Seriously?  

then what was he talking about?

(Allied nations during the Cold War)  The term "allies" itself, in no way, directly reflects to the Allied nations of WWII.  However, as with many things, WWII is what is hearkened to first.

The other allies, eh?

Ah, my young Australian friend.  Throughout the relatively brief history of the United States, there have been many predictions of imminent failure.  So, far, the closest call was the Civil War, which was self inflicted.
 

I'm little lost here.

I'm a little lost here. 

So you believe the Bolsheviks were somehow better than the southern United States?

And self inflicted, as in civil war, as in war against ourselves.

No. The difference is in Russia bad guys won.

And self inflicted, as in civil war, as in war against ourselves.

Actually, I was using the difference in the treatment of the vanquished at the hands of the victors to differentiate between the two.

But other than that, they are exactly the same, and still are.

The US and USSR were ideological rivals.  They were both large, militarily strong and used weaker nations as pawns in their global struggle.  Not much else. It is an inaccurate oversimplification to say that the US and USSR were the same. 

I'm consciously trying to avoid politics.  This forum isn't the place for it.

Anyone else find the fact that the russians have panzers really irritating?

Great video, and I cant get the song out of my head.
