Perfect It's not there fault the media lies through there teeth (Worse than over here) Americans are taught that they won WW2 alone and saved everybody, and they also won in Vietnam.Well they are taught that they have never lost a war. They are taught that they won the revolutionary war when it was a draw (We Britain won the majority of the battles, and inflicted the majority of casualties) They are taught that America is "Free" when it's the complete opposite... They think they are the rulers of the World, but outside of the US everybody is laughing at them |

But if you meet it promptly and without flinching, you will reduce the danger by half. Never run away from anything. Never!" "You have enemies? Good. That means you've stood up for something, sometime in your life." Winston Churchill | |

Agree with you partially on somethings... not all. We've got a lot to brag about, and most of it rightfully so.. however. Our media is a cancer to our country and our politicians are deliberately dumbing down our citizens. Why are they doing that? I'm not sure... |

Well yes the media is a cancer, it is used to controll the masses. The media is supposed to take a neutral stance on politics, but as we have seen with the BNP, they really do not. A fact remains here, more people made the choice to tune into Britains got talent rather than tune in to watch the debate between the 3 main parties, what does that tell ya?? If i knew very little about politics and wanted to cast my vote, basing my views off the media the only parties who you can vote for are lab/con/lib.I hate the fact they NEVER talk about some of the other parties eg, BNP , UKIP?? |

Our American cousins always like to say to us Brits: "You'd be speaking German if it wasn't for us" My reply to that is: "Maybe so, but you'd be speaking red Indian if it wasn't for us!"

This is a hot topic tooofast, you are going to cause a flame war . Having said that the maps were hillarious. Now steveoouk Explain how the media lies through their teeth please? Why do you say americans are taught that they won ww2 alone? I went to school here in the states...(im an american) i was certainly not taught that. It is true that we are taught that the U.S was a big factor in the war . I often come across russians that say they won the war singlehandedly saying the brits were doing nothing but getting bombed, and the americans didnt enter the war untill 1945. They forget to mention that it was the americans and brits that cleaned up N.AFRICA sicily and s. italy these russians forget that during the final soviet offensive it would have never happened without the marshall plan without the american studebaker armored vehicles artillery pieces rifles and AMMUNITION. the rusians would have fought that final offensive with rocks and knives and the outcome would have been different they also forget to mention that before the soviet final offensive of berlin the BRITS AND AMERICANS pulverized berlin with bombs for a considerable amount of time softening . Another thing for those russians to consider is the 1 and a half million nazi troops pre-occupied fighting against the americans and brits in italy.. heinrich himmler attempted to broker a seperate peace treaty with the U.S and U.K in order to take the nazis from italy and fight the russians. To say that lord cornwallis surrendering his sword to the americans (at yorktown) in 1781 was a draw; by using that same logic with vietnam in which the vietnamese govt admitted to 1.1 million military deaths amongst the nva and vietcong all U.S combat troops pulled out of s. vietnam by august 1972 not because of military defeat but nixons promise to gradually pull out the troops with dignity... and amost every engagement in vietnam was won by the americans using your logic you would have to say america won the war. do you see the similarities? |
