I am absolutely certain that if these sorts of attacks and generalizations were being made about any other group of people - race/ethnicity, nationality, religion, etc. - they would not be tolerated.  

Well, not entirely. My internet forum studies suggest that Yank-baiting and Muslim-baiting are both permitted and even applauded (note that the latter slipped in with the pointless detour to suggest that young women travellers are likely to get attacked in the Middle East, even though in most parts they are probably safer than in the EU), while Jew-baiting and gay-baiting are absolutely off limits.

I still haven't worked out how this thread ended up here.

americans abroad are funny and sometimes interesting, i would not generalize, the problem for me is when talking about politics with them, it's not an issue of leftists vs republicans, but the fact most of the yanks fully support unconditionally the neo colonialist wars america is waging in north africa and middle east, not to mention the bombing of serbia in 1999, the awful creation of Kosovo, Taiwan, and all the  "color revolutions" in eastern europe.

and being answered that this is ok because they're "mickey mouse" countries can only make my blood boil.

the world would be a much better place WITHOUT america's "humanitarian interventions" (hahaha!), and as a matter of fact the smartest people i've met so far are the russians, hope one day they take over all of europe and liberate us for real from being a NATO colony.


BS!  simply BS!!  your way of living, existing, even breathing the very air, would be the first to be abolished!  if it wasnt for the Americans and British, saving your ass and parents asses during two wars, you would still be itching in your daddys pants,
steady on pal!  you sound like a Saddam or Bin-Laden supporter. Sounds as if youre in the wrong profession.

Pitty the Russiand who actually live there dont agree with you, then again its easier for a sofa-expert to have an opinion, isnt it.

The * were defeated by the soviets, not the usa. usa only came to fight when the germans were already loosing the whole thing... I'm not blaming them tho, who would want to be involved in all that at it's peak?

Which just goes to show that we are all taught our own versions of history.

Thank God we never ended up with Hitler's vision of a united, German-led Europe!

there are plenty of decent books on WWII but will you ever read them ?

and how a german led europe would so much worse than the EU puppet government
in brussels and the NATO occupation since 1945 ?

i mean i'm not a nazi but what's the difference between yanks bombing the whole
north africa and germany invading poland ?

it's not a problem of being teached history by the victors or by the losers, but
the reality that nowadays america is animperialist warmongering colonial power,
no matter if they elect bush or obama or whoever is next on the list.

exactly, and the german banks are already waiting to eat greece's corpse or being repaid
with a few aegean islands, the privatization of the whole greek economy, greek pensions,
and much more, hopefully greece will declare default, leave the EU, and do like argentina.

So what do you think German and USSR did between 1941-1944? Played chess and drank vodka?
The real turning point in defeating germany was Stalingrad in 1943, not what happened after d-day, even if people from US seem to think that way very often. I really suggest to read some books written by others than US writers. Or even Wikipedia.

(Okay, this is getting seriously off-topic :))

Nah, theres ofcourse no differance at all between the Nazi ideology of exterminating just about everybody and the US bombing some sort of a dictator/tyran Libya, no differance at all ???????????????

Out of curiosity,  are you a product out of the 60-era?  you know "peace brother, flowers in your hair" and all that bollocks?

Just, most of us have moved on to shall we say more realistic thinking.

Congratulations, you got the joke (Blacksheep seems a little slow).

As for versions of history, I suspect that British, Russian, French and American versions of WWII history are very different indeed in emphasis, if not on dates and events. And that's just the victors' versions :)

You'll soon see that they're moving there on from F4 and F5 to V1 and V2. Sales are expected to rocket!

try to keep attacking of other members out of the conversation.
