Japan was a small nation lacking in "elbow space", so they seeked more land and invaded china. Since the Germans were more friendly, they joined the axis. They joined the allies in ww1 because they wanted to be acknowledged as a world power. Their invasion of Germans in africa proved military might. (22 votes) amuschel a year agoPosted a year ago.

In sooth, he did not pay lip service, taking action here and there to help the American nation. Simply put, he was a great president in terms of his presidency. When The Japanese launched a surprise attack on the US navy base, he spontaneously responded to the attack by proposing his idea to the constitution to grant the right to encounter the ferocious attack. • (4 votes) L.

FDR was certainly a strong president who represented America well during the war. However, I believe many of the socialist-leaning welfare policies he implemented in the '30s have helped form our economic problems today. (1 vote) NayeliH 5 months agoPosted 5 months ago.

However, at the time there was also the popular ideology of Isolationism in which people wanted to avoid interfering with foreign nations' conflicts.

Guns enable fighting and killing without having to look ones victim in the eye and kill another human being. With a gun, one is only killing a target. (5 votes) Zev Oster a year agoPosted a year ago.

Discrimination of Jews as a political maneuver has been common for almost as long as Judaism has existed, and almost all of the old world has harbored such a nation at one point or another, including in Palestine itself. • (3 votes) Ethan M a year agoPosted a year ago.

However it is definitely possible part of the fuel was his thirst for power, and his thirst to destroy all who weren't a part of his "Aryan" race. (3 votes) Ashley a year agoPosted a year ago.

2) Hitler was also a man with a tremendous ambition to be in power.
3) When he looked at the political possibilities to attain that power, he concluded that rising by hatred was a pretty safe bet.
4) In Middle Europe, there was already a strong anti-jewish sentiment among some sectors of gthe society. This sentiment went back centuries. It was wrong, it was terrible, but it was there. Hitler made use of that anti-jewish sentiment on his way up the political ladder.
5) Jewish people, as individuals, as a distinct ethinic group, and as a religious group, had done nothing at all to "earn" the hatred of others.
6) My own conclusion is that Hitler was a very bad man who rose to power by exploiting class and race hatred in a people (the ethnic Germans) at a time when they were feeling down and oppressed. I emphasize that Hitler was a very bad man. Those who blindly followed him shared in his badness.
One of the most important reasons for Hitler’s deep seated aversion for the Jews was that he thought of them as an inferior race. In his speeches and conversations, Hitler passionately stated his belief that the Germans were the descendants of the mighty Aryan race.
