NUKE: Gee well you have a valid point there. You think the russians would have initiated another war in order to conquer europe if the U.S. bases wouldn't have been there?

Or did it maybe just boost the arms race and further increase the risk of a nuclear conflict on european soil, especially after SU responded by an attempt to install icbms to cuba?

Europe would have been better off without American help. The Soviets would have "rebuilt" everything and everyone would have been much happier.

Im saying that we should have left Europe after WWII and let Russia "rebuild" it. Then you would be happy.

By the way, if US bases had not been there, Russia wouldn't have needed to start any war...they would just take what they wanted.

The US saved you. Be thankfull.

The world is pretty lucky to have a superpower like the US around....that's all I can say. The world is lucky that America is the superpower, and not some other country.


I used to think like that. Now, after witnessing several low-iq posts by people who think they can act condescending just because they happen to live somewhere, I start to question myself. I'm getting more and more worried about your nuclear arsenal and the growing generation who'se supposed to be responsible for them. :rolleyes:

I just have to keep in mind you don't represent the whole of your nation. U.S. is afterall a large country that shouldn't be judged by a bunch of bad apples.

Siaf is correct Stalin was a puppy dog and would never hvae dreamed of using his massive army in the middle of the continent to invade and subjegate the rest of europe. Its those evil americans who are responsible for their paranoid stance towards papa stalin. Bad USA - how dare they rebuild and unify a post war western europe, shame on them.

Nice American logics: we have to pay everything to you, and we have to forgive Iraqi debts, because they can't pay, because some big guy decided it's a good idea to invade and mess up the whole Iraqi economics?... How about "forgiving" all Russian debts? You have won the Cold war, didn't you?




hahem ... not quite true :)

I would bet that my IQ is higher than yours, but that doesn't discount the fact that the US rebuild Europe.

This thread is turning amusing.  I would encourage eveyone to put in their information below their avator at least the country they live in.  I am proud to have my county showing in mine.

Actually I think the Us made a major mistake in helping Iraq by going in and taking out Suddam --We shoulda just told him we dont care if you invade Europe :)

Yeah, and he doesn't seem concerned about China, Russia, or North Korea . They are the good guys, nothing to worry about there.

LOL, now that is a good one.  He certainly could have taken France easy enough.  Probably most of the Scandinavian countries too for that matter.

News flash Grunherz you can't say a word about Saddams alledged WMD before they're found. So, no, I'm not even distantly worried about things that probably weren't there nor were even targeted at me in any way even if they did exist.

Russias economy was shattered after WW2, and US had a major part to the whole country surviving Hitler's assault in the first place. They were struggling to survive which is hardly a position to start wageing another war.

As what goes with your idea of U.S. saving the world with the marshall plan, as in the recent article posted in another thread, finland is a good example of surviving without a dime of marshall money - and paying the war retributions in full while doing so.

What makes you think way larger countries couldn't pull off the same?

This is a good point.

Aren't you tired of somebody always telling you that Europe was "saved from communism" by their assistance?... If there was no USSR - Americans had to invent it. It was a good reason for blackmailing Europe for almost 50 years.

Get a grip.


Not really....it's the Democrats in Congress and the Presidential Candidates who make hay with this issue....as far as most in the US see it, we would gladly finish the job for free.

Don't forget, we spend billions here every year from saving species of mold to testing the consistency of ketchup.....we've been wasting money for years in this country...might as well do something that matters for a change.

As to having the permission of spineless backstabbing nations around the world....don't really need it, now do we.

BTW....where might you be from, or are you ashamed to let us all know.
