Pros And Cons Of Joining The Alliance Against Germany

269 Words2 Pages

I strongly believe our armistice is just a mirage. It will be impossible for our country to remain neutral. The United States needs to join the alliance against Germany because of uncontrollable submarine warfare, the Zimmerman Telegram, and to stop the imperialism of communistic countries. The nationalism and propaganda circulating the country will not allow the United States to stay away from the war. The German u-boats have shown that the German government has neglected the consequences of attacking countries not involved in the war. The United States militarism is currently to weak to defeat Germany, but on your command we could easily encourage citizens to enlist. The media has released an extremely large amount of propaganda

    The United States was not neutral in World war one. Although the US did not join the war until 1917; when the war started in 1914, and they labelled themselves as neutral they subconsciously did things and made request that ultimately helped the Allied powers which were Great Britain, France, Russia, and Italy. A few examples of the actions that they took were the censoring of wireless news which only affected Germany because England still used cables, the searching for and arrest of Germans or austrians on American ships due to them being “neutral”. Another thing the United States did was the allowing of countraband on their ships as long as it was not signed to the government, which helped England but gave little t no help to Austria and

    This becomes evident in September, 1940, when President Franklin Roosevelt decided to enter into an agreement with the British ambassador (Doc. F). The agreement provided Britain with critical destroyer ships from the United States for eight valuable defense base stations. When President Roosevelt decided to provide Britain with the destroyer ships it indicated a siding with the allies, and will change the mindset of most Americans to ‘all aid short of war” as neutrality was breached. Also, this change of stance came with Britain being the last one standing against Hitler within Europe since people feared the war reaching the Western Hemisphere, if not kept within Europe. In consideration to keeping the war out of America, President Franklin Roosevelt will highlight how ‘we’ must do everything to help the British Empire defend itself (Doc. H).

    Americans were already skeptical of Germany due to the previous relationships, and the Germans re-sparked the sensitive areas when they did not go to the meeting. Germany signed the Tripartite Pact, and the fascist powers Germany, Japan, and Italy joined together opposing European order, and Russian communism. The war was so far away, and did not involve United States soil. Consequently, we just stayed out of it and made money from trading goods. The only way to get the United States into the war, and out of their isolationist ways was a dramatic attack.

    WWI Neutrality DBQ When WWI began in 1914, the President Woodrow Wilson declared a neutrality policy which most Americans favored, seeing the war as a problem among European nations. In a message to Congress, Wilson asked Americans to “act and speak in the true spirit of neutrality” (A). Wilson’s purpose was not only to prevent conflicts among diverse ethnic groups who supported opposing side, but also to avoid an inherently exhausting war. Despite the US’s non-interventionist stance, the US was never truly neutral—especially when submarine warfare, economic interests, Zimmermann Telegram, and patriotism pushed US foreign policy to largely favor the Allies.

  • Woodrow Wilson Declaration Of War Speech Analysis

    With President Wilson as the leader of America, he would have to make sure it was for the good of all mankind and not just America itself. Throughout his address to congress, Wilson appeals at different points to being human, mankind, and the freedom of people. This is also where the idea of the United Nations comes to light, at the time called League of Nations. The idea was that America would pursue the highest wishes of mankind for the best interest of the world. Even though the speech itself gives off the message that Americans should remain neutral in the war, Woodrow’s speech also gives the idea that this means the United States has to guide other nations in restoring justice and peace to the world against Germany’s selfish interest and power hungry war acts.

    Nearly five years since the war in Syria started, is now really the time for the UK to step in and try and resolve the conflict? Personally I don’t believe it is. I think that if we were going to help the Syrian forces we should have done it at the beginning of this conflict. Now after the Paris attacks the UK government believe that bombing the extremists will somehow stop what is happening, but will it not instead just put a bigger target on the UK? Yes, there is always going to be positives and negatives to every decision but can we really live with what the possible negatives of the UK joining this conflict could do to our country.
