Many historians believe the Second World War began on Sept. 1, 1939 when Nazi Germany invaded Poland. Others feel it was Sept. 18,1931 when Imperial Japan invaded Manchuria. And some think it was a continuation of the First World War, with a break in the middle. Myself, I’m going with 1939. I do feel there was some unfinished business from the WWI, and the Japanese committed some serious aggression against the Chinese. But Hitler went past the point of no return by invading Poland. What are your thoughts?

I kind of think it was a combination but I suppose strictly speaking it wasn’t global until countries from every continent were involved and that has got to be after the Japanese attacks in the Far East and Pacific.
