And no, you won't get the point of it by nitpicking my response.

Yeah, it is really lame to have people you've never met in your life judging you because you're an American. Throwing the Iraq war in your face is just a ridiculously absurd thing to do, and extremely insulting.

I think he stated his case well. It's better than the American bashing Americans who just live here for the money and nothing else.

I'd be willing to bet that if things got bad, you'd flee back to your home country instead of defending this one.

Hey I didn't even notice that...

Twice we had to stop you idiots from fighting eachother, and twice our intervention brought a quick end to the war. So I do not take kindly to foreign policy advice from some American bashing European.

Ooooohhhh that sh1t really pisses me off - Americans say that to me all the time. We played just as big a part as the USA in beating the Nazis, in fact, we fought them alone for 2 years while USA refused to help! And it was generations ago!

Two words: Lend Lease

I don't get it...

when in doubt: wiki

Looked it up.

I'm sure that was very important to the war effort, but so what? Lots of other things were important too.

My point is that the USA, Britain, and Russia, all played major roles in the war, and if anyone 'saved' the rest of us it was the Russians. They took more casualties than all the other nations combined, and if they hadn't stuck with it, the Nazis might have been able to invade Britain and the USA.

Plus, it's not like that's the only time one of the western allies has helped another - Bush just clicked his fingers and hundreds of British aircraft, tens of thousands of troops and vehicles, etc jumped to his aid in Iraq.

Without Lend Lease and strategic materials from the US, Britain would have fallen. FDR did everything short of attacking Uboats in the Atlantic while we were still "neutral" to help the UK.

I just don't care for it when people say we did squat until Dec 1941, because it isn't true.

I was on a 3 month trip with a budget. A 200 euro hotel room was not in that budget.. I would've taken a hostel bed but their front desks closed after 10pm.

Many Europeans are crazed supremacists and cannot take any criticism at all about their countries, city, etc.

The most popular Swiss political party is a white supremacist, racist political party which has slogans such as "The Swiss are becoming Negroes" and pictures of brown people feasting upon the blood of white children. I wouldn't be surprised if the guy who replied to you was a member of that extremist party. In his mind, a foreigner insulting his homeland deserves death.

What you feel doesn't matter in the overflowing of Tohen. You're an ass. My x had to take a piss on a building on Ulit pyat ab because there are no public restrooms ouside of St.Pete. She sure as hell didn't complain as I stood infront of the scrawny tree she squated behind. If you choose to have children-please abort them.

Why don't you go be a Shepard?

Well if we're going to apply narrow-minded stereotypes then I'm glad to be an "elitist prick" rather than a fat, conceited, materialistic, flag-waving, gun-toting retard.

(No offence :p)
