if you honestly think that the UK could have lasted alone against Germany without Canadian support

The statement you posted did not look like “a funny from CC, who is allways making jokes in political threads” It was rather looking like another false pride thing being after all a Canadian… The above two statements are not too different IMO. You are entitled to think differently.

connecting those two comments requires several leaps and assumptions which i did not make, and yet you did.  Stop that.

Without Germany declaring War on the cowardous US which wouldn’t dare to enter the war on their own, we probably would have won. So, you didn’t save us from total soviet occupation, you introduced the threat of total soviet occupation.
I wonder how many problems the US has solved that would never have been problems had the US not existed the first place.

PS: If you think that characterising the population of a nation by an adjective with a semi-appropriate reasoning to explain that characterisation is “insulting”, you might wonder what the rest of world thinks of you if one of your kind calls a billion of people “fuckers”.

And how many wars has your nation won?

Stop with the personal attacks F_alk, you marginalize yourself with that kind of crap.

If I remember correctly, Germans elected Hitler to power through a democratic process.  Yes, they are responsible for the atrocities commited by your “army that could have won the war.”

If your army had won the war without the “cowardly US getting involved”, All Jews in Europe would have been slaughtered by your nations brutal system.  Are you saying you wished that would happen?Â

No, I don’t think he is.

It took the US, USSR, Britian, France, and other nations to put a stop to the atrocities committed by your people.

Rebuilding your nation after the war was a great gesture of mercy by the allies considering what your nation committed against the rest of the world in terms of destruction and atrocities.  I for one am one glad American that my nation interviened and your nation lost.

Becareful Rune.  I removed a line, i think it went a bit too far.
My comments are in bold

RB - not only did you collosally miss the point, but you . . . i don’t know how to finish this sentance without being really rude.
But of course in your mind, you are the slammist debator having just given a solid thrashing to that motionless strawman. 
Congrats.

I’ll be reading this thread tonight after work when I have more time.

What are the chances of a lock?

Chances look good…

Well, let’s sum this up before the lock this way…

There is some merit in the comparison between Germany and Iraq in the respective time periods.

But perhaps we should add a few more points of comparison…

Most of the residents of both nations went along with what appeared to be, and was presented as, “good for the country.”  Things like food being available again, not being subjected to outside rule, etc (the 91 Gulf War Cease Fire is dreadfully akin to Versailles, apparently we forgot THAT lesson).

When the tyrants were deposed, MOST people were pleased, and again they backed the change due to things like food being available, family not dying, etc.

And again, there were a few folks (individuals and small groups) who created chaos in the aftermath by fighting a war their nation had already lost, inflicting heavy casualties on occupation forces and natives alike.

The comparisons between Iraq and Germany died out long ago in this thread.

No real useful content, so you guys can find another thread to piss each other off in.

Will this thread be locked?

Yes.
