Is the alliance with Japan a benefit for the United States?
Jayden White
>>Drive them back to Berlin simply by throwing bodies at them until they break
Biggest myth is the idea the Soviets used massive waves of men to fight the heavily outnumbered but superior German troops. In fact both countries fielded similar numbers of divisions during most of the real fighting, and while the Soviets would start to gain a big numerical advantage by 1943, by that time the outcome of the war had already been largely decided. Russian losses had been massive, particularly in 1941, but the soviets never had a noticeable advantage in deployed troops during the deciding struggle of 1941/42. It's worth noting that at the start of operation Barbarossa, the German army outnumbered the Soviets by 4 to 3. It's also worth noting that Soviet battlefield casualties weren't that much higher than the Germans, and the high figure for Soviet military deaths becomes much closer to Germany's once the mass murder of Soviet PoWs is excluded. Much of the rest of the difference in casualties can be attributed to Soviet defeats in the chaos of the initial surprise attack by Germany.

>While relying on Lend-Lease for most of your medicine, shoes, radios, and trucks
The US contributions to the Soviet Union through lend-lease accounted for a measly 1.3% of the USSR war budget
A total of $50.1 billion worth of supplies was shipped, or 17% of the total war expenditures of the U.S. In all, $31.4 billion went to Britain, $11.3 billion to the Soviet Union, $3.2 billion to France, $1.6 billion to China, and the remaining $2.6 billion to the other Allies.
That's chump change, and they provided it for 4.5 years (March 11, 1941 and ended in September 1945). Not exactly the saviors you're claiming they are. For comparison, in a single year (1945) Russia spent 17 times that ($192 billion). If we assume the 11.3 billion was spread out equally, then the US contributed a measly 2.5 billion in 1945. That equates to a total US contribution of 1.3% of the USSR war budget.
Sebastian Garcia
Yes we know. America came in late, fought a bunch of nip manlets, killed German 14 year olds and elderly, dropped a few nukes and take credit for everything. You have a great education system
Hunter King
>nip manlets >basically every country besides the USA that has fought Japan in a proper war has lost
Nathaniel Martinez
>thinking Germany totally won't just invade you via Belgium again That was one of the purpose of the Maginot line, to force Germany to invade through a neutral country and it did work as intended
>Half the population willingly collaborates with the Germans and most of your women sleep with German soldiers Collaboration did happen a lot but what people consider "collaborating" is hugely vague, just submitting to Nazi authorities at gunpoint could get you branded as a collaborator after the liberation
Gabriel Barnes
America did dominate most of the Pacific theater at least.
Hunter Turner

Jose Hill
OP is a retard but you are contradicting yourself by saying that they didn't use their numbers to the advantage.Their losses were massive and they still had numerical superioty where as when German had massive losses they weren't able to recover.
Jaxson Rivera
It's copy pasta mate.
Jordan Miller
Let me guess. Poltard still in the Hitler is muh waifu he dindu nuffin phase. Germans only had spiffy uniforms and above average infantrymen and junior officers with innovative tactics. But they can't into strategy or logistics or *giggles* realpolitik. Germans only instuted a war economy late in the war while America who could afford luxuries, did it much earlier etc.
Mason Reyes
>they still had numerical superioty Bullshit
Zachary Davis
I think that the relationship between Japan and the United States is going well now I don’t want to be said something like that hurt the old wound.
Jackson Martinez
lol

Henry Stewart
Daily remind that in the D-Day when "America saved Europe" there were more Brits/Canadians than Americans but Americans managed to die way more
Carter King
I especially enjoy reading about Rzhev salient and Demyansk pocket, makes me sleep better. German soldiers fought for me.
Adrian Lee
>from the ages of 8 to 70 From 8 to 80 get it right you dumb burger.
yeah russian tankies are right, when they say the anglos helped Hitler and let him to do whatever he wanted in ww2
Hunter Bennett
Not really, as the intend was to continue the Maginot line along Belgium, which they refused.
Michael Moore
>>Spend years and millions of francs constructing a line of fortresses while thinking Germany totally won't just invade you via Belgium again They knew, but Belgium wouldn't let them build the wall there and Belgium was naive enough to place troops on both sides thinking it would trick the Germans into not invading. Most the rest of everything is pretty accurate
Jonathan Smith
>>only need to fight heavily outnumbered and outgunned Japan, whose forces are spread thin all over the Pacific US forces in the Pacific 3 million Japan 8 million We also turned around their main battle fleet including the Yamato and Kongo with some tin cans en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_off_Samar
>>get to a stalemate They were literally strapping bombs to middle school children and ruining them at us, that is how desperate they were. >>Japan immediately surrenders after Soviet Union enters the war Speaking of taking credit for things you didn't do shit in. >>drop nuclear bombs on innocent children and women Zero room to talk Russia, bombing city centers happened on both sides of the war
Chase Jackson
>>>Japan immediately surrenders after Soviet Union enters the war >Speaking of taking credit for things you didn't do shit in. have you heard about manchuria, the japs were still fighting after you dropped the nuclear bombs

Jayden Garcia
The once not in Japan didn't believe that the emperor would actually surrender. We dropped 2 bombs and less than a month later they agreed to an unconditional surrender, coincidence? Hell we pulled a guy out of a cave in the 70's who was still fighting a war that had been over for decades. The Japs were fucking nuts back then
Kevin Allen
dat butthurt

>there were more Brits/Canadians than Americans but Americans managed to die way more It'a almost as if...we had more troops and more troops translates into more casualties. Shock.
Robert Johnson
Wrong. There were 83,115 Brits/Canadians troops present that day, and only 73,000 American troops.
Kayden Moore
probably because omaha and utah had mg bunkers up
Carter Butler
The casualty rate did escalate in late 1944 when the draft age was lowered to 18 and training standards dropped off, but that wouldn't have applied to the time period around the D-Day landings.
Zachary Perez
Russians claim they themselves had nothing to do with those rapes in Germany, it was all churkas and shitskins from Central Asia. :^)
Hunter Reyes
>not being proud of cucking the entire German nation
Sebastian Richardson
Shut the fuck up.
Josiah Mitchell
I hope the comment he was replying to didn't imply that the German army didn't commit rape because the Wehrmacht raped its way across half of the USSR. The only difference is when the Huns were finished they tended not to leave the girls alive.
Leo Watson
Brits and the French especially were totally retarded when it came to preparation for war. In the beginning they had Germany basically surrounded and if Germans tried anything, they'd have to fight a two front war. What do these retards do? Basically order Czechoslovakia to give up Sudetenland without a fight, absolutely ignoring that the terrain there was great for defense against the German tanks and Czechoslovakia spent the interim period building a defense line with bunkers and shit and the rest of Czechoslovakia was basically indefensible without it. Gone, along with all the coal, iron and who knows what other metals in those mountains. Then Hitler attacks Poland. What do the Brits and Frenchies do? Declare war and sit on their dicks instead of attacking the western part of Germany. And when push comes to shove, they wonder how they could've gotten blitzkrieged WHEN THE WRITING WAS ON THE WALL FOR 3 YEARS ALREADY.

So are we evil warmongers or not? Can't please anyone it seems.
Anthony Richardson
>The only difference is when the Huns were finished they tended not to leave the girls alive It's a shame we didn't follow their example.
Juan Murphy
You didn't have more troops though. Hell you didn't even have any of your own landing craft.
Gabriel Sullivan
The Soviets retook Manchuria in like 24 hours, and were like right off the coast of mainland Japan when they surrendered to the US to spare themselves a horrific future as either another Vietnam or a soviet state
Jaxson Brown
No
Lincoln Allen
> 10M Soviet women raped by Axis barbarians > not including forced prostitution > 750k war rape babies in the USSR Yeah most didn't survive but a fraction did.
Camden Turner
>So are we evil warmongers or not? Hes not suggesting that, just that the decisions made in these countries at interim peace and the first years of the war were extremely redundant and naive if anything.
Matthew Adams
Our war was with Japan, not Germany
Mason Taylor
Why? Thanks to that, we can rightfully call Germans our rapebabies now.
