It was easy to tell the difference between friends and enemies in the 1st half of the 20th century but FDR couldn't seem to figure it out. Hitler came into power roughly the same time FDR was elected for his first term but Germany's increasingly aggressive posture and continued violation of WW1 surrender terms didn't seem to faze the FDR administration. Germany's aggressiveness apparently went unnoticed by the FDR administration until Germany overran the CZ republic. Japan conquered most of Indo-China while the FDR administration dismissed Japan's military as nothing but thugs. The point is that the enemy the U.S. is facing was ignored by the Clintons and appeased by the Obama administration the same way democrats ran their foreign policy for a hundred years. It's up to a republican administration to pick up the pieces.
