Re: GRAPHIC - U.S. Soldiers Shrapnels & Gunshot Wounded in ER
1,500,000 is around how many germans U.S. killed along with thousands of Ities, and thousands of Japs. But your right in a way the red army was much more violent than US. And they were taking land and people, America was there helping its friends. If we were not there all of europe would be speaking German or Russian. That is a fact.

Re: GRAPHIC - U.S. Soldiers Shrapnels & Gunshot Wounded in ER
Simple math refutes your claim. How many books have you read on the subject? Inadvertently, many Western scholars on the subject admit that it was the Soviet Union that won the war. American strategy was simple.Like Britain, the US invested large amounts into heavy bombers. The Germans, contrary to allied propaganda, preferred the precision strikes of the Stuka. The Germans did not simply put their forces in a straight line for allied bombers to hit all in a row. American strategy of relying on heavy bombers to do the overwhelming majority of the work inherently meant that large numbers of civilians were killed in these raids. Far more than would have been killed in a more precise raid. There was a reason for this. Not only to take out the Germans, but also to kill large numbers of civilians that did not view the Germans as savage as they did the Americans. The overwhelming majority of American airmen that were shot down over Europe during ww2 and came into contact with European civilians were not taken care of and nursed and fed and hidden from German patrols and turned over to Allied ones, the majority were brutally beaten and lynched by angry people who found themselves the primary target of American bombs. Not the Germans. Many German commanders in France were executed for not protecting American airman. |
