Actually I'm sure we were defending ourselves from the attack by Japan. As you might recall we never did declare war on Germany as they declared war on us because we declared war on Japan.
Tom K, Why were we in WW1? Do you think there might have been a direct correlation between our involvement in WW1 and the root causes of WW11? Saddam would be dead 16-18 years by now if the US government had stayed out of the Iran-Iraq war. Brainlessone disagrees with me at every turn but when one takes an action consequences follow. For far too many times these have been much more odious than the original problem. I'm betting that we will greatly regret the militaristic path upon which we have embarked. Since all of you who wish that course to be the one taken we shall find out what lies ahead because the current administration cares about nothing else.
