We caused world war 2. Even the most novice historian knows as much. We casued the holocasut, too.
Just because you ignorant morons here never knew these facts, don't kill the messenger. You ever heard of the madagascar plan? It would have went through had we not been bankrolling, as well as using other means of supporting, all of Germany's enemies by guess who? The USA.
I have yet to read Buchannan's books on the Second World War, but I look forward to doing so.
Pat comes at these issues with a novel approach, and unlike you nondeplume, he doesn't appear to me to be motivated to look a history from the stance of an jew-hater.
HOWEVER...I agree with you that WWII could have been prevented
I think it not completely unreasonable to suggest that we (meaning the Western Powers) DID CAUSE WORLD WAR II, as well, but likely not for the same reasons you might.
First of all the Treaty of Versailles was a cruel joke played not only on the German people, but on many people throughout the world, including, for example, the Arabs who were our ALLIES in that conflict.
Secondly, the reparations demanded of the German people were absurd and guaranteed to destroy that people's ability to recover from the war.
We can mostly blame the FRENCH for this, but ENGLAND deserves it's share of the blame, too.
No, I do not blame the USA for that mess since they'd pretty much given up in disgust of their former allies for being such dickheads as to destroy Europe's best hope for peace. (which would have been a viable democractic Germany)
Finally, we can blame both England AND France for pussying out when Hitler began rearming, taking back the disputed territories, and for the destruction of Czechoslokia, too.
Had France stood up to Hitler when he rolled into Alsace-Lorraine (the French outnumbered the Germans troops considerably and could have crushed that move easily) Hitler would likely have been removed from office by the German military establishment by a coupe d' etat and there would NOT have been second world war.
