Here is where you are wrong America gave a lot to the war, if it wasn't for American aid soviets wouldn't be able to hold off the germens for too long, they would push them back to either Poland or Ukraine until German reinforcements came and wait for spring or summer to continue to invade, and Britain could only wish to liberate France from the Germans during WW2.

and plus without American intervention the Italian/Sicily campaign would never happen which would mean Benito would probably last longer and continue the legacy of Fascism.

Yes i understand the the U.S.S.R lost a lot of casualties but they were in the war for longer and their entire strategy was to send in as much bodies as possible and hope for the best and 400,000 is a crazy number to even fathom every country in WW2 contributed a huge amount an the U.S in no exeption

I think you’re underestimating the importance of the U.S lend lease. The lend lease is what saved Briton who was vastly in need of supplies. And even if it was not the deciding factor on the eastern front it most certainly vastly helped the soviets. Did the Soviet’s ever send supplies to other allied country’s no I think not. It was also the U.S did operation torch to retake North Africa from axis control and to meet up with the British then they invaded through Sicily. And capitulated Italy then d-day came and the U.S and the British liberated France. All while the U.S was fighting the Japanese in an island hopping campaign, so let’s see what they did overall, operation torch invasion of Sicily capitulation of Sicily d-day the freeing of France and the capitulation of Japan and what did the soviets do, capitulate Germany with huge amounts of U.S supplies and air and naval support

the Russians would not even be able to make their advance if it weren't for the huge u.s lend lease of 11.3 billion in supplies (180 billion in today's currency) plus Germany had to spread their forces out to fight in Africa and occupy their conquered territory's, im also sorry for assuming the 10 to 1 advantage was a real fact and thank you for enlightening me on that. But the one real ally the soviets had was the winter.

That's not sacrifice, that's providing benefit, those are two different things. What did America Sacrifice that comes close to the sacrifice given by China, Russia and Poland?

Can you tell me how many lives America Lost? How many lives all the other countries lost?

Just because America lost few lives than others that doesn't mean that America didn't provide you dumbass your meme isn't Historical it is false information. If it wasnt for America the Japanese would still make the chines suffer i hope you relize that.

Also, I never said America didn't provide. But to say that this provision we supplied was hard is erroneous in itself because Germany put everything it could at Russia and hit a brick wall. With Logistical complications, tanks breaking down (Tigers were known to do this) and Russia employing scorched earth tactics, German forces had a hell of a time resupplying themselves. Then we came in and "zerged" their undefended occupations. Granted, they had garrisons and Germans worked within the capacity of their garrisons to divert forces to support themselves, but it simply wasn't enough. We had unmitigated supply lines because a gay man named Alexander Turing had cracked the German Enigma code so we knew the location of all their Subs (formally known as U-Boats) and which convoys they were going to hit.

I daresay that the biggest provider to the war effort was a gay computer nerd from the United Kingdom. Not the US. We just attacked an undefended series of territories.

Change my mind.

Also, mind your tone, civility is called for here, not cognitive dissonance.

providing and sacrificing are the almost the same thing America entered the war because it was attacked cause yes tecnically that does not mean US was willing on joining the war but America didnt have to declare war as it was japans doing to criple America and america gave some of their shermans to russa and Britain during the war, and plus without America in d-day no german troops would be distacted in the western front so more germans for russians to worry about, and since germans were resupplying themeselfs like you claim, they had to destroy it or the would get more resources, tiring the American army, and that was the mans dicision not the US unless im proven wrong, and also for the end i dont give a f**k a lot of people curse in this platform.

By the time America got to Berlin Russia was already nearly there as their refit of their army had been completed. Between the battles of Stalingrad and Moscow, the Germans had been crippled. Russia didn't need us to pound in Germany. We were just an extra nail in the coffin.

For someone who gets mad about being wrong about history. You sure are wrong about History. Look up Executive Order 9066. Japanese Americans were put in internment camps simply because they were Japanese.

not really the U.S.S.R only really sent a lot of bodies and hoped it would work while France was humiliated by surrendering after 6 weeks and Norway, Denmark, Poland Greece and Yugoslavia all fell really quickly and if it weren't for U.S aid Briton and the U.S.S.R would have fallen the U.S was also instrumental for both D-day and the Sicilian landings they provided the Allies needed to win the war.

We'll get there one day. Yeah. Strategic victory in attacking nothing but garrisons. Good Job USA.

Looks like you forgot about the battle of Stalingrad...

Or Moscow - where Soviets were outnumbered 2:1 and still won...

Meanwhile, Operation Overlord ranked about 200,000 allied forces against the German 95k. Canada Broke through first, USA lost all but two of their tanks because the amphibious modifications were not sufficient to keep them afloat. Along with this, due to inclimate weather, many units were broken up and had formed into ad hoc units with no clear objective. Once they reached the top of the plateau, the gun towers that they were looking for weren't there, so they couldn't even use those to their advantage. US had a really hard time on D-Day and didn't really win, actually. It was a statistical loss. However, we did have in our favor prior aerial engagements in France were our airborne assets outnumbered germany 30:1. (Again, real sacrifice here people. Outnumbering, outgunning...)

Cue Operation Fortitude, the intentional destruction and misdirection of German forces to make them think we were going to invade north france. Nothing burger. They bought it.

That said though, our offensive was the worst case scenario. We did not meet our objectives. However, we did have our collective asses covered, thanks to pre-planning and operation fortitude.

i'm not saying that the U.S took as much as a sacrifice as the soviets. but thats because their leader was not a brutal dictartor who sent out political opposition with no weaponry to die on the front line. the reasons the soviets sacrificed so much is because Stalin didn't care about lives he was willing to let as many of his people die as long as it kept him in power. The reason the U.S didn't lose as much as the soviets is because they had better weaponry and supplies. having a lot of deaths doesn't make you the automatic most important country to winning the war.

Yeah, that's categorically false, the Russian Army had refitted its entire army in 1942. That's part of why the Germans attacked in 1941 as they were in the middle of refitting. Once the russians refit, the tide of war changed.

In the battle of Stalingrad Stalin recruited 400,000 people which were every resident of the city women and children and all. If those are not in ixpirienced the I don’t know what is.

You like seeing women and children blown up. As you said "Double Kill." literally glorified the death of others who were within their residences. Their only crime was being born in a country that went to war with USA.

Your appeal was only to the death of the Japanese, it had nothing to stuff blowing up, or you would've thought that the bombing of Pearl Harbor was "dope" as well.

You're not fooling anyone.

As for politics? It was more me thinking out loud that there are other better examples of those who glorify the killing of children, even if it doesn't apply here (which it does.)
