    The one time the US waged war against a fascist state that the US didn’t help into power in the first place - so of course critters like Graham would consider this an “unnecessary war.”

      Well… A lot of US corporations and businessmen DID help Hitler and the Nazis. It’s just that now-a-days those corporations control the government too… So supporting fascists is official gov policy

        Sure. For the most part, the US gov didn’t sign onto that… except for that time the US and the UK decided to pressure France and Mexico into stopping all logistical aid to the Spanish anarchists - making a fascist victory in Spain essentially a foregone conclusion.
