But given the choice of fighting or losing everything, the French and British probably would feel today the cost was worth it. As it was, Hitler did in Germany as bad as anyone. I feel for the Germans for what they went through due to having that regime leading them. As for Britain losing superpower status and the bomb, Britain got the A-Bomb under the terms of the Manhattan Project cooperation. As for Superpower status, Britain is still one of the great powers, and as influence go they are still up there, if just for language and culture. I flip on news broadcasts around the world, and most gov'ts hire english speaking people with english accents to do their news broadcasts. Not to knock Germany, though, the influence they have and the potential there are significant, given their position in Central Europe and their Economy. Germany could also be a nuclear power if they wanted, but they see no need at the time, and as the US and UK are their allies now, things should be OK for them defensively for some time to come. As for the European colonies being lost, that decline started after WW1. Due again to expense. DEP |

Subject: Germany invented it. We shot it down

So glad Germany cost Britain its superpower status and robbed them of developing the A-bomb first (Tube Alloys). ![]() Rob Now the truth comes out, you are proud of your country's slaughter of innocent men, women and children. I bet you are also proud of the 6 million Jews and the 6 million non Jews you guys killed. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired Of course not, just responding in kind to that UK-US arrogance over winning the war attitude. Are YOU proud of US history of the transatlantic slave trade that killed millions of Africans or the displacement and destruction of the Amerindians? What about the KKK and southern segregation, with all the murders that came from that? How about US abortion at 1.6 babies murdered per year? Seems like you only care about German atrocities. Try looking in the mirror pal and think about what the US has done historically, not to mention other nations. The colonial powers killed millions. Stalin killed 30 million of his people (and the Poles, Gypsies, Jews, etc...) and China under Mao killed 50 million. Ever heard the atrocities in Cambodia, in South America, in Africa, in the Balkans, and the Australian slaughter of Aboriginals? Rob Rob And that is how you justify 55 million dead by German aggression in WW II? . SWINE.

What about the KKK and southern segregation, with all the murders that came from that? See above! We brag about the END of it! I don't see you cheering about VE day. How about US abortion at 1.6 babies murdered per year? BTW, doesn't Germany have a pretty liberal abortion policy? Seems like you only care about German atrocities. Only when people wax poetic about that period and place. Try looking in the mirror pal and think about what the US has done historically, not to mention other nations.

Rob Who around here is defending Mao, Stalin, Pol Pot, the Hutus, so on, so forth? |

What about the KKK and southern segregation, with all the murders that came from that? Unlike you I will express shame over my history where shame is due as in your examples. How about US abortion at 1.6 babies murdered per year? You are off by about 1,500,000. Seems like you only care about German atrocities. YOU were the one bragging about what you did during the war. In this thread you brag about "laying waste to Europe and Russia." In another thread you boasted of how many people died to bring your country down. Try looking in the mirror pal and think about what the US has done historically, not to mention other nations. The colonial powers killed millions. Stalin killed 30 million of his people (and the Poles, Gypsies, Jews, etc...) and China under Mao killed 50 million. Ever heard the atrocities in Cambodia, in South America, in Africa, in the Balkans, and the Australian slaughter of Aboriginals? Rob What has that to do with your bragging about your country's slaughter of tens of millions and your concentration camps? You Germans started that war. All your boasting about wonder weapons and what others learned from them can't change that. Dan, U.S. Air Force, retired |
