League of Nations

America’s rejection of the League of Nations was a diplomatic blunder. The selfish decision was made primarily because of political jealousy and future party interests/ambitions, rather than in the best interests of the country and the world.

…America had joined the League of Nations, the world may never have seen the rise of Hitler and the Nazis. If the world never experienced WW2, America, England, Russia, and many other nations may never have faced the cold war, and JFK may never have been assassinated.
