...We bailed their sorry asses out twice from German domination...

Please xplain how this is factual, and what planet you live on. Or are you just in an LEO?

Do your history books really say that you won WW1? How, totally wrong. Please prove to me now that the US won WW1.

I’m not an ungrateful a**hole (didn’t think you could swear on FR), nor am I a ‘jerk’, nor am I a Communist.

FR wouldn’t be FR without some rampant attack on Europe. You guys get more predictable with each passing day.

Lol!

Brits ain’t “Europeans.” The Channel and all that. Wogs begin at Calais, etc.
You’re our beloved cousins from whom we are divided by a common langauge.

LOL yourself idiot. TWICE the United States Military went to Europe and kicked the damned Germans back to Germany. The GERMANS held most of France in WWII and a good section in WWI. IF the USA had not gone there in WWI the Brits and French could not have held it. Go back to Moscow comrade.

No, I insist. Lol!

You didn’t win WWI for us, we did it ourselves. That is, the Brits, the Empire/Commonwealth, and the French Empire.

All you would have to do to see the facts is read any decent history book about WWI. US played a very small part in the war, which was won (if there was such a thing from the terrible 4 years that we endured, losing an entire generation of men to the Somme, Verdun, Paschendale, Ypres etc).

Wasn’t really arguing about WW2, we didn’t lose it, but we were never in a position to win it. Thankfully the US was persuaded by Churchill that this was a fight they had to get involved in, or else risk losing democracy and Western Ideology in Europe. Compared to we Brits, the US armies were inexperienced, but spirited. You have no real right to try and take the glory for yourself, you didn’t earn it. Just as the US won the Battle of Britain and captured the Enigma machine...

Why the name calling? I just rightfully objected to your lies about WWI is all. And I do so again. How can you believe that the US won it? Can you point me in the direction of the literature that proves this, and perhaps I would redress my argument?

So I disagree with you and you call me an idiot communist?!!

ROFLMAO!!!!!

Sorry pal. The United States got there in the nick of time. France and the UK were WORN out. The french almost had a riot and all their troops go AWOL to get out of the lines. Don't hand me that crap that the English and French could have won that war without the US intervention. That is pure BS. The US threw thousands of fresh troops into the war. They gave the big push. OUR general, Black Jack, would not play the trench warfare game. He push over land. Bull S*** if you think the UK and French would have won WWI without the USA’s intervention. Your an idiot.

LOL. Well, I’m not so sure the lowest parts are going to be built up to the degree they once were. I could be wrong. A lot of people seem to be upset about the lack of restoration in those areas.

Never thought my early posts re Russians seeing US as their only enemy and doing everything to undermine its statehood would turn up real SO FAST! Russian indeed portray the US as worth of evil and obviously are trying to do everything to did bad onto it... forget about their cooperation with Iran, N Korea or anything... they will continue doing exactly what they are doing now... pretending to be helping US while doing everything to destroy it.. and this stupid ideas of MedvePutin are exactly from the same corner of lunatic house those guys are living in...

And to folks arguing about WWI, sorry folks but the identity of the country delivering final blow to Germans in WWI depends only on the country where a particular history book was published... you just have to read US, UK, French and Russian versions to realize that somehow each of the countries somehow attributes to itself the role of glorious winner... I really doubt there is any reason arguing about event that have taken place 100 years ago.

However, I cannot agree with approach of “lets just dump Europe and may it rot with Russians”; there is still a chance that this combined mess may pose considerable risks to the US, despite being separated from it by the ocean...

Again with the name calling. You have a massive anger problem. Go have a beer. Go get some. Go get anything!

How are the fairies from your position? Still flying around your head? That’s nice.

Oh, and its “you’re and idiot”. As in, ‘you are’...

Excellent exchange of views, I value your opinions highly.

“Hey Europe... screw with us and you will need to learn to speak rooskie... because America is tired of your pu$$ified ways! You are either WITH us... or AGAINST us... and there will be NO middle ground!”

Well, put it like that... OK, I’m against you - you LLS. ‘cos I’m tired of your ad-hominem ways. As for “speaking rooskie” I’ll add it to my English, Spanish and German, in case I ever stumble upon your “rooskie” equivalent braggiong about other people’s “pussified ways” and telling “you’re either with or against Mother Russia”.

Oh, and yes, you are entirely, 100% free from any call to “save my sorry ass”. I can sign you a waiver or something. Promise, I won’t call you - Hell, I’ll even campaign for not calling you.

Happy ? Glad I could be of service ! ;-)
