My country has plenty of its own war heros we don't need yours....Last time I checked, Germans never refused to fight american soldiers...
Last time that I checked America never rounded up 11-17 Million Jews and Burned them. You didn't refuse to fight us you chose to fight us. And like the Band of Borther's shows, we scarificed big -blam!- for their freedom.
No america waited until the mid point in the war so their bargaining chips to enter were strongest, hence why the isrealis can do what ever they want in the middle east knowing they have the protection of the yanks to fall back on
America had wanted to join the war since the invasion of China. We had not much eason to becom fully involved untill the attack on Pearl Harbor. This resulted in a no backing down situation. Then Hitler declared war on us knowing we just got bombed and so we know we need to prepare for two wars. And most of the population was against fighting Germany not knowing the situation of war, and so Roosevelt was tying to get USA to help Britain in Germany. This Germany was seen as a European conflict and there was no reason to get involved until we saw Germany taking over Europe, and thus D-Day occured.
No. The American practice at the time was isolationism, essentially meaning America was content letting everyone do whatever they wanted, so long as it didn't affect America itself. You joined the war after Pearl Harbor because all of a sudden you were being affected by WWII, and the general public was screaming for action to be taken.
If the hostile takeovers of numerous countries and extermination of certain races aren't reason to get involved in a war prior to Pearl Harbor, I don't know what are.
tl;dr: America was selfish.
