This is ridiculous. And Bob Geldof, what?

But I don't think most Americans realize how much Churchill damaged the U.S. and scammed FDR. And revived the USSR.

They’d all be speaking German if it wasn’t for Churchill.

Without England for an airbase, we would not have dislodged Hitler.

This is what Enoch Powell tried to warn Brits about. But they didn’t listen.

You think we needed them, more than they needed us?

This part:
“But I don’t think most Americans realize how much Churchill damaged the U.S. and scammed FDR. And revived the USSR. “

How so? FDR wanted to be in the fight the day Germany attacked Poland, but there was no way politically he could do it.

No, they definitely needed us, but we would had no way to do D-Day or bomb German factories if England had fallen.

Yes, I didn’t say FDR wasn’t gullible. You don’t don’t fold a royal flush when your opponent has a four high.

Yeah?
It was like taking candy from a baby?
And FDR was naive and totally clueless?
A country bumpkin who didn’t have a clue what was going on?

So why don't you tell us how Churchill damaged the US then?
Especially since the US was in a severe recession before entering the war, but then mobilized industry for the war effort and came out of the war in an economic boom.

Well, even a cursory examination of history shows Bob Geldoff is far more important to British history than Winston Churchill. I’m sure VDH would quickly conform this also. /s

I’m more interested in how you think Churchill helped revive the USSR? Do you contend he was a major pusher of lend lease? Or something like that?

Otherwise, the liberals who were demonizing him that fomented this thread complained that he tried to start WWIII over Soviet Russia.

It is widely known that FDR’s advisers were the Soviet plants who steered FDR into going easy on Russia and holding Patton back from ending the whole thing right then and there.

If nothing else, FDR should have been charged as a traitor for Churchill swindling him into not requiring the USSR to declare war on Japan immediately, if they wanted one dime of our help. It's a crime we didn't require this. (We reuired the USSR to declare war on Japan three moths after VE Day)

Remember, Japan was deathly afraid of Russia after the Battle of Khalkhin Gal. Japan cancelled their planned invasion of Siberia.

We see that Japan had no fear of the U.S., as evidenced by their attack on Pearl Harbor. But they refused to declare war on Russia, after Germany. In fact, that results of that battle were the cause of Pearl Harbor, because the leaders who wanted to take Siberia fell out of favor, and the leaders who wanted to invade the U.S. became more influential. Even though Japan was obligated, by their alliance with Germany, to go to war with the USSR, they instead signed the Soviet–Japanese Neutrality Pact. That shows you the only country Japan really feared.

How many Americans (and others) lost their lives because of FDR kowtowing to Churchill?

**Remember, Japan surrendered because of how the Russians sliced threw their armies in Manchuria, not because the U.S. had bombed them into rubble. Japan wanted to pick their occupiers, and history showed they made the right decision.

If FDR an Churchill required the USSR to go to war with Japan immediately, how much sooner would the war in the Pacific have ended?

The USSR was desperate. The U.K. was desperate. Yet the agreements made by FDR were as if the U.S. was the desperate country.
