The Japs were manipulated into attacking us,by commies in FDR'S state dept. They all of a sudden " cared" about the war in China,and put a steel and oil embargo on the japs. During the war these same commies sent most of the aid to China,to the communists so they could take over after the war. The commies saved their strength and didn't even fight the japs during ww2....
That's right, PB. The general consensus in the United States was to not be involved in another European war. Americans still had a lot of resentment and sorrow left over from the first European war. Over night the "surprise attack" changed most people's minds.
Pretty sure Casablanca was set in the early part of WW1. You may recall towards the end of this great movie, the German soldiers were not in Nazi uniforms. It was released in 1942. So by the time it was released, USA was already in.
Casablanca was written deliberately responsive to 1941-12-07, as the script shows. Everybody Comes to Rick's was bought for a record amount by Hal Wallis (Aaron Blum Wolowicz) in 1942-01-12 and then totally rewritten by Julius and Philip Epstein.
La Belle Aurore is a real cafe in Cap Ferrat, France.
For althist fans, if Japan hadn't been tricked then another entry into the same war would've been supported by an entirely different rave film, maybe starring Ronald Reagan, or Donald Duck.

So, they could have waited to release Casablanca for a different war?
