They certainly didn't win it on their own but if they weren't involved Holland would probably be still be run by the Germans and I'm sure you wouldn't be too happy about that. Daryl

Yes the allies including the Americans contributed to the victory but 93% of all German casualties were sustained on the Russian front. That was decisive.

The only difference between current wars and previous wars is the amount of video taken by almost everyone involved. If I was a Commander over there the first thing I would do would be to make it a very serious offence for any of my men to be caught owning or using any sort of camera, posting a video on the net would be treason with very serious punishment. The war in Afghanistan is not being fought against the Taliban, its being fought against public opinion in the US and around the world so winning is near on impossible. Daryl

The US has a population of 300 odd million? Sheer populatrion size = military output. They have the cutting edge of weapons not only of precise targetting, but mass destruction. They dont parade their future-generation weapons every May-day, like the Russians,..they do not need to. But on a comparitive front, the Russians have multi-nuclear warheads residing in Typhoon class subs,..just like the yanks. Itis a page of mutually assured destruction that neither side wants to open.
