I agree with Senator McConnell wholeheartedly. "Outgoing Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., warned of the parallels between current global tensions and those of the 1930s in an essay on the 80th anniversary of D-Day. " "American soldiers, sailors, airmen and Marines joined allies and took the fight to the Axis powers not as a first instinct, but as a last resort," wrote the Kentucky Republican in an op-ed for the New York Times on Thursday. "They ended a war that the free world’s inaction had left them no choice but to fight." "According to him, when D-Day is reflected on, people are quick to forget that the significant toll was incurred "because European powers and the United States met the rise of a militant authoritarian with appeasement or naive neglect in the first place."
"McConnell continued, claiming little is remembered about "influential isolationists" who he said convinced Americans "the fate of allies and partners mattered little to our own security and prosperity."
"He added that "powerful political forces" minimized the danger growing across the globe, refused to help allies, and sought to stop the country from defending what he characterized as "national interests."
"Similarly, "some of the same forces that hampered our response in the 1930s have re-emerged," he claimed. "
"He took aim at a faction of his own party, writing, "Some vocal corners of the American right are trying to resurrect the discredited brand of prewar isolationism and deny the basic value of the alliance system that has kept the postwar peace."
"It should not take another catastrophic attack like Pearl Harbor to wake today’s isolationists from the delusion that regional conflicts have no consequences for the world’s most powerful and prosperous nation," he warned. "
"With global power comes global interests and global responsibilities," McConnell stated. " "Today, America and our allies face some of the gravest threats to our security since Axis forces marched across Europe and the Pacific," explained McConnell.

the world was very different then compared to today, to try to compare the proxy war in ukraine to D-DAY in anyway shape or form is a total bullshit political grift and disrespectful to those killed.

Nothing can compare to D-day.
But Hillary says; On the 80th anniversary of D-Day, former Secretary of State Hillary Clinton sparked controversy with a post on X. She equated the sacrifices made by thousands of brave Americans who fought to protect democracy on the shores of Normandy during World War II to the simple act of voting in the upcoming November election. Her tweet read: “Eighty years ago today, thousands of brave Americans fought to protect democracy on the shores of Normandy. This November, all we have to do is vote.”

True... During WW2, Ukraine collaborated with the Nazis and Russia was our ally. "Hitler, the liberator of Ukraine" |
