Haha!! There ya go

We have saved them almost as much as we have saved France.

"We have saved them almost as much as we have saved France"

That is simply not true, ww1 Britian was having difficulties and when the US joined in the difficulties stoped, however, the small amount the US helped, less than 10% of the western front troups, probably did not do much. It is considered that the French were the ones who did the most to win ww1.

Now WW2 I will not include Japan as that was a war that only the US (mainly)were involved in.
North Africa: Yes American forces did help in the west, however the war was won here in Egypt by the British in late 1942 (untill that point the germans had one every battle).
Italy: Again American forces did help a great deal but it was the British who did most
Burma: This was only the British and Aussies who were involved.
D-Day and the rest of France: This was again helped by America, but it was the british who had more troups i think 5-1. the US landed on the toughest beaches but then had a easy ride. With the execption of Arnhem it was all Britan with help from America.
The main areas of war for WW2 were in the air and in eastern europe. This is where Germany lost the war, post D-Day got the credit but the work was in the air and by the Russians in the east.
The Battle of Britan: this happened before America joined the war and it was the british who won.
The german air attatcks: this again was the British RAF with help from the american Air Force. this is what won the war and it has been covered up due to the horfic loss of servillan lives and distructrun of German Cities such as Dresden.
Eastern Europe: This was the Russians who won this and the second most imporant part of the war. No American involvement.
While WW2 would not have been won if the US were not invloved they did not win the war on there own, Britian and Russia were more improant-possibly even Canada and Australia helped more.

I don't Know of any other major war in which britan and america were involved together, Sorry.

Well the only war that Britian and the America have fourght against each other is the american war of independence.
This was a war that Britian Did not realy want to win. Britian owned 1/3 of the world and was not bothered about America, so Britian sent over paied Germans who when the going got tough they were off.

Haha. First of all, it was a joke! I know it was an inaccurate statement, the reason being because it was hyperbole.

Oh my gosh! They don't teach you about the war of 1812 in England? Haha, no wonder, i'm sure it is embarassing how Great Britain was beaten again. Seriously though, how could you not know this? (The United States declared War on Great Britain on June 12, 1812.)

Was that why they were fighting and dying? How retarded.
They wanted to win or they wouldn't have been fighting and wouldn't have paid others to fight.

[Travis]

And I will be back later to destroy what you said about WWII (got lots of hw)

[chelsea_gabriel]

"They wanted to win or they wouldn't have been fighting and wouldn't have paid others to fight."

they wanted to win yes- what i ment to say was that they were not bothered wether they lost or won. As far as money they were the richest country in the world- it ment there soliders could rape and piladge else where.

Where's the love!?!? Why can't England and the US be friends?


I like England, personally. It's a rather nice place. And......you can't go wrong with the accent!!

[chelsea_gabriel]

I have not heard of 1812 sorry you are probably correct as far an not being taught- just as you are taught about WW2 and the war of independence as i said lots of history books are incorrect. English ones as well as American ones. As a history student it is your job to work out what is real and what if fact. I would also watch your teachers as they will try to make you belive any thing ( as will your government)

[chelsea_gabriel]

"Why can't England and the US be friends? "

We are friends look at the war against terriosim.

[Oddjob]

YAY we're all friends

[DreamChaser]

Heya,

I would also watch your teachers as they will try to make you belive any thing ( as will your government)

I dont have a choice my Mom is my teacher (technically, I learn almost purely from books now)
