America’s last legal war ended in 1945 and the entire country—from the time the time the Senate voted unanimously on December 8, 1941 until Japan’s surrender on September 2, 1945—was mobilized for the war effort. The cases belli (’cause for war’ or ‘case for war’,’ depending on who you ask) was unequivocal; Japan attacked the…
