I know what the Battle of Britain was and understand that yes you beat the Luftwaffe back, you in now way destoryed them.
The only reason Hitler invaded Russia was because he didn't control the skies over England. That was in 1940, the war last for another 5 years.
Whose to say that if the US didn't get involved that Hitler wouldn't have again tried to Invade England?
Operation SeaLion was Hitlers first plan to invade.
You need to stop training with American Rubbish Huh, well my dickhead friend Royal Marines and USMC fight alongside one another in Afganistan and
when we were in Iraq, I would take a bullet for one of my brothers in arms any time and I would also take one for a Royal Marine because we have so
much respect for one another.
"Who's to say?" is the weakest argument possible. It doesn't matter what could have happened, because it didn't. It also couldn't have happened,
because the USSR defeated the Germans, and pushed them back into Germany. At this point, I fail to see how any invasion of anywhere would have been
possible, since they had to use everything they still had, alongside children and old people to attempt to fight off the Soviets.
In other words, you didn't "save" anyone.
Yes, we need to suspend all diplomatic relations, we need to scrap all military treaties, and we need to withdraw from any conflict where we are in
support of the US. Once that's done, you can have your Tridents back.
