WW2 was won because of all 3 parties.
Britian helped by keeping the Altantic safe so supplies can get across (Which a good amount went to Russia). We also took on the Germans in North Africa, which was a big help as it opened up Italy to invasion and also helped us find the best way to fight the far better tanks.
Russia helped by simply puting on soo much pressure onto the Germans. They pushed the german economy to breaking point (many historians belive that if Germany's economy was better prepaired, they could have won the war.)
Americans helped because they provided the money and supplies needed to fight such a war. Their extra troops also helped.
I agree with you on the cold war thing, but the problem is that the communism in Russia and china isnt true communisnm. Marxist Communism was probibly one of the most democratic forms of governemnt. But they only way to implement it was through force, which creates a paradox. you overthrow the Bourgeoisie only to become it.
