I think the comparisons to WWII are inevitable not because of the situation but because it was the easiest war to justify after-the-fact and because the US FELT like an underdog (even after waiting two years before joining...) What I think is scary is that if someone were to try a bit, they could probably make the case that what we're doing is similar to WWII only with us playing Germany.
