    On Dec. 3 1941, the US as a whole was quite content supplying the allies with everything they needed materially. We had told the USSR to just make tanks, we would give them everything else, including the ammunition for said tanks. Letting the USSR take a win was certainly preferable to what happened after they took a loss at the end of WWI.

    I wonder what could have possibly happened on Dec. 4, 1941, that got the country to collectively say, “Fuck that. We aren’t sitting by anymore.”
