Gareth,

The only reason that America came to help Britian as I said was Japan bombed Peral Harbour, I think that F.D.R. said that the second world war, 1939-1941 was "Europe's war" and that Ameria should stay out of it, I'm not saying that all Americans were had that put of view, it just some, and as for the first world war, that also was "Europe's war and not America's" and the only reason that America came into that war was because a German submarine blew up an American ship.
