First you stated pure conjecture:

Then your own personal perversion of reality:

Then your similar dyslexic veiw :

I’ve simply responded that in the case of defeated Germany none of what you’ve proffered applies, Germany was defeated in conventional battles, by conventional means, by superior adversaries, before the use of nuclear weapons by America!

What you fail to understand is that America started with infinitely more freedoms than any others and can afford to loose a larger percentage than any others and afterwards still remain the most free and libertine!

Nice opportunity for MacArthur's photo shoot.

A circumstance directly attributable to the failure of German logistical planning and evidence of superior American strategic planning and tactical execution!
You must be confusing your photos; MacArthur would be in the Philippines not at the collapse of the German Westfront!

Twice in the twentieth century being brought to heel and bowing to American will proves otherwise!

You must be reading Russian history! Russia may have fielded more men, and lost more men, but they where wearing American boots, shooting American bullets, moving in American vehicles, eating American food, and wiping their a$$es with German tongues.

Time does not evolve it only advances. Circumstances evolve! Your analysis and description of the “game” is myopic.

The number of Chevy pickup truck forums and the number of participants in those forums most likely out number many other forums!

A lesson Germany has twice been schooled in by America. A lesson you’ve undoubtedly taken to heart considering German military impotence on display today in Afghanistan. America is not a militarist country and militarism in defense of freedom and liberty is no vice something you would do well to learn!
