IOTL the real isolationist period in US foreign relations was under FDR. Previous Republican administrations had played important parts in the various trade and arms conferences since the war. Historiography, largely written by FDR fans, has tended to ignore this.With the defeat of President Hoover in the 1932 Presidential election the conference had lost one of its most enthusiastic supporters. Although the President-elect, Franklin Roosevelt had made it clear he was sympathetic to the conference’s aims he had stressed that his urgent domestic agenda meant that the United States could not consider joining the League of Nations to be a priority.

Combined industrial potential of USSR and DAR will be more than enough to bash capitalist and imperialist. And 18 million soldiers that died in OTL will show total war to Japanese and Americans. Usa will not like to lose millions and millions of soldiers.Well as far as I go, I'm hoping the Communists get their teeth kicked in eventually.
What? Libya? That was just a tiny bit of ethnic cleansing. It's not like all arabs were killed. Just the ones that were unwilling to italianize properly.I'm pretty worried that this debacle is going to legitimise fascism and far-right governance in general in the eyes of the West. "Reasonable" fascists like Franco and Mussolini getting whitewashed is going to send the Overtone Window spinning off in directions I very much would be disturbed by.
Furthermore, support for white governments-in-exile against Arab or African rebels will naturally appeal to the British and American far rightWhat? Libya? That was just a tiny bit of ethnic cleansing. It's not like all arabs were killed. Just the ones that were unwilling to italianize properly.
This is very much a tongue-in-cheek / in-world statement. Please no ban.

There's a pretty large gap between an alliance of desperation with a tyrannical dictatorship that's nonetheless facing a genocidal onslaught from your mutual enemy and supporting colonial regimes that make up the minority of a country's population. It'd be worse than supporting South Vietnam; it may have been filled with colonial collaborators but they were also members of the native population in question unlike, say, Rhodesia.You make deals with who you need to in order to win. Just ask Roosevelt and Churchill.
He establishes this partly by citing those such as Keitel who publicly claimed the war against the Soviets was defensive but then ignores Keitel's own private material stating the attack against the Soviet Union was planned with conquest in mind and was not pre-emptive.
"And what is Albania?"I'm pretty worried that this debacle is going to legitimise fascism and far-right governance in general in the eyes of the West.

Can you send me a link for this?
I've seen this thread lots of times so can I ask for a bit of a summarized run-down and to see a Europe map?

Some random US politician in the future.
This comment violates the NAP.Gary Johnson is a guy with a name so generic that I could probably say he was the President in the present day ITTL and people would presume I'd just made him up to avoid butterflies.

What policy will the USSR likely take towards the Middle Eastern states that it is invading (to deny their resources to the allies, and of course spread the revolution)? Perhaps Sultan-Galiev Islamo-national-communism will be used as a tool to make them into loyal clients
