i just about died laughing when i found it. just the SHEER RAW EMOTION!

[Dr. Daedalus]

Wow, I did not think that what I said would cause such a huge debate. I never said that America alone won WWII. I love the British. Winston Churchill is one of my favorite historical leaders. So is de Gaulle from France. Every Allied nation played a huge role in saving the world from Hitler. However, if America had not entered the war Hitler would have conquered Britain and Russia. (Then he would have come for the U.S. and the rest of North America). Also because the U.S. formed NATO and resisted Communist aggression most of us have the freedom today to use the Internet to talk about the past.

besides, the american Nukes were practically useless in terms of warfare. the war was largely over, and the americans just wanted to see the fruits of the extremely expensive Manhattan project. so, they decided to nuke.

Actually they saved at least a million American lives and several million Japanese lives (if we had invaded that many people would have died).

P. S. I love the "angry Hitler" videos on Youtube.

America didn't enter the War until 1942. They didn't even begin fighting Germany until Nov 1942. By then Hitler had given up on trying to invade Britian (Due to failure to win Battle of Britian). The tide of the Battle of the Atlantic was also changing, giving Britian more supplies. American help was only due to the Tizard Mission (Trading British scientific breakthroughs for american aid) and thought it did help, German bombing of Britian to a large extent was over and Britian was no-where near to invasion that it was previously.

In Russia, Operation Barbarossa had failed to crush the Soviets and the German invasion had lead to a stalemate. America played no part in the Eastern Front (Except from providing supplies)

By the time America entered, the tide was already turning on Hitler. American intervention helped push Germany over the edge and help end the war alot sooner.

On the above bolded, among the supplies they sent were trucks and half tracks, Which the Russians put to EXTREMLY effective use.

Ever heard of a Katyusha? Stalin's Organ? The massive EPIC WIN that is one of the worlds first (if not THE) multiple rocket launching system? That wouldn't have had nearly the effect it had if not for American supplies.

Financing the war made it easier an all sides for the allies.Would the Allies have beaten Germany if the US wasn't involved with aid so much?

Fair enough, But that was my main point this whole time. America provided the money, Russia provided the Man power and Britian (And the commonwealth) provided the know-how on how to best deal with the German forces.

I sujest that we Bring to an end this WW2 dissusion. It could lead to alot of angry remarks and also has nothing to do with s09119's story.

[Aewon]

Probably. Even before the Battle for Kursk, the battle that massively turned the tide in the Russians' favour, the Russian war industry surpassed that of the Germans. And, it's not just the fighters and the tanks. The Russian soldiers were almost half as fanatical as the Japanese soldiers, and they were much better trained than the defeated masses of 1941.

I disagree. We've cultivated some nice discussion without getting into large arguments that get personal, like much of the SGU discussion. Keeping the thread alive with discussion is a good thing IMO.

Ditto. I was actually quite enjoying this discussion.

watch now it ends anyway

I look at civil forum discussions in the same way I look at relationships. Eventually we'll just end up hating eachother.

[SG-18]

that youtube video was pretty damn funny. There are so many of the angry hitler videos out there, anyone know which on was first, after the movie it was in obviously?

as for the civil discussions vs. SGU episodes.

I will jsut say I am immensly enjoying reading this thread with all the WWII stuff being talked about. I also really liked the cliffhanger in justice.

Spoiler:

I never thought Rush would be the guy to hide the gun, and now hes stranded, but I bet in the season finale he shows up with that ship and some alien buddies

[s09119]

Ummm... so, bear with me:

I would like to apologize for blatantly ignoring this thread for quite a while now. Finals are making me want to drill a hole in my head and I just neglected bothering to say I'd be busy. It's not fair to those who have been faithful readers for (how long now?) a while, and I, again, apologize.

That said, I've decided that I will at least fill in the episode synopsi for the remainder of Season 16, so that you will all know what was planned to happen... even if it takes me a heck of a long time to find enough time to actually get stuff back on track in terms of writing out the episodes.

Again, sorry for the treatment, and I hope that with the new year, this fanfic will get going once more.
