Did You Ever Study History?

Mark Eby — 9/4/2004 2:24:16 AM (archived)

The US is always the bulk of the forces that gets the job done in major wars since the start of the last century (with the biggest consistant outside help from Britain). We were most of the troups that won GW1, pushed back the N. Koreans, and most of the forces that won two world wars. We were also the major force through air power in stopping the fighting in Yugoslavia although I'm not sure we had the most troups. The others are there and have always been more as a show of support and in the aggregate they help. France was with us in GW1 and so was Germany yet they sent very little. This is yet another forget the context of history attack by you on Bush.

Regards,
Mark
