124. Care to try logic rather than insults?
Apart from the fact that yr either incapable or unwilling to answer any questions put to you or to make any attempt to clarify some of the disgusting comments you've made in this thread, it is a well known fact that the US was never in danger of being invaded during WWII and that actions taken by the US military were for the most part not done because there was a need felt to protect the US (after all, the US was the sleeping giant who had the added advantage of not having its enemies sitting on its doorstep), but because there was a knowledge that without the US involving itself in the war Britain (which was in grave danger of being invaded) would have fallen to the Nazis and there would have been no opposition to the Nazis left at all in Europe. While the US certainly had every right to enter the war to defend itself after Pearl Harbour, there was never any real fear that the US itself would come under attack, and Pearl Harbour was what was needed to persuade Congress that the US should enter the war. So, what in that are you finding deluded and absurd? Feel free to point it out if you can do so in a coherent manner...

Also, what was absurd and deluded about pointing out that unlike Israel currently, the US were not fighting in WWII due to their occupation of territory that didn't belong to them?
