The truth of the matter is that ‘we’ didn’t beat Germany. We merely shipped boatloads of youngsters over to Europe twice to leave most of them behind white crosses. For this America got nothing except more and more communism under corrupt political administrations.
The First World War was Britain’s war where she gambled on winning and enlarging her empire and sphere of influence. It didn’t work and the result was that Herr Hitler became dictator of Germany.
In the Second World War, Stalin won because Roosevelt liked Joe Stalin and gave him Eastern Europe as a prize. We got nothing and left thousands of white crosses to mark the graves of the young men who were slaughtered.
As far as Britain was concerned it took ages before they got off rationing things and the war helped to entrench socialism. Their empire was reduced to only a part of the British Isles and Hong Kong, which they gleefully gave to the communist Chinese.
“We merely shipped boatloads of youngsters over to Europe twice to leave most of them behind white crosses.”
While I agree with you sentiments, that one statement is factually incorrect. We did leave WAY too many of our finest young men buried in Europe, but it is nowhere near “most” of those who were sent over. It is a relatively small percentage, almost certainly under 5%. Still too many, way too many...but your argument (with which I agree) will be much more convincing if no one can attack your facts.
