That's just troops and armorments it has nothing to do with the overall effectiveness of the military, the USA lost to vietnam, they had far more military strength and still lost badly, the USA has sucked in every major battle they have been in despite having the advantage, so again look at military history and educate yourself. And the whole USA fighting for freedom is such a joke, they didn't enter the world wars until years after they began and they invade thrid world countries and bomb things for no good reason most of the time too. They take heavy losses despite having a massive advantage in military strength and their military spending and sheer stupidity is the reason the world is on the verge of ecnomical collapse. People who dislike the USA dislike it for very good reason.

Your revisionist history is laughable, and I'm tempted to say that you are just posting flamebait material to get a rise out of people.

I'll give you the benefit of the doubt though and say: the reasons behind any large scale conflict, by any sovereign nation, especially one ruled by a democratic government are convuluted and influenced by the socio-political climate of the time.  For example, at the begining of WWII, America was undergoing an isolationist period.  Her people in general did not want to involve themselves in wars outside her borders; yet FDR still worked within the confines of that feeling to provide supplies for her Allies at the onset of the War.  The bombing of Pearl Harbor simply motivated her people to support the war they had now been thrust upon and America basically went balls deep after that.

Whats funny about your post is that you decry America for NOT getting involved in WWII, then say she gets TOO involved "for no good reason" in later wars...who should make the decision to get involved then I wonder?  You??

HAHA, now that I think about it, and re-reading your statement I'm pretty sure you just have an anti-American agenda you want to push - how original!  Have fun with that.

You made a mistake, USA didn't provide the Allies with supplies, they sold them to the allies, and I'm not being hypocritical you aren't being specific, why did USA attack vietnam, or the other 3rd world countries lately? Why are american bombs blowing up stuff that's worth less then the bombs? USA didn't fight for freedom when people were fighting for freedom they stayed on the side-lines and when USA was at the head of a war they are attacking third world countries that they have very little if any buisness being involved with, and if you guys didn't want to be involved in wars outside your borders why are you attacking 3rd world countries? And what do you mean revistnist history? Do you believe USA won the vietnam war? Again educate yourself, I don't need an agenda to make the USA look bad, stating facts does that.
