Britain In Full Blown Economic Panic
- Thread starter ByLoSellHi
- Start date
For the record, I'm from England, where we have a Nanny state, a Police state, and an incompetant government.
And as you may know, the English have been fighting the French since... well since a few hundred centuries before Modern America existed.
(cheap gag, apologies).
But, when I'm not having to walk sideways through door because of my oh so bad teeth, or drinking Tea and playing Cricket, I can accept the flaws of my country, its ihabitants, politics, and behaviour in international affairs (like the appauling lack of action in Darfur).
(we do have our good bits as well, you know).
Difference being I am not
a) Ignorant of my countries mistakes
b) narcisstic about it

Nails It!!!
this is a funny quote. which countries could usa kick the shit out of? could you please name them (the important ones)?
or maybe you can name a single international war in the past 100 years that usa clearly won on their own?
usa is scared shit for their economic well being - they are not fighters since they became a "superpower".
just look what russia was doing recently... and that was under "hawkish" republican cabinet!

US singlehandedly beat Japan in the Pacific 1942-1945 all while helping the Russians and British beat the Germans

The chi-knee would disagree.
i was waiting
i give you japan - but let's face it US won only after using A-Bomb on civilians - you can't do this today!
with respect to europe - i was intentionally talking about singlehandedly because i did not want to argue about who achieved what in WW2.
but it is a well know fact that US actively helped europe only after the destiny of german fate was obvious (after kursk) - and helped to save much of the europe from soviets...
