They didn't. They helped us, but bear in mind we had held the Germans back for years before the Americans commited any sizeable forces. The ONLY problem we had was lack of equipment (weaponry, ammunition etc). America provided that equipment.

Actually, if I remember my school history correctly, the Americans kidnapped the scientists who developed the V2 rocket. It's these scientists (who were German, I think) who enabled the Americans to put men in space. Didn't the Russians get there first anyway?

Also we have enough problems of our own before we start telling america how to run theirs.

This america is dumb stuff in annoying me now. Labeling a whole country as stupid is stupid. It like the US calling us NAZI's because of Prince Harry
No, America is not dumb. They (as a country) are arrogant, which is why people get wound up by them.

As I have said in the past, Americans individually are amongst the nicest people I have met.
