You dismiss the almost 20 million deaths that the Soviet Union sustained at the hands of the Nazis.

When did I do that?
All I said was that Amercia was the pivotal force of WWII.

How many American were killed in WW2? Less than 100,000 - tragic as that is. You must admit that the Soviet Union carried the biggest sacrifices in WW2.

They also made the biggest mistakes...allying with the Nazis for example.
They were ALLIES with a nation whose main goal was to wipe out all communists...what the hell did they
THINK was going to happen? heh heh

Why didnt the US drop a nuclear device on Berlin instead of Hiroshima or Nagasaki?

Germany was so weak that conventional forces were sufficient to bring them to heel. I explained that already.

Why did the Japanes surrender to the SOviet Union (an american ally in WW2) and this surrender was not acceptable to the americans.
|
We accepted that they surrendered to the Soviets. Please post your evidence to the contrary.
Surrendering to the Soviets was insufficient. We required them to surrender to us.

Why did the USA then proceed with the nuclear attacks on civilian targets inspite of Japans surrender to the Soviet Union?
|
They were not civilian targets. Would you like me to post the wikipedia evidence again?

Historical accuracy is not one of the strong points of most of the citizens of the USA

If so, you seem to have at least one thing in common with us.

Have you proven to the world that Sadam fueled te airplanes that crached into the twin towers?

It is irrelevant at this point. The threat is removed. We got our way.

Why did the US fund Osama bin Laden AND SAdam Hussein for over 20 years.?
|
Because the faction that was in control during that time was short sighted and stupid. But they have been replaced by a better one.

The reason why we got into Iraq is simple. We thought they had WMD. Every major intelligence agency in the world thought Saddam had WMD. And so we invaded them in pursuit of those weapons. But they weren't there. We toppled their leader, their government, and made their country more unstable.

The present-day Iraq is still preferable to a Saddam-controlled Iraq.
