Well about 80% of americans do not have passports so they like to believe only their side and not others seeing as the majority have not been outside america. This is one of the reasons why americans still have guns, because they do not understand that you can live life without them. So answer to your question, yes. Btw plz don't hate this does not apply to all americans and I'm not trying to be mean.
I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
