  2. USA had initially no valid, fair, legal reason to enter in war with Germany, however, what was called 'Drole de guerre', 'krazee war', was probably a waiting time, preparing industry to enter war, what actually happened when Germany, because of their agreements with Japan, declared war to USA after Pearl Harbor attack, started against Hiro-Hito warnings, when US, who had been harassing Japanese all through Pacific, cut the Coal and Iron supplies to Japan. After Hitler declared war to USA, all Germans knew war was lost.
