What has the US isolation got to do with World war II?

The US was in the warWhat has the US isolation got to do with World war II?
Before advent of the industrial revolution and advances in transportation the United States could exist as an isolated country. But with advances in transportation and industry, the United States shifted from an agricultural based economy to an industrial economy and thus become more involved with the rest of the world for economic reasons (customers, resources, etc...).





Today鈥檚 argument that WWII could have been prevented by the United States in 1939 is false. In 1939 Hitler already had his greatest military in the world and had not yet attacked the USSR. Thus the United States with France and Britain would have faced the full brunt of the Nazi War Machine...leaving Stalin and the USSR free to march into Western Europe after the Western forces destroyed one another. Thus the early attack theory when truly analyzed could have been disastrous for the Untied States and left Western Europe dominated by the USSR and Communism. The conditions in Germany that aided Hitler in his rise to power go far back into Europe...Franco-prussian War and beyond.





Iraq absolutely does not compare to the Pre-WWII Germany model鈥t compares to Yugoslavia under Tito. Yugoslavia was a sectarian country held together by a brutal dictator鈥hen the dictator was removed the country fell into civil war resulting in far more deaths and destruction than under the dictator.





The Saudi Arabians were always threatened by Sadam and his Iraq and needed the protection of the United States鈥or such protection the Saudis supplied the United States with reliable low cost petroleum. With the fear of Sadam removed the price of Oil has sky rocketed.





Very little study goes into how Hitler took total control over a conservative Christian country and turned it into the Nazi Nation. The use of propaganda, blaming another religion for Germany's economic woes, extreme patriotism, etc... As President Eisenhower stated: ';If Nazism come to America, it will come wrapped in an American flag';.What has the US isolation got to do with World war II?
O.K. so isolationism means we didn't care about other countries, only ourselfs. so what happened was that no one cared about germany(the loser of WWI) who owed England and france lots of money, and conditions got worse there, the germans were pissed of so they elected hitler, who started attacking countries and no one cared, so he kept going.





so because no country was a world leader hitler was put in power and started WWII
Somewhat like now, the general mood of the country in the 1930's was somewhat isolationist. US business, of course, has never been isolationist, and the ties between the Navy Department and Big Business have often been problematic. But the general mood of a country still feeling the effects of the previous war as regards military matters overseas tended to be ';a pox on all their houses.';


That did not extend to ignoring Japanese excesses in China, where Chiang Kai-Shek and especially Mrs. Chiang were successful in lobbying for the economic sanctions which eventually forced the attack on Pearl Harbor. The mood was still strong enough in the spring and summer of 1941 that when the US Navy and Germany's Kriegsmarine began shooting at each other, it was kept secret from the public. The American public of course thought they were more isolationist, and isolated, than was the case with government activity, but one could get away with that sort of thing in those days.
we didn't want to get invloved with foreign affairs, so we stayed out of it until we got attacked at Pearl Harbor.
