there I said it. The Russians defeated Hitler and the US belatedly joined the British Empire in saving western Europe from the Russians and the French and West Germans weren't worth the blood of one American.

5. ONLY reason US needed dday - to enter Berlin as "heroes"

dday was a useless waste of 4000 human lives just because Washington wanted to enter Berlin ON Time together with Heroic and Courageous Russian Army, in order to use all the military achievements and sacrifices by Soviet Army for marking "greatamerica" as the "winner".
After the war and still today, US keeps calling itself as "winning over Germany" !!??? Where was US when Soviet Army singlehandedly had to turn the war around and push the German army back to where it came from ??? Where was US when German Nazi death camps in Poland were exterminating thousands of jews every single day ??? ANSWER is simple:
It was the USA who had the plan of attacking Soviet Union in order to annihilate the "communist regime" and its founders and leaders, many of whom were obviously Jews. USA was supporting Germany all the years since the end of WWI, before WWII and during WWII. Hundreds of American corporations were assisting Germany and Hitler to turn Germany into a war machine. They continued their collaboration and all the efforts during the war. US is behind all the crimes against humanity and one day it will have to pay the price.
6. "One more funeral,one less witness to the world's worst war"

What do you want? People live forever? Everyone will die someday, this is life.

People should write their memories, if they want, or make a movie and tell what happened. Some Holocaust survivors did.

"E o mundo silenciou...", by Ben Abraham: the best book I know written by an Holocaust survivor. Unfortunately, he did not write in English, so very few people read this book.
