I think Europe would have been a better place if Germany had defeated the USSR. The USSR won the war in Europe, not the Americans.

[MrHEILDEMFUHRER1]

@VictorLepanto good as long as you understand the Battle of Britain

that is al..

[VictorLepanto]

@LordGeorgeRodney: It is useless talking to you about this. You have no idea of the history involved here.

[LordGeorgeRodney]

@VictorLepanto wtf?! Are we talking about Battle of Britain cus I will send you the way I sent Lottowinner999 to.

Basically pawned!

[VictorLepanto]

@LordGeorgeRodney: Not only American planes but American pilots. FDR did send over American pilots clandesdenly to fight for Britain. Churchill simply needed everything he could throw @ the Nazis, much of it was suppled by the U.S. It is a simple fact.

[LordGeorgeRodney]

@VictorLepanto LOL!

The comment you said about BoB

'' If the U.S. had not supplied Britain during the Battle of Britain,''

That was what I meant.

[VictorLepanto]

@LordGeorgeRodney: Finally something we can agree on. Yes, your comments are too stupid for words.

[LordGeorgeRodney]

@VictorLepanto

Yes to fight the war against the Germans AFTER BoB I originally made the comment about your comment about American planes in Battle of Britain.

THAT was too stupid for words

[LordGeorgeRodney]

@mixerd0822 we are not talking about Russia we are talking about Battle of Britian in 1940

How many times do people need to be told Russia was NOT in the war then & NEITHER were the Americans!
