=== World War II ===

[[Franklin Roosevelt]] used the [[Lend-Lease Act]] to fund the British before using sanctions on [[Japan]] to trigger Pearl Harbor, as Japan had zero chance of defeating the United States, and even [[China]], which was in a warlord period, was too large for the python to swallow, and Japan would have lost either way. There is also speculation that Roosevelt intentionally allowed Pearl Harbor to happen, and that his ultimate goal was to start a conflict with Japan in order to justify intervening in Europe. A counterargument or defense to said speculation is that the Axis could not have been defeated unless the United States got involved. That is certainly a possibility in the case of Germany (but not Japan), but what cannot be ignored is that 85% of [[Nazi]] causalities (including most before [[D-Day]]) occurred in the hands of the Soviet Army, which no doubt was emboldened by the country having suffered approximately 27 million deaths (one-third were soldiers) during the course of the war. And regardless of which side of that argument is correct, at the end of the day the absolute truth is that Roosevelt wanted to get involved in the war from the beginning, perhaps if not likely in the name of interests that had nothing to do with American interests or even basic morality (remember, this is the same man who had previously refused German Jews entry into the United States when it was already clear that Hitler had genocidal intentions towards them, and even based parts of the New Deal on foreign counterparts established by fascist regimes). And of course, the lack of sincere moral outrage towards the genocidal policies of the Axis countries has continued well beyond the war and even to this day, as the CIA has consistently forged covert alliances with neo-Nazi groups and in some cases unrepentant former members of the ''original'' Nazis, while the United States has put little to no pressure on Japan to acknowledge its wartime crimes to the extent that Germany has.

To this day, the United States has put little to no pressure on Japan to acknowledge its wartime crimes to the extent that Germany has, as Germany has released their records on the crimes committed during the Holocaust, and UNESCO was going to release records on Japan's war crimes in 2015 until Tokyo threatened to withhold funding.
