Remember how the world jumped to save insert long list of European countries during WW2 or the siege of Sarajevo?

The fact that both sides are the same race in this just makes it funnier

You mean when America dragged its feet entering WW2? I suppose Canada jumped in to help but we're a commonwealth country.

Well we were trying appeasement before the war started so saying anyone jumped in to help is misleading
