Some of you really should read up on your history books.

Until the USA joined the war, the allies were just about holding their own against the axis powers.

The USA was supplying the UK (by the way IHaveNOFriendsAndISuck
, England is PART of the UK you idiot) with supplies, and despite the losses incured on the US by german U Bpoat attacks they refused to enter the war.

The Japs, pre empting an attack on themselves from the USA attacked the States forcing them into the war.

The battle of Britain was fought mainly by Brits, with polish,Australian and Canadian help.

The Atomic bomb was co- developed by the british, Russians and US. The US actualy stiffed us Brits out of the complete designs of the Atomic bomb after reigning on an intel sharing deal that led to the development of the weapon.

You people can argue all you like about who was *better* during the war. However, even if the Japs had not attacked Perl Harbour, the US would have been drawn into the war, as Hitler had plans for attacks on mainland USA (Airships were the idea iirc)

It was a nasty mess, and people on both sides lost a lot of good people, luckily for the US, their civilian casualty lists were extremely small compared to those of the Europeans and Asian sub-continants.

Please, IHaveNOFriendsAndISuck
or whatever, drop the facking pro USA is the best thing in the world crap, your country has done is fair share of nasty shit as well...
