When the War was over

After watching the video on what had happened when the war was over, I can better relate to how the generation of the people who were alive during the Spanish Civil War felt. According to one lady, people went to her door and remarked that Franco had won and that they did not know how they were going to react with Fascism. They also talked about how lucky they were if they or anyone they know made it out of Spain alive.

There were also pleads as to why nobody stood up against Hitler, Mussolini, and Franco. People were also wondering why the United States did not intervene more. Also, there was a sense of fear in the people's voices, because they did not know what to expect in the future.

Why did the US not intervene more?
Why did they let Hitler and Mussolini get as much recognition with their iseas as they did?
