The United States had suffered a large number of casualties although the European countries had suffered a greater number. Their casualties were around 50 to 80 million in total. Thus their suffering could have ended if we had entered sooner. Although many of the deaths were of Jewish origin. There were also polish people persecuted and the battle deaths that added to the toll. Should the United States have entered the war in around, let's say 1939, then the persecution of the Jews would have been a lot shorter and potentially millions of the Jewish population would likely have survived this genocide. Hitler's reign over a large mass of Europe would have been cut short, and the Nazi party rapidly eliminated.

Total World DeathsAccording to the national world war two museum, the total deaths in the second world war was about 60 million. And after that, there were about twenty-five million injured. The United States should have entered the war to prevent such a massacre. Every country lost the war. We may have won the day, but with the amount of soldiers we had to bury, we had truly lost. Partly due to our poor judgment and our lack of action taken in the war. We should have acted a lot faster and smarter then the way of neutrality.

Civilian CasualitiesCivilians that were innocently killed were likely Jewish, as they were the group of people that Herr Hitler was against. Roughly forty-five million innocent people were massacred by this tyranny, and we didn't step in to do anything about it. Wouldn't you think we should have stepped in to save lives? Are we not the good country you are always told that we are? Ask yourself this, and think of what we should have done. Ask yourself why was 1941 a good time to enter the war. Ask yourself why we let so many innocents die.

Battle DeathsWe enlisted our troops in 1941 to fight against both the German army, and the Japanese in order to protect ourselves. Was this what actually happened? We sent millions of soldiers over seas to fight this vast enemy with our allies. We sent so many soldiers and 15 million of them did not return. Worse still 25 million came back with and injury of some sort, some with life lasting injuries. Yet we "protected" our people. We waited until Japan and Germany were ready to fight the war, not when we were likely to have won.
