So you are clogging the threads with impertanant stuff too. You should take your own advice.

The cold war was really nice compared to what we have now. Lots of good defense industry jobs, a single enemy. Yeah wars are to damn complex now.

Before you lined up your army, the enemy lined up his and whoever was left standing won. These days its hard to figure out who the enemy is, even more who to shoot.

Life was simple...

The French, the Germans and the Russians are about to form their own alliance. The price we have paid for our "go it alone" policy is the rest of the world is about to let us do just that.

BRAVO, BRAVO!!!

So we go it alone. Such has always been the case unless others see some benefit in following us. Ever read "The Little Red Hen"? This is the same story over and over again. Soon as they need us for something, they will be back. When they don't need us, we go separate ways. Is there something so strange about it? We are going in different directions so they form their own alliances. Soon as they and us have a common goal or they can sponge off us, they will be back.

Someone trying to change history to suit an agenda (such as slam the USA at all costs) by trying to change they facts is revisionist history.

Such as the people who were trying to say we were picking on the poor innocent people if Nagasaki and Hiroshima when we dropped the bomb on them. And that it wasn't needed etc........

I never stated the Russians didn't help. They did, the war was shorter as a result. But we wouldn't have lost as was insinuated if Adolf had not made the mistake of attacking Russia.

Adolf war ein 'Dummkopf'.

Wonder when people will learn that the left is not evil while the right is righteous and vice versa.

When otherwise rational people are no longer seduced by fanatical words from a righteous voice or pretty face.

Correct, but the German army was most excellent.
