Well technically my Grandfather insulted him I just passed it along - also the UK was not invaded during WWII so again there was no actual 'freeing' from the Nazi's involved (Channel Islands excepted)

...and boy you lot sure are sensitive - 'raw nerve' and 'hitting' spring to mind. Although we tend to have a different outlook as we tend to celebrate epic failures or flukey victories as opposed to stunning successes. Charge of the Light Brigade, Dunkirk etc.

America has such a poor military record, yet it's still the most powerful nation on earth? Hmm...

Sure does have a poor military record for the amount spent by the Pentagon. So... it must be powerful in.... currency? international cred? the hub of the world's industry?

Nevermind... I'm going for a drink. Want one? :winkwink: :thumbsup

Thread after thread after thread started by some non US idiot explaining how bad the US is. watching someone piss up at their betters is fucking funny to watch.

Russia had defeated the Wehrmacht and was rapidly closing in on Berlin, so the Americans decided to join the fight. Their presence was mostly a nuisance to Hitler, who sent all of his best troops to the Eastern Front. The Americans spent a year fighting German boys and old men and finally met the Russian Army in August 1945, who had been sitting in Berlin enjoying their victory and awaiting the American arrival.

A little revisionist history on your part.

First, the British were broke and got $50b from the US in supplies to fight the war. Without the US, they would have been overrun. Second, the US was in the war before 1944. They were responsible for the daylight air raids in Berlin in 1942 and getting the Germans out of North Africa.

Seriously, read a book on WW2 one of these days.

Recruited a group of foreign scientists to develop the A-bomb, and dropped it on Japan, forcing a surrender.

Not exactly sure how this is a military failure. Basically the US kicked the shit out of the Japanese.

What are some of your opinions on what would have happened in WW2 had the US not gotten involved in Europe?

In the US stories to come out of WW2 are sacred, and WW2 Hollywood movies portray US soldiers as the biggest studs of all time without mentioning what the Russians did.

Some believe that had the US military not gotten involved that Hitler would have crossed the Atlantic and invaded the US. Realistically, was that possible? Could Russia have put the nails in the Nazi coffin on their own without US involvement?

The UK would have been overrun if the US had not given them supplies. They were flat broke and simply couldn't afford the war.

I have read that Hitler wanted to take England first, but believed he needed air superiority. So instead he invaded Russia.

Lent not gave. UK finished paying back the loan earlier this year. Also seem to recall it was US$5 billion but am open to correction on that

And again way too sensitive!

Take any one of the three main components out of the equation USA,UK, USSR and the result would have been very different as any two together would have been unlikely to defeat the Germans. The thread is just a 'my dick is bigger than your dick' argument

Prob correct Tom - also remember this was a world war on several fronts.

Agree.. it's the usual old GFY crap syndrome about dick size - easy when they never played a roll, but just talk :pimp

It might have been. The US passed a bill that authorized up to $50b I believe.
