Being a former US MARINE, I take great offense at this.Originally posted by DarkJedi
France has the best special forces, their foreign legionnaires would wipe the floor with UK marine commandos (US marines arent even worth the effort)
The United States Marine Corps is - without a doubt - the best and most elite unit of any country. The US Marine Corps is the smallest branch of of the United States Military, yet is larger than the armed forces of most countries - including the UK.
Also.... It's unfair to say that Europe would be speaking German now if it wasn't for the US. Russia went through hell and back during WW2, and lost many more men. The difference is Russia was defending it's own turf, while the US wasn't. The US could have looked the other way.
And at the same time, the US was fighting Japan.

Oh no not the foreign legionnaires, wow they sound tough.
Everything about France is gay, end of story. Your all fags!
The French Foreign Legion is one of the toughest armies in the world.
Why?
Because it's soldiers are pretty fucking disposible. That's the whole idea behind it.Comment

Exactly.Originally posted by Indeed
not that I really care but...if the USA didn't win against a small country like Vietnam, do you really think they could invade the whole Europe? We' re talking abour UK, Germany, France, Russia, Spain, Italy etc
Watching all the patriots on this board talking about American history (conveniently re-written) and military invincibility (how many wars has the US actually won ON IT'S OWN in the last 50 years?) is very amusing.
Who knows? One day, they might actually snap out of their delusional fever.Comment

Actually, 15 countries is only the EU members.Originally posted by Indeed

Europe is much larger than that.
And that's not even counting Russia.
And what Rochard said: Everyone agrees the British SAS are better than nearly all othert fighting forces in the world.
US Marines don't even come close to the SAS.
To think otherwise is just silly.Comment

blah blah blah, all this talk of fighting is rather pointless, as you Europeans can't even compare your own specific countries to the U.S.
You need to compare an ever growing group of nations.
It won't matter until the EU goes from being an economic union (to better compete with the U.S.) to a political one with a central government and European countries reduced to cutural states. (to avoid that feeling of marginalization you have now in the geo-political spectrum).
See you in 50 or so years when this becomes relevant.
And all Europeans have Armies again.

Now that sounds familiar...
And for your interest, that's how India came into existence.
Obviously I won't know you in 50 years, but I would bet serious money the EU will keep getting stronger for a very long time.It won't matter until the EU goes from being an economic union (to better compete with the U.S.) to a political one with a central government and European countries reduced to cutural states.

Why?
Because countries are desperate to join. There's much more to be gained by being a member, than not.
And if nothing else, that is some serious fucking tax revenue.
Hmm, what should it be spent on ...Comment

Let's have a war in the winter in finland. I bet most of US based soldiers would be afraid of woods after that, I'm not even kidding. The good thing is that nobody wants to invade cold and miserable finland. Even the russians decided not to win us in the war some 50 years ago.
..and I'm off.Comment

If we were to start criticizing Canada, do you think we would get the same reaction?
What makes Americans so insecure that they constantly need to defend their country in arguments?
If it really is the greatest, you wouldn't need to keep talking about it. It should be obvious for all to see.Comment

If anyone saved europe from the germans it was russia. The brittish and the americans only fought about one third of the german military while russia fought the rest. If it had been the other way around the us/brittish forces wouldnt have had a chance.
Im sure everyone here thinks its great of the us to come here and stop hitler but to say that they "saved" europe is so fucking dumb.
The usa can try to invade all they want, all it would take is for france and russia to point a couple of nukes at your part of the world and you could take all your marines and shove em up your ass.Comment

Ok...this is the mother of all stupid threads.Originally posted by Tuga
How stupid are you? We have NUKES now! You wont see a the US taking over Europe without a couple of Nuke ending the fuckin war. Go play Command & Conquer and STFU!

I've seen equal amounts of insecurity from people from every country. It hasn't got much to do with what country they come from, it has to do with them being insecure individuals.Originally posted by SexySarah

Many Americans just take themselves far too seriously, and are so nationalistic, if I didn't know better I would think they were trying to be funny.Comment

is that why in afghanistan, when the US marines were sent up into the mountains to hunt down osama they couldn't cope with the altitude and tough conditions and the UK marines had to be called in to replace them?Originally posted by RocHard

Everyone is bitching about who has the best soldiers, when, the only job they would have in a war like that is to pick off the stray fucks that dodged the nukes.Comment

Why am I replying to this drivel?...
Because folks always respond to nationalist sentiment.
So in other words, it's like a collection of different states that chose to call itself a union?
Not sure how this is a response to the issue of European economic and political insecurity. More of an admission I guess.
Obviously I won't know you in 50 years, but I would bet serious money the EU will keep getting stronger for a very long time.
Hmm...you quote and respond yet the point escaped you?
Because countries are desperate to join. There's much more to be gained by being a member, than not.
And if nothing else, that is some serious fucking tax revenue.
Hmm, what should it be spent on ...
Of course there is "New" europe and "old" europe. LOL.Comment

I love these 'my penis is bigger than your penis' threads where a dozen or so Yanks beat up on two or three foreigners.
The prove is in the eating.
Who has burnt down the whitehouse and nearly every building in Washington ????
Well, Canada really, but it was Brit soldiers!
Incidentally, when we destroyed Washington, one building was left untouched out of respect. The Marine Barracks.
Oh, and as an aside, if the French and Spanish had not sided with the rebels, the US would never had claimed independance when they did.
Remember that. You owe it all to the French. Muhahahahahah....In 1904, Charles Newman-Berry connected two abacus's together using specially enhanced GrapeVine thus inventing the first Internet connection.
