The British proved well able to save their own sorry asses, Guest. They, and they alone, stopped the Germans in 1940 when they won the Battle of Britain. That was the first German defeat in the war.    Hitler shelved all plans to invade Britain after the summer of 1940. The USA was not even in the war until Dec '41.

Further to that, it was on the vast steppes of Russia in '41-'44 that the German army suffered its truly decisive defeats and irrevocably lost the war. The USA was not responsible for that victory either.

Oh, you helped, all right, but you did not save Britain's sorry ass, they saved themselves, and if you think you did, well, you are just engaging in a little self-serving rewriting of history.

Besides, the French saved your sorry asses in the American Revolution. Remember? (grin) It was their naval victory over the British that enabled George Washington to defeat Cornwallis at Yorktown. So why are you Americans giving the French all this shit now over "freedom fries" and stuff like that? Short memory?
