE RUSSIANS GET STRONGER AND ARE PUSHING THE GERMANS BACK, STOP HELPING RUSSIA AND GIVE AID TO GERMANY UNTIL GERMANY PUSHES BACK AGAINST RUSSIA. RINSE AND REPEAT!

It would have been harder for them, but if you look at the actual stats about population, age, war production and resources you will see that they could have stalemated and severely bloodied the Germans.

And then you add to that the fact that the nazi idiots were trying to genocide all slavs and instead of being greeted as liberators they got partizan activity and persistent sabotage wherever they occupied ground.

Literally anyone could have run that war better than Hitler, perhaps even Biden.

Actually, hold that thought, need to post this in the AH section.

>internationalists
All sides were different types of internationalists. Isolationists were just useful idiots other sides wielded to argue against siccing the huge US economic power against their favored side.

It would have been possible to just let the Soviets and Nazis fight each other and when one gets the upper hand America would provide support to the weaker.

Either way someone would have won, and would have had no reason to not take whole of Europe then.
Enjoy Cold War on crack.

Obviously it would be a horrible loss of life and a humanitarian disaster that would be bad for Eastern Europe but from a geostrategic perspective that does not matter does it, America's position would be supreme without having to lose a single man.

And then you make even a small mistake in assessing who is weaker or getting the supplies through ocean gets too hard with no local support, enjoy Cold War on crack against Soviet or Nazi controlled Europe. With "strategists" like isolationists, who even needs enemies.
They don't give a fuck what's doable, feasible or the details of how it can or cannot be done, they just make up a convenient for their beliefs scenario and want everyone to expect all sides involved to play according to it.

No, I understand how logistics and politics work unlike you

I said GIVE AID TO THE WEAKER SIDE. WHEN RUSSIA IS ON THE BACK FOOT HELP THE RUSSIANS AGAINST THE GERMANS, WHEN THE RUSSIANS GET STRONGER AND ARE PUSHING THE GERMANS BACK, STOP HELPING RUSSIA AND GIVE AID TO GERMANY UNTIL GERMANY PUSHES BACK AGAINST RUSSIA. RINSE AND REPEAT!

Okay. How to you think the US would be able to get weapons to Russia or Germany without the other getting invovled.

and that isnt how wars work. Real life is a lot diffrent then in games. Maybe in HoI 4 coukd you do that.

In real life you would basically be leveraging your efforts to stop and start shipping lanes on two seperate sides of the world, discounting that the US already had allies invovled in the war. And that supporting Russia would open up shippung lanes to be targeted by Germany, and vice versa for supporting the ither side.

add in that logistic bases heabily depend on a variety of other aspects. Likely natural resources, time to transit.

The overall time from the supply lines to the fromt would be twn fold across Siberia and the Pacific then acriss the atlantic.

add in we would basically be feeding the nations that will want us dead as soon as they conquer Europe.

It would have been harder for them, but if you look at the actual stats about population, age, war production and resources you will see that they could have stalemated and severely bloodied the Germans.

It would have yeah, but had it ended in a stalemate it woukd have been separate

And then you add to that the fact that the nazi idiots were trying to genocide all slavs and instead of being greeted as liberators they got partizan activity and persistent sabotage wherever they occupied ground.

Well yeah, but the Waffan had its Slavic units so there is that.

Literally anyone could have run that war better than Hitler, perhaps even Biden.

Nah. Hitler did fine at first, it was losing thay drove him off decently well.
And losing trust in good officers

Actually, hold that thought, need to post this in the AH section.
