I have the deepest respect for those who fought to liberate Europe of National Socialism whatever country they came from.
No one would dare to say the American sacrifice was not the key to victory in the West. Without it, Britain would have been unable to breach the Atlantic Wall alone. Somehow, the British, Commonwealth and Free Forces endured the nightmare until, by 1942, they finally began to wrest the initiative from the foe, and the following year saw offensives on all fronts. I think that you forget that sometimes. And one should not neglect the Soviet involvement in the war.
You tend to see yourself as the world's savior. NATO is not only the U.S. - what with all the other nations, they are insignificant? In Europe we have the tradition that we can openly criticize each other and I know that you as Americans can have problems receiving criticism from us in Europe. Learn to live with it.
Regarding debt and respect to the U.S..
Yes, American men and women have spilled blood for Europe, Do we owe you something? YES! Will we pay you back? YES!
We have stood shoulder to shoulder with you since 9 / 11. Danish men and women have fought and died and still do to this day together with your soldiers. I have sent my own son off twice and GHR here on our forum is another of these young people who is now paying back the debt. Respect goes both ways - remember that.
BTW. The Soviet Union actually liberated a part of Denmark and it was not until mid 1946 that they left.
