It has been greatly debated whether or not America should be a neutral country in what’s going on in Europe, and whether or not we should side with Great Britain, and aid them. We, America, need to side with Great Britain, and be prepared to give them the help they need in a war situation. There isn’t really a choice for us. We need to have everything ready to go for combat, right now. If we continue to waste time, many more innocent lives will be taken. We must step in and take care of things.

All of this conflict was started when Franz Ferdinand, the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, was assassinated by Gavrilo Princep, a Serbian man. If those people are willing and able to take down the Archduke of Austria-Hungary, what will stop them from taking the lives of innocent civilians? Without our help, they could continue to kill; they could end many of the innocent lives of our allies. We must show our nationalism, and show some pride in our country. Help them win this war, and represent our country well while doing it.

Another reason that we must intervene, is that we have many ancestral ties to Britain. Many current Americans either are from Britain, or have family members that still live there. Going and fighting for the lives of our families and ancestors is the right thing to do. Also, if we were in Great Britain’s situation, and we were threatened to lose many innocent lives, wouldn’t you like the help of another country on your side? You bet you would.

Helping to solve this will be the best decision we can make. It will only strengthen our friendship with Great Britain, and it will take care of things much faster, while losing many less lives. We can’t afford to sit here and let this go on over there. We must come together with Britain, and resolve these conflicts.
