If you find my arguments absurd, childish, boring, unfounded or farfetched why waste time in this thread? Start a thread praising Churchill, Dowding, Mountbatten, Ritchie, Motgomery, Auchinleck, Wavell and all the great British leaders of WW II that you revere. Just remember that in spite of 5 million Indians and a greater number of Brits, Canadians, Australians, New Zelanders, South Africans, Free French, Poles, etc, The third largest industry in the world and 31 billion dollars in aid they could not kick Germany out of Africa nor Japan out of Burma without American troops, pilots, etc, and while Germany was fighting the Soviets and Japan the Chinese and Americans.
