of course not, because there was no such thing as a "Rooseveltian ideology". Nor did the "democrat regime" (again a complete non sequitur in English) launch a war of aggrandisement on the back of the militarisation of an entire society, that led to the violent deaths of millions. The Nazis did and German industry developed the Ju 88 family (along with much else) to help them do it... I don't think Medcalf is writing sloppy journalese there, but he is stating the obvious! Looks like it needs re-stating too (Hitler as "wild spokesman" ? a mere 'tool' of Germany's big industrial concerns? C'mon Ed! )
