Thanks. Yes wilson. You have heard me rant about our "elitist" europhiles and wilson leads the list. I suspect his eagerness to involve us in what was patently european war was to set the table for shoehorning us into his stinking league of nations, i.e., the socialist claptrap our senate was wise enough not to engage us in and those in the new deal era stupid enough to do

Wilson had a heavy hand in redrawing Europe's nations based on ethnic groups which were accepted by the Allies after WWI while the Brits and French used their Sykes/Picot plan to rearrange the Ottoman Empire. Folks should look at the pre/post maps! The Treaty of Versailles awarded Shandong to the Japanese even though it was part of mainland China. As a result, China refused to sign the Treaty of Versailles. This clause was one reason the U.S. Senate opposed and ultimately did not approve the Treaty.
