One would have thought, that after WWII, the Allies would have realised, what their, what one can only call a dick move, wrought upon the world after The Great War, they would have considered those debts settled. Plus, there was the Marshall Plan. Give money and stuff to Germany, so they can pay GW reparations for France and GB? Eh?

Helped to get their asses kicked by the Germans long enough for us to decide to help them out.Originally posted by OzzyKP View PostHey, they helped, it wouldn't be nice to leave them out.
Also, Russia is on there. Really? They surrendered to Germany."Flutie was better than Kelly, Elway, Esiason and Cunningham." - Ben Kenobi

The US helped no one by being *****-asses and staying out of the conflict as long as they did. Many more lives would've been saved is the US had the balls the other nations had."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."

Wasn't our fight. Let the European monarchies, the Ottoman Sultanate, and the French Republic squabble over the Balkans.

How so? Seriously. The war ended up causing some drastic changes to the European political landscape and the democratization or Sovietization of all the nations involved but that that was going to happen wasn't evident at the time. It wasn't a war against an evil empire or for freedom or anything like that... it was a war for territory and power and nothing else.Originally posted by Asher View PostMorals.

Well, what about World War II? That WAS a war against an evil empire."The issue is there are still many people out there that use religion as a crutch for bigotry and hate. Like Ben."
