Junior Witter: "I Want Recognition in America"

[Mishra100]

If you truly believe that the Brits would've been able to handle Hitler without the help of the US, you must have the IQ of a British Bulldog. It was the US that kept Britain supplied while they hid out on their island and tried to stay away from Germany as much as they could. They were appeasers until Hitler decided that he wanted to take over. Don't you forget that.

BTW, Vietnam wasn't a war, and neither is Iraq. Congress never formally declared war, they're just bellicose engagements. Just like Britain had with India when it lost the biggest chunk of land they ever had.

An engagement vs a declaration doesn't decide what a war is.

Tell ya what, Junior, why don't you bring your ass over here and fight a few times, like your boy Ricky Hatton did? Maybe then you'll be able to get some recognition.

Freakin' A! He needs to come over to the states to prove he can fite.

Huh? Are you trying to say that any time an army fights another that it's a war, regardless of if either country declared one? Wars must be declared or else they are not wars.

Simply not true.

* War is a state of widespread conflict between states, organisations, or relatively large groups of people, which is characterised by the use of violent, physical force between combatants or upon civilians. Other terms for war, which often serve as euphemisms, include armed conflict, hostilities, and police action (see limitations on war below). War is contrasted with peace, which is usually defined as the absence of war.

It was satire, mate. Check my location.

And I love the idea that you can bomb the **** out of another country and it not be a "war".

Yeah I saw that right after I sent the post. Thing is you get so many pricks on here saying exactly that it kinda winds me up. No worries.

I know, that's why I can't help sending it up.

Vietnam wasn`t a war? haha it was war, and guess what, you lost it. Try watching the famous ' hearts and minds' documentary. That will show you what really happened. A word of warning though, the US doesn`t come out of it very well.

Britain grew most of its own food which is why rationing came into force.

The soviets defeated Hitler...they committed about 300 times the resources of the US.

Stop living in a bubble.

Napoleon, Spanish Armada or Hitler couldnt take this little Island. No one ever will.

It wasnt the americans or the russians that helped win the war. it was little ol us when we took the fight to them after they invaded poland. We were there for the long haul, the U.S sat back and waited ........

England was supported by th entire Commonwealth, including a proportionally huge number of young men from Canada
