Looks like an article drummed up to try to get people to hate America. We defeated Germany as quickly as we could, plus there was always a “Germany first” policy even though it was the Japanese who attacked us at Pearl Harbor.

And they pointed out that the Russians were sacrificing millions, while the Western allies "stood on the sidelines".

Well for one thing, millions of Russians died strictly out of Stalin's incompetence. Ultimately, the superior numbers of Russian soldiers were eat the Germans, "as a bunch of ants eat an elephant", as one German general put it. But with more competent leadership, there didn't need to be so many deaths on the Soviet side. Heck, they lost almost 100,000 in the Battle of Berlin, alone, when it was a foregone conclusion.
