But you swing it anyway you want. By the end of World War II, more than 19 million women were in the workforce and 350,000 women had served in the US Armed Forces. The population of Canada in 1945 was 12 million. Seriously, thank you for your contribution... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hell, it was figured allied casualties for the campaign were to be 1,000,000. Let me guess, the estimates came from the guys wanting to drop the bombs Americans will eat up anything as was shown in Iraq, WMD's SMFH Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should they feel it's ok to help a regime change in their favour? You can't point the finger at the elected President and say it his fault, it's all America's doing and if that's who they put in charge then America has to own it. I would prefer if my tax dollars weren't funding a war that ultimately may have been averted if not for US involvement. Maybe you're ok with it Nobody was attacking us. take it up with the democrat war machine it's their baby top to bottom 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

American war production proved astonishing. At the huge Willow Run plant in Michigan, the greatest generation turned out a B-24 heavy bomber every hour. A single shipyard could mass-produce an ocean-going Liberty merchant ship from scratch in a week. In just four years, the United States would produce more airplanes than all of the major war powers combined. Germany, Japan, Italy, and the Soviet Union could not build a successful four-engine heavy bomber. America, in contrast, produced 34,000 excellent B-17s, B-24s, and B-29s. By 1944, the new U.S. Navy had become the largest in the history of civilization at more than 6,000 ships. Its B-29 heavy bomber program and Manhattan Project efforts together cost more $50 billion in today’s dollars. America sent troops throughout the Pacific islands, and to North Africa, Italy, and Western Europe. The United States staged two simultaneous bombing campaigns against Germany and Japan while conducting surface and submarine campaigns against all of the Axis powers. At the same time, the U.S. supplied the Soviet Union with 400,000 heavy trucks, 2,000 locomotives, 11,000 railcars, and billions of dollars worth of planes, tanks, food, clothing, and strategic resources. By 1943–44, the U.S. also supplied about 20 percent of Britain’s munitions. If the measure of wartime success is defined by quickly defeating and humiliating enemies at the least cost in blood and treasure, then America waged a brilliant war. Of the major powers, only America’s homeland was not systematically bombed. It was never invaded. While its 400,000 fatalities were a terrible cost of victory, the United States lost the smallest percentage of its population of any major power. By late 1944, the American M1 rifle, B-29 heavy bomber, P-51 Mustang fighter, Gato-class submarines, Essex-class aircraft carriers, and Iowa-class battleships were the best weapons of their class. America did not win World War II alone. But without the United States, the war against Axis fascism would have been lost. all true, and with a Democrat in the White House coming straight out of the Great Depression no less. look at us now... looking at electing two people who deserve no place in office being the leading contenders to be the POTUS again. Americans are fucking dumb as shit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guys a clown. I get that he has Canadian pride, that’s great. But he regularly shits on the United States, and he would be speaking German, if it was not for us. Evvvvvvvery one was against the invasion after the fact but none of them can prove that they weren’t all on board before the invasion. And I am supposed to provide links about history that should be common knowledge. Yah ok. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
