You used the fact that they are from a particular country to justify them being worse than Australians. Justification.
Saying something is "better" then something else isn't justifying discrimination. PC is better then Mac. That doesn't justify destroying all the Macs.
Racism isn't necessarily the action. It can be the speech saying something is worse. I don't have to "destroy all" black people to be a racist, do I? :)
I said "try" :P

[How long do you think Britain would have lasted without foreign allies? And why bring up Stalingraf? The British didn't help in that fight either.

By the way, thanks for the British aid in the Pacific.

And let's not forget Montgomery. "Let's go through Belgium and give the Germans time to regroup."
Without the Americans? We would have easily done it. I was referring to the Allied forces of Europe & Commonwealth. Stalingrad was probably the most influential battle of the war... America didn't save anybody's asses there. If anybody saved anybody's ass: Britain saved Britain & The Russians saved everybody.

America basically saw that the Japanese were up for a fight, got taken by surprise, and joined in the last push.

You're welcome. You surely can't expect us to defend both our own territories AND the US ones? Oh wait... you did.

And the US policy of "this war's been going on for 2 years now... oh wait, the Japanese attacked! Surprise!"

Yes, yes, you stopped the Germans from taking you tiny little island. Lucky for you you didn't have any land in continental Europe, or they could have done some serious damage to you.
Thank you, its nice to recieve a compliment implying our geographical superiority as well as our international superiority :P
King Louis XIV would be jealous of your natural borders... that is IF you controlled all of Ireland like you used to... or keep Scotland for that matter.
Well, Im afraid thats one of the downsides of having the largest empire the world has ever seen, its gotta go some how. I take it you understand that, what with your American Empire an- oh no wait.... :P

Also, I find it funny that we have drifted on to WW2, makes sense i suppose as its one of the only wars that America has bragging rights over :P

It was implied. To an American that is perfectly obvious.

My point exactly. Britian is like the wise old mentor to the young, hot headed apprentice (America :P )

And the US policy of "this war's been going on for 2 years now... oh wait, the Japanese attacked! Surprise!"
Yet the US staged a full army in the Pacific and Europe.

And it's that "America wasn't necassary" pompous attitude that made the American soldiers hate the Brits.

The last push? So Africa, Italy, D-Day, and the Buldge are all the last push

Excuse us for not wanting to get involved in a war in Europe. Today people say America gets too involved, yet in WW2, you critize us for NOT getting involved earlier?
