Whoah...I'm a little confused here. Aren't you mixing up World Wars? I thought
we dragged our heels (a little) in WW1 but we joined WW2 after a cowardly
attack by the Japanese at Pearl Harbor - and we were already assisting the
Allies in many ways before Pearl Harbor. You'll never make me believe that
this country did not want to enter WW2 after Pearl Harbor!!!
