The USA bombed the hell out of germany, the Germans damn near wiped the UK off the map and would have if not for USA.
This is BS the USA won the war end of story.
Be damed thankful we saved your Kingdom.
I'm out of here going to go ride my Fat Gurl ( Honda Valkyrie Interstate) aka the Fat Gurl.
Your right, someone bashed Trump and I took it personal. I need to not do that LOL.
We're friends again.
The VIIIth Air Force and Bomber Command combined. Remember it was NOT an American- only story, very far from it. Remember also the Soviets rolling up the Axis' eastern flank and diverting resources that way. The US did not win the war alone, and it could not have done so. It could be the Arsenal of Democracy or the Army of it, but not both together and so it chose the former.
Despite the propaganda (negative) put out by the UK at the time we were not only not nearly wiped off the map, but had taken stock of the enemy and defeated him in the skies.
And right at that point Germany was saved, as the US Army War Plans Department decided that foreign bases would be available for USAAF bombers. Thus, plan AWPD-1 was adopted (medium range, medium altitude heavy bombers- B-17, B-24, B-29 & B-32) and AWPD-42 (long range, very high altitude super-heavy bombers- B-36) was dropped. That specifically prevented the nuclear destruction of Germany, which AWPD-42 had planned for 250 Mk.III devices - one or more over every city and town in 1947.
The point being, the RAF had despite grevious losses totally defeated the bombined Axis air forces to the point where US strategic planners dropped one plan totally in favour of another.
Trouble is, he's an easy target to bash. But look at who does the bashing- the progressive Liberal elite. Shame as I think he has the makings of a very good POTUS, plus he's the right man at the right time. Let the swamp draining continue.
Yup. He will hold up his side of a deal. Now all the GOP need to do is grow balls enough to back him.We have a POTUS now that will back our allies unlike the POS that we had for 8 years.
Or posting on social media...I'm not so sure. The two fingers were very forcibly shown to Trump.
The next focus will be WH staff using private email accounts.
I think he has. Just waggle it a bit and he'll have a 'happy ending'....get a grip of yourself man
Without the USA the UK would not exist.
The USA does not need the UK or the other allies the only reason we ask is for unification. Bush was going into Iraq without any allies as he said "you are with us or against us"
On any conflict The USA provides more $ and man power than all the allies combined.
The only thing keeping Communist from attacking our so called allies is the fact the USA makes it very clear the USA will PROTECT it's allies.
Every Country the USA has defeated we end up protecting.
As far as the USA asking the UK for unification that is only a gesture, like inviting you to a large party does not matter if you come or not.
And then we kicked you out.
I thank you, and Canada for the loans,
mind if we had offset it against the tax you still owe King George,
BBC NEWS | UK | UK settles WWII debts to allies
And UK paid back 100% of our war loans (final instalment was paid after 61 years)!
But in the "brave new world" with "The Bear" threatening across the East German frontier it was deemed politically correct to write off what it was claimed Germany owed. So in 1953 it was decided to cancel their debt. Countries cancelling the debt included the United States, the UK and France, along with Greece, Spain and Pakistan – countries which are major debtors today.
And then we wondered how (West) Germany's industry could be so competitive!
