Description: Following the invasion of Poland, Lindbergh uses his celebrity status to broadcast radio speeches advocating for strict neutrality. Influenced by his father's persecution during World War I, he views politics as a deceptive business and fears permanent American involvement in Europe. Lindbergh argues that Britain and France have started a war they cannot win without U.S. intervention. He prioritizes American interests over the survival of the British Empire, which he believes is in decline. Meanwhile, British critics dismiss him as a "schoolboy" who lacks the maturity to understand complex global diplomacy. (2/8)1936
