“The fear of failure
is often worse than failure itself.” -- Shiv
Khera
Historians have copiously documented that the United States
of America went into World War II because the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor.
This is the truth but not the whole truth. The whole truth is that the U.S. had
a rabid fear of the Germans dominating the world and denying them their much
cherished freedom and liberty. Remember that the U.S. was founded, built and
currently thrives on the ideals of freedom and liberty. Adolph Hitler and his
Nazi Germany were a threat to these ideals. Hitler himself did not cease to
tout the superiority of his Aryan race and his ambition to conquer the whole
world. This unbridled ambition would have brought him into inevitable conflict
with the U.S. whether the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor or not. This is the
whole truth. The fear of being conquered and denied their much cherished
freedom and liberty was the foremost motivator for the U.S. to get involved in
World War II.
