So on Thursday it was the 100 year anniversary since President Wilson's awful decision to declare war on Germany. There are many facets of that debacle. One that stands out is how soon he reached the decision for war after the overthrow of Czar Nicholas in Russia. He abdicated on March 15, 1917, and by the next week Wilson at a full cabinet meeting made his decision for war. That was not coincidental. As long as the Czar ruled Russia, the power of German Jewish finance in the US was on the side of neutrality. With the Czar overthrown the German Jews in the US now had no special reason to favor Germany.

There were many heroes in the lost cause of American neutrality, such as Lindberg's father who was in congress, Sen Lafollette and Johnson, House Majority leader Kitchen, and apparently Wilson's second wife Edith who all opposed intervention. And in fairness, many honest socialists stood against our entry as well.
Most poignant and tragic was William Jennings Bryan who resigned as Wilson's secretary of state in 1915 to protest Wilson's lack of true neutrality. I've always felt that Bryan should have stayed on as sec of state as long as possible and use his office to undermine Wilson's pro-interventionists moves. At some point Wilson might have had to fire him, but Bryan's stature was such that he would have had to think long and hard about that.

In a war without US intervention the case could be made that a compromise peace without victory would have had a better chance of success, with Germany and Austria retaining their strength and integrity. Wilson even made some half hearted gestures in this direction in late 1916, but with the US staying neutral we really could have brokered an honest peace, with Wilson going down in history as a great president instead of a devious fool. With such a peace happening before Oct 1917 we would not have seen a Bolshevik takeover in Russia.

WWI was a disaster for Europe and America. If the USA had not entered the war, the war would probably have ended much sooner, saving many lives.

It's worth studying how America got involved in WWI. The tactics the warmongers used to get America into a senseless war are still being used today.

Wilson ran for re-election in 1916 under the slogan "He Kept Us Out of War." His swift turn was two-faced even for a politician. After the war, he attempted to sell out American sovereignty to the internationalist League of Nations (luckily, the Senate, which still had patriotism and testicles back then, stopped America from joining).

Ironically, Wilson has recently become hated by the cultural Marxists, SJWs, and the other usual cuckspects because he was "rayciss" (i.e., supported segregation, like most normal White people of the time).

...and was a big fan of the cinematic masterpiece "The Birth of a Nation". ;-)

A few years ago, "Haaretz," the Daily Jewspaper in Israel, named Woodrow Wilson as the most "pro-Jewish" president in American history...

And he did. Wilson supported the Balfour Declaration – 'the establishment in Palestine of a national home for the Jewish people.' He did so despite the advice of his most trusted confidante, Col. Edward House, who acted as America's first national security adviser. You must remember that, at the time, the U.S. was an extremely anti-Semitic country, so expressing support for the Balfour Declaration was a very courageous act. Wilson was the most Christian president the U.S. has ever had. He was the son and grandson of Presbyterian ministers; he prayed on his knees twice a day and read the Bible every night. But he was also the most pro-Jewish president the U.S. has ever had. He appointed the first Jew to the Supreme Court, Louis Brandeis, a fervent Zionist, who counseled Wilson about the Balfour Declaration, and who would go on to champion an individual's right to privacy and free speech. He brought the financier Bernard Baruch into government, and he appointed Henry Morgenthau as the ambassador to the Ottoman Empire during the First World War. Earlier, as president of Princeton University, Wilson appointed the first Jew to the faculty, and as governor of New Jersey, prior to becoming president, he appointed the first Jew to the state's Supreme Court.

In my opinion, no U.S. president of the past or present could possibly compare to FDR in terms of their rabid, frothing-at-the-mouth commitment to Global Zionism.

Woodrow Wilson had his own Jared Kushner, Rothschild Jewish handlers, Colonel Edward Mandel House, and also Bernard Baruch.

America had no interest whatsoever in being in WWI. It's participation was a disaster for America.

Over 100,ooo Americans died in WWI. The large majority of these were white men. These men could have had families, had jobs building up the country. Who knows what scientific discoveries and inventions were lost and works of art were never created.

And of course ww1 in addition to being a complete slaughter of young men in Europe let to the even bigger tragedy - ww2.

the flower of an entire generation was lost in these two avoidable conflicts.

keep that in mind the next time you’re watching a sporting event and see a vibrant and diverse army ad
