Dude, just quit while you're ahead, this is exactly what the world hates about America, you fought a war 65 years ago, it was a team effort, yet you get people who want to milk it as 100% victory for them... and it's still going on all these decades later, haven't you milked it enough yet? It's not gracious in anyway to give someone help and then bang on about it for the next 65 years saying "We did everything, now suck it". I'm very grateful for what America did, but it's hard to appreciate it in this situation... Don't ruin it for the rest of your nation who are gracious |
If you are indeed grateful, you can show it by demonstrating that the British reject the foolish, foolish apeasement policy of Neville Chamberlain. It didn't work with Hitler, it doesn't work with Islamic terrorists.
Yet, today, America's leaders are reenacting every folly that brought these great powers [Russia, Germany, and Japan] to ruin -- from arrogance and hubris, to assertions of global hegemony, to imperial overstretch, to trumpeting new 'crusades,' to handing out war guarantees to regions and countries where Americans have never fought before. We are piling up the kind of commitments that produced the greatest disasters of the twentieth century.
