Naemanson, I agree with much of what you say, (about aspects of "fighting for freedom", but not about the relevancy of WW II. Without it, it's certain that the "free world" would not exists as we currently know it; and IMO it's highly probable that that many of us would be far worse off . . (highly imperfect as today's world is)

All the kids I've ever known can appreciate the relevance of WW-II; we owe it to humanity to continue to give them the opportunity to do so. WW-II is that all too rare example of a necessary war . .

However, do remember that we Brits suffered a little in that war, too.
