You don't know what you are talking about.

It's not something I'm proud of but my country, Australia, has fought side by side with you ungrateful bastards in EVERY SINGLE CONFLICT you have been engaged in since Australia became a nation in 1901. We are the ONLY country in the world that can claim this.

And even today we are still only a country of only 19 million people. A tiny population by world standards.

You should learn more about other countries before you start spouting off.

Given Australia's small population -- just 19 million -- and its limited military resources, the commitment of 150 elite Special Air Services forces and a further 1,400 armed forces to the campaign is considerable.

The SAS are among the best of the best Special Operation Forces in the world. You are dismissed yet again.

I have heard this kind of sentiment expressed by dozens of American posters many, many times and relating to virtually every conflict of the last 100 years. Quite frankly it's ignorant and it's irritating... and that's something quite separate from my personal political beliefs. It annoys me because it's wrong and blantly so.

Whether you agree with war or not and irrepespective of political views, a brief glance at Australia's military history shows that it is the one country the USA has been able to rely on as an ally in all conflicts since Australia became a soverign nation in 1901.

So when you Americans want to know where those other countries were when you aked for help you can go here and educate yourselves: http://www.awm.gov.au/atwar/conflict.htm

Not really... blatant historical ignorance and distortion of the facts irritates me.

My brother is a Major in the Australian army and I am well aware of Australia's military history.

Another example: It seems to me that Americans are taught to believe that they won the Second World War single handedly. That's the impression I get from most US posters on GFY. But where would they have been without the Russians fighting the Germans on one front and the British on another. The Russians lost over 20 million miliary and civilians in WW2. Australians fought both in Europe and The Pacific during this time despite our tiny population. Northern Australia was bombed by the Japanese and we even had Japanese midget submarines in Sydney Harbour.

I'm just trying to set the record straight.

Speaking for myself...I am fully aware that the bulk of the German Army was arrayed against the Soviets. It was a joint effort...but a major contributer to the defeat of the Gemans was the American military industrial might...that supplied materials to all of the Allies involved...including the Soviets. Also while the Germans were fighting a two front war...actually three...so were the Americans.

Thank you for your advice...but I have been drinking cold ones tonight...the bottle is usually for breakfast. FYI I do not rent a room...it is free of charge. Hmm...there was a thread tonight about abortion...it is apparent that you were not aborted...but it is a shame that you do not know who your father is. Keep searching though kid...don't give up hope.

Sorry it took so long to respond. I've been unusally busy. Anyway, here goes.

2 things are very apparent from your post:

The first: You started with we were attacked on 9/11. And we most definitely were. Why in the heck then didn't we go AFTER THE PEOPLE THAT ATTACKED US! It wasn't Saddam Hussein. It was Osama bin Laden and his henchmen! Somewhere along the line Bush goes "Yeah, Bin Laden attacked us..but I really hate that Saddam guy, and we KNOW where HE is, so let's blow the fuck out of his country!" And we did! But it did NOTHING..absoutely NOTHING at all to get us closer to getting the fuckers that attacked us on 9/11. It did NOTHING to make this country safer from attacks by Al-Qaeda.

We did go after Bin Laden and Al Qaeda, and the search continues. I think the US can walk and chew gum at the same time. Searching for Bin Laden and taking out Saddam aren't mutually exclusive.

The second thing that's evident in your post is that you like to play the "What if" game. What IF Saddam bought a nuke from North Korea and gave it to Al-Qaeda? That's just LAME! What's to stop North Korea then from just giving it DIRECTLY to Al-Qaeda? Why use Saddam as a middle man. Not to mention Hussein and Bin Laden HATE each other! One is secular, one is not!

Your whole case for attacking Iraq does NOT improve our security against terrorism and does not get us any closer to finding Osama Bin Laden. Yet all the pro-war people won't even talk about how we've all but given up the search for Bin Laden.

To be proactive you have to play the "What if" game. To prevent terrorism you must anticipate events before they happen. As I said before North Korea is desperate for money. They also likely don't have many nukes at this point. I doubt they would give away their meal ticket or sell it for less than another state could pay. The possiblities that I named were just that. Possiblities. There are many many more possiblities as well for a brutal mad man with billions who hates you. As far as Saddam and Al Qaeda not liking each other. People who distrust and dislike each other have been known to put differences aside to take on a common enemy.

This, as well as alot of other threads created on the board have totally pushed GFY away from the type of board it was originally meant to be. What the fuck do the anti-american slanders coming from alot of you ungrateful bastards have to do being an "adult" webmaster?

Let's get back to the "Webmaster" topics and if you don't like the way OUR President is runnin' shit or the way of life in America is then you can simply get the fuck off of our soil and rant your bullshit elsewhere. I'd love to see some of ignorant fucks on GFY try living in some other piece of shit country. Perhaps the view of Army tanks in the morning is more appealing than this great country.

This thread is pointless and needs to be ended. Who are you guys to judge? Huh? Who? Be happy to be alive and well. Let's focus on making money which is why we're all here anyway.

I'm back fuckers!

Supplies.

Entering the war, the US was already the world's number one economic power in the world and became far and away the largest industrial power. Considering the vast number of supplies sent to Russia and Britain during the war, it can safely be said the outcome would have been in severe jeopardy and delayed for years if it could be won at all. How would Russian troops have made it to Berlin without 400,000 American trucks? The US supplied Russia with millions of tons of food, thousands of railway cars, half a million rails, vast amounts of copper, millions of tons of oil and gas, hundreds of ships, thousands of fighter planes and bombers, hundreds of thousands of machine guns, millions of tons of steels (enough to produce 70,000 tanks!), hundreds of thousands of tons of aluminum, and much more than that. ["The Second World War", Keegan]

The US sent even more to Britain, three times as much in dollar volume. By the end of the war 29% of British supplies were coming to the US.

Also important is that Britain sent much of her supplies to Russia.

Without US supplies, Russian troops would have been starving, fighting without ammunition after not too long and walking to Berlin.

That being said, your point is valid. Without an Eastern front there would have been a greater concentration of troops in the Atlantic coastal region and D Day might not have succeeded.

I think that the popular American view is as correct as yours. The Americans probably won the war by supplying everyone and the end of the war would have been delayed for many years without an Eastern front and eliminating the Japanese.

My own view is that Hitler would have lost eventually anyway. He made so many strategic errors as the war went on that he sealed his fate. That was Hitler. He would become obsessed with non-standard military views such as "never retreat" and hold to them even though it hurt his over-all position. His great generals
time and time again were overruled on what were probable winning strategies.

ADL Colin · 09-13-2003, 05:11 AM

I think JoeSixpack is correct in that Americans are largely ungrateful towards their past and present allies.

I?m pretty sure this has to do with the fact that most Americans feels they would win the wars anyway. This is very likely true.

However there is absolutely no such thing as token support. When the British, Australian, Canadians, or any other historical allies spend their tax dollars and send their boys to die they are every bit as deserving of the respect we expect for our own troops and military.

Always remember that when the Japanese bombed Pearl harbor, Canada and Australia immediately declared war on Japan.
