The quote below was written in 1941: "Instead of agitating for war, the Jewish groups in this country should be opposing it in every possible way for they will be among the first to feel its consequences . . . Their greatest danger to this country lies in their large ownership and influence in our motion pictures, our press, our radio and our government." —Speech by Charles Lindbergh, September 11, 1941 The outrage against Lindbergh's speech led to a steep decline in the membership of what group? America First the Republican Party the Democratic Party Ku Klux Klan
The quote below was written in the 1940s: "Why die for democracy for some foreign country when we don't even have it here?" What was a long-term consequence of the sentiment expressed in the quote above? The American public began to protest draft requirements in future wars. African Americans increased their push for civil rights on the home front. The American public let isolationist and nativist beliefs guide their actions. Minority groups in the United States defected and began to support Europe.
The quote below was written by Paul Tibbets, the pilot of the B-29 that dropped the atomic bomb on Hiroshima: "On August 6, 1945 as the Enola Gay approached the Japanese city of Hiroshima, I fervently hoped for success in the first use of a nuclear weapon. To me it meant putting an end to World War II. I viewed my mission as one to save lives." With which principle associated with the Nuremberg Trials would Tibbets agree? A soldier must always follow orders. War criminals must be put on trial for their misdeeds. The destruction of towns and cities constitutes a war crime. Individuals are accountable for their actions even during war.
