Might want to re-read my post, because I said nothing about absolution. i am pointing out using the example of FDR, whom I dislike for a number of reasons, should not be judged in totality by a single event and the over simplistic placing of all the responsibility on someone whose contribution was advice. He could no more order such actions than you or I could.When some of the worst atrocities in recent memory happen on your watch, weird to get defensive like VFH did when anyone points that out if you want to absolve him of all responsibility you’re welcome to

Sounds like you agree with me that he bears some level of responsibility for the many atrocities that happened on his watchMight want to re-read my post, because I said nothing about absolution. i am pointing out using the example of FDR, whom I dislike for a number of reasons, should not be judged in totality by a single event and the over simplistic placing of all the responsibility on someone whose contribution was advice.

“Carpet bombing civilians in Cambodia was actually what’s best; after all, look how long he stayed politically active” is a bad argument
