Charles A. Lindbergh speaks against United States participation in European Wars early in World War 2.
Charles A. Lindbergh delivers an anti-war speech early during the outbreak of World War II in Europe. Lindbergh speaks in a studio of the Mutual Broadcasting System. He speaks against American involvement in wars in foreign lands. He states that the Americans should not be asked to fight in foreign countries, but to focus on defense of the United States. Among other things, Lindbergh says: "The doctrine that we must enter the wars of Europe, in order to defend America, will be fatal to our Nation, if we follow it. When men are called upon to fight, and to die, for their country, there must not be even the remotest question of foreign influence involved." He states that Americans have no confidence in decisions of their leaders. He talks about the high number of aircraft and war materiel manufactured to fight in European countries. He talks about the affect on the National debt of the current spending for armaments and war production. He speaks out against the current American leadership (democratic party under Franklin Roosevelt) and how it did not do the right things to see what was coming in Europe and take steps to prevent it. He says that Americans are not confident in their leaders. Lindbergh speaks out against building of untold thousands of military aircraft, but he speaks in favor of a defense-focused American Air Corps.
