Abstract

This paper is discussing the problem of United States politics and its political leadership before their entering in the Second World War apropos German to sign the Atlantic Charter. Procedures of F. Delano Roosevelt against Germany on the Atlantic ocean, wanting to provoke Germany to declare war to US, or at the same time, ultimatums and provocations against Japan, were obvious provocations to those countries to provoke their attack on USA. That time use FDR to create justification, in front of public, for direct confrontation with “Axis powers”. In many ways is questionable US policy before and during the Second World War, therefore in later history main discourse became that they were in isolationism when they were “suddenly” attacked by the Japanese Empire. In addition, the paper describes an “informal marriage” between US and United Kingdom through special deputies.
