Let's compare and contrast here, shall we?


FDR allowed the Germans and Japanese to murder and torture American
POWs at
will from 1941 to 1945 and the American Press never called him on
it.

No proof of that for the Germans at all: they complied strictly with
the Geneva Convention. Over 95% of American POWs of the Germans
survived the war.

They did? Not towards the Soviets or occupied territories nor towards the 12
million murdered in the camps.

Want to keep it just to POWS? Ever heard of The Great Escape? 50 escapees were
murdered in groups of 2 or 3 AFTER being captured. Ok, let's keep discussing
POWS. Ever heard of the "Commando Order" issued by Hitler? How many allied air
crews were murdered before becoming POWs? I'm talking here about murders by
military people not civilians as in Hamburg where British aircrewen who
parachuted into the city were bound and thrown alive into the burning
buildings.

On the other hand FDR didn't "allow" Axis atrocities. He just couldn't stop
them.
