A war where American supremacists act like they did all the work. I'm not pro-german, nor am I saying they should have won, but it pisses me off when T.V. shows and documentaries give completely biased information towards U.S. troops. The American documentaries tend to talk about brave heroic actions and how American's broke through by themselves and without us, we would never have won the war. Here's a few reasons why the U.S. did nothing and had a complete advantage coming into the war in the first place.
1. They're out of bomber range. Every other country in Europe was heavily bombed heavily.
2. The German's had basically lost the war in the first place in early 1944 to Russia. After losing The Battle of Stalingrad and Leningrad and battles in the Caucasian areas, Russia was advancing many many miles a day.
3. Germany was drained of resources. It was running extremely low and the country, while stretched thin on its own fault, had EXTREMELY limited ammo, fuel, and manpower. 50% of troops in the western front against the U.S. and Britain were 35 year old + reserve troops and there were virtually no crack special forces units like the S.S.

World War II U.S. supremacists are weird.

A War that started beacuse Nazi Germany, under Hitler, Invaded Poland in 1939. Was then declared war on by France and UK. Germany Invaded France and many other countries in 1940and 41, knocking them all out except for a few free forces. They used a stargey called blitzkrieg Also, Italy joined Germany in 1940 stating the Axis allience. Germans then Invaded the Soviet Union in 1941, bringing them onto the allied side (UK, Free French). Then Japan declareed war on USA and UK after the attack on Pearl Harbor followed by the Axis declaring war on the US. The war went poorly in 1941-spring of 1942. But, then the battles of El Alaimen, Stalingrad, Midway, and Gudalcanal (all happening in Summer of 1942-Winter of 1943) pushed the war in the Allies favor. In the Summer of 1943, the Battle of Kursk destroyed any cahnce of German victory on the Eastern Front, and in 1944, the D-Day landings made Germany have to fight a two front war. Mean while, the US kept on driving back the Japenease to Japan, shattering there navy at battles like Battle of the Phillipine Sea and Lyete Gulf. In December of 1944, Germany lunched a last ditch effort to defeat the UK-USA allience forces, but failed, making defeat unavoidable to Germany. Germany collapsed 5 moubths later on May 8th, with Hitler commiting suicide a few days earlier. Japan fell 3 mounths later, with a A-bomb being dropped on them because of the bloodshed a invasion of Japan would have. Many attrocities where commited by Germany during the war aginst the Jews and many other religions, nationinalities, and in general life stlye choices, which was calle the holacost Japan did similar, treating prisioners with extreme brutality and civilians alike. It is one of the most widly known wars and most highly used in movies, games etc..
Many inventions came out of World War II, like the Jet engine, Radar, jeeps, and nuclear technolgy.

A great world war, that will happen during the last days of Earth.... it will probably last 7 years for that is the time that the bible predicted the last days to go on, a 7 year tribulation...

It was the most widespread war in history, with more than 100 million military personnel mobilised. In a state of "total war," the major participants placed their entire economic, industrial, and scientific capabilities at the service of the war effort, erasing the distinction between civilian and military resources. Marked by significant action against civilians, including the Holocaust , it was the deadliest conflict in history.
The war is generally accepted to have begun on 1 September 1939, with the invasion of Poland by Nazi Germany and subsequent declarations of war on Germany by France and most of the countries of the British Empire and Commonwealth. China and Japan were already at war by this date, whereas other countries that were not initially involved joined the war later in response to events such as the German invasion of the Soviet Union and the Japanese attacks on the U.S. Pacific Fleet at Pearl Harbor and on British overseas colonies, which triggered declarations of war on Japan by the United States, the British Commonwealth.
The war ended with the total victory of the Allies over Germany and Japan in 1945. World War II left the political alignment and social structure of the world significantly changed.
A quick personal thanks to those allies (excluding the french - complete wankers) who stood by britain while she faced the full conflict , for if britain had given up, germany (and the axis) would have likely won the war.
Victory at all costs, victory in spite of all terror, victory however long and hard the road may be; for without victory there is no survival.
-Winston Churchill during world war 2
America should have minded her own business and stayed out of the World War (world war 1). If you hadn't entered the war the Allies would have made peace with Germany in the Spring of 1917. Had we made peace then there would have been no collapse in Russia followed by Communism, no breakdown in Italy followed by Fascism, and Germany would not have signed the Versailles Treaty, which has enthroned Nazism in Germany. If America had stayed out of the war, all these 'isms' wouldn't today be sweeping the continent of Europe and breaking down parliamentary government β and if England had made peace early in 1917, it would have saved over one million British, French, American, and other lives.

world war 3 will happen because of the evergrowing situation in the middle east
israel at this moment in time ( late july 2006) is attacking lebanon.
the USA, of course have become involved and wanted israel to attack lebanon to spark this war.
they want to get iran and syria involved as you will probably constantly hear them mentioning them in this conflict.
when iran and syria get involved,russia and china will back them. korea will also get involved.nuclear attacks will happen and millions,maybe even a billion will die.
the USA is the big bully in all of this. they sit back and watch as irael do whatever they like. they have killed hudnreds in lebanon.
has the USA said anything?
NO
they even rejected a cease fire as they say its a false promise
but we all know, that the usa could stop israel attacking lebanon and perhaps stop this war from escalating if they told israel to stop killing sulliviliians
but as we all know the usa goverment want to attack iran for the oil
coz really they are fat hungry greedy bastards,with the stench of iraqi's blood on thier hands
i beg all american citizens to get bush out of power!
World War III has begun, in this new millenium.millions were slaughtered
dont deny this people
WW3 is starting so get into your bomb shelters!
