wtf? We don't think we "saved" you. We came too late but brought enough to turn the tide. I personally think about all the Allied and Russian casualties together. This was a victory we achieved *together*. Try to remember that.

Delightful. Twist my words a little more. It's incredibly charming of you.
I never said I was angry, I said it's slightly disrespectful to misrepresent those who fought and died for us. Not only to the WWI veterans, but the American soldiers shown in this video. So why don't you try another angle before jumping down my throat next time.
Tosser.
re: slaphappy ( ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
re: slaphappy (McBride), this cover of the song was performed by Dropkick Murphy -- an American band. The person who made the video was likely American. It is Veterans Day today in America. Today is not just about WW1. Lastly, Dropkick Murphy can hardly be considered pro-American government.You are just so partisan and cranky about Americans that you took this the wrong way.
Remember that the American people share little in common with people like Bush.
I know this too ... ( 1 week ago by JohnBello1947)
I know this too well my son. But many Americans see this from a different point of view.
Very often I heard: "AMERICAN weapons and AMERICAN soldiers had to come to Europe to win your wars for you"
Parols like these make me very angry.
...What the HELL ... ( 1 week ago by 1SlapHappy1)
...What the HELL are you talking about? Are you really that moronic? I never -ONCE- said anything angry, you people are killin' me with your bloody assumptions. Jeez... I'm WELL AWARE who DM is, I've seen them live MULTIPLE times, and I KNOW the origins of this song, I've performed it on several ocassions. I never said ANYTHING about DM being pro-American, you sound like a complete nutter with all the accusations you're throwing out. Yeesh.
Finally, even if I ... ( 1 week ago by 1SlapHappy1)
Finally, even if I WAS making an attack (which I was -not-) it doesn't justify you making up numbers to attempt to prove a point. It's Remembrance day here in Canada, by the by, I was merely stating how the historical inaccurcy of this video gives the wrong message. Christ...
JohnBello, they ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
JohnBello, they make me angry as well. I am a veteran and know better. You have to remember there are so many people in the U.S., that most people don't need to serve in the military. They therefore have little understanding of the subject.
I did not make up ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
I did not make up any numbers. I simply provided a link to the actual data.
I'm sorry if I am a ... ( 1 week ago by JohnBello1947)
I'm sorry if I am a little bit sensible on that subject. But I was raised by my grandfather who was a WW1 veteran, and my father died because of WW2.
In which war did you serve. The gulf war?
But you're right. ... ( 1 week ago by JohnBello1947)
But you're right. It seems the majority just doesn't know it better. I always wonder if it's what people are taught at school in the United States.
JohnBello, yes, ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
JohnBello, yes, Desert Storm. I was an avionics specialist on the F-15E. I am more sensible because (1) I served with our allies and would never want to go to war without the British as company and (2) I have since completed quite a lot of education.

actually this song ... ( 1 week ago by dylanvanzandt)
actually this song wa by a Scottish Australian named Eric Bogle in 76 and you are correct today officially became about more than WWI in 54 (the war that would end wars) was the reason for this armistace but it didnt last long and many Americans died in WWI as well as in France or Germany. America came to help and some people arent appreciative? i dont understand it but just as well the Dropkick Murphys are proud as Americans and some serverd inthe US military to defend our country
The main problem is ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
The main problem is that we showed up rather late for both wars, particularly in WW2 which was exponentially worse. We should have mobilized while the French army and British expeditionary forces were withdrawing from Dunkirk. Providing food and arms to Britain was nice but not really enough. Consider that while the Germans bombed the hell out of London, the U.S. still did not declare war. So it is rather callous to claim we saved them. We came only when we were forced by the axis.
And to be honest, I ... ( 1 week ago by seekortry)
And to be honest, I probably would have traveled to Britain and helped them fight if I were not already in the U.S. military. If I were in the U.S. military, I would push for an exchange spot. That kind of thing really rubs me the wrong way. It makes me want to fight the belligerents.
One never told me ... ( 1 week ago by JohnBello1947)
One never told me many details. But as I know he was in he french army for a short period, and was emprisonned when the Germans occupied France. After that he was sent to poland where he was forced to work.
It was when the war was already over, when he came back, and never told much to my family. So they couldn't give many details either. I really regret I didn't know him.
Desert Storm. The ... ( 1 week ago by JohnBello1947)
Desert Storm. The Operation after Desert Shield. The first Gulf War 90 - 91 if I am right.
I don't know what an avionics specialist exactly does, but I have a lot of respect for everyone who served. Thank you for letting me know.
It is very important to be educated. Here one says: "Education is the remedy for ignorance"
I am very glad to hear that.
