During World War II, Germany was largely viewed by the American public as a pariah on the world stage — but that didn’t stop American companies from doing business with the Nazi regime. Perhaps American companies should have known better, but the German economy presented a business opportunity some corporations saw as too good to pass up. As a result, several American companies did business in Germany and some actually assisted the German war effort, at least until America itself was engaged in war with Germany.

ReplyDeleteAnd that's the important part. Until the US entered the war, Germany was not an enemy state and the US was also doing business with its Allies.
The important thing to take away from this is how the US is eagerly doing business with the modern Nazi Germany equivalent, China and how its learned nothing from experience.
Your point is that business dealings are not a problem unless war was declared or that eventually we will be at war with China?
