They fought to defend their country. They did not fight for a moral cause:
Liberal scum assigning a moral cause to the Greatest Generation is sickening. This year’s philosophical interpretation of D-Day was more perverse than ever before.
The Greatest Generation did not fight and die to save democracy, or to save civilization, or to save foreign peoples. They fought to destroy Japan after Pearl Harbor. They only fought in Europe because Germany declared war on the U.S. a week or so after Pearl Harbor.
Socialists/Communists would not have fought for this country in WWII had Hitler not invaded the Soviet Union. That does not prevent today’s liberals from taking credit for winning WWII because it saved Communism in the Soviet Union. Prior to Hitler invading the Soviet Union the American Left was quite content with Stalin and Hitler dividing Europe between them.
In fact, American Communists went berserk demanding a second front after Hitler tore up the non-aggression pact.
After Hitler made the mistake of declaring war on the U.S. after Pearl Harbor every Communist effort in this country focused on bullying FDR into establishing a second front.

Had Hitler never double-crossed Stalin the Soviet Union would have remained neutral for the duration. As far as Stalin was concerned in 1939 Hitler could have the rest of Europe so long as he stayed out of those countries the Soviets coveted. Stalin knew he could not defeat Germany anyway; so he thought he got a good deal in the Soviet-Nazi Non-Aggression Pact. Stalin was correct in 1939. Had the war been fought between Germany and the Soviet Union alone Germany would have won hands down.
American Communists/Socialists began screaming for a second front after“Operation Barbarossa.” Prior to Hitler’s double-cross American Communists switched loyalties fasted than greased lightning.
Had Hitler not stuck it to Old Joe every American Socialist/Communist would have been conscientious objectors throughout WWII.
NOTE: Communist supporters came out of the woodwork to demonstrate for Communism during the Vietnam War.
Many WWII buffs believe that Hitler’s biggest mistake was invading the Soviet Union. The fact is that declaring war on the U.S. after Pearl Harbor was Hitler’s biggest mistake. Japan was Germany’s ally so declaring war on the U.S. —— AFTER THE U.S. DECLARED WAR ON JAPAN —— was based on Germany’s High Command decision that the U.S. could not wage and win a war fought on two oceans.
Had Germany not declared war, FDR would have been forced to concentrate the war effort on Japan. Hitler’s miscalculation was short-sighted. After Japan had been beaten, the American public would still have been against helping Communism survive in the Soviet Union.
Indeed, Americans could see no good reason for entering the war in Europe. Polls taken in the pre-WWII era showed that 80 percent of the American people wanted no part of a European war. As late as June 23, 1941, then-Senator Truman remarked:
Senator Harry S. Truman was a vehement opponent of America getting involved in another European War. The man who would later become president understood the American people because he was one of them. To hear today’s liberals talk about WWII, young Americans have been conned into believing that the Greatest Generation could not wait to die for strangers in foreign lands.
Finally, let me go astray with a caution for Democrats.
Japan’s Admiral Yamamoto is credited with saying:
Yamamoto never said it; nevertheless, Democrat gun-grabbers are wishing for an invading enemy.
There is no doubt that Democrats would welcome a foreign military à la Vidkun Quisling the same way they welcome illegal alien invaders.

In November, 1943, Joseph Stalin, Winston Churchill and Franklin D. Roosevelt met together in Teheran, Iran, to discuss military strategy and post-war Europe. Ever since the Soviet Union had entered the war, Stalin had been demanding that the Allies open-up a second front in Europe. Churchill and Roosevelt argued that any attempt to land troops in Western Europe would result in heavy casualties. Until the Soviet's victory at Stalingrad in January, 1943, Stalin had feared that without a second front, Germany would defeat them.
