How would DU react to the 1930s and Hitler?

115. Our involvement in World War I ultimately led to his rise a few years later.

It's pretty much commonly believed that had the U.S. not entered, Hitler would have never come to power since he fed off the nationalism of a defeated, and economically depressed, country.

Churchill once said:

"America should have minded her own business and stayed out of the World War. If you hadn't entered the war the Allies would have made peace with Germany in the Spring of 1917. Had we made peace then there would have been no collapse in Russia followed by Communism, no breakdown in Italy followed by Fascism, and Germany would not have signed the Versailles Treaty, which has enthroned Nazism in Germany. If America had stayed out of the war, all these 'isms' wouldn't today be sweeping the continent of Europe and breaking down parliamentary government — and if England had made peace early in 1917, it would have saved over one million British, French, American, and other lives."

So, dominoes. But regardless, ignoring ISIS isn't the answer. It'll continue to spread, just as al-Qaeda did in the 1990s, and we'll be forced to face 'em sooner or later. Better now when they're still fresh(ish) than when they gain even more influence in an already awful region.
