Sorry, we defeated Japan mostly on our own.==

Only their fleet and garrisons of few tropical islands. Even Ivo Jima was a huge problem for US. Nothing to say about Japanese Islands. Russians leaned history NOT by Hollywood so we know more than you.

And Soviet Union fought and destroyed more 1 mln Japanese army. Imagine 1000 Ivo Jimas in one package. How US military could handle it.

The Nazis were still deep in Russia when we landed in France. ===

Absolutely wrong. On June 6, 1944 Soviet armies were deep in POLAND and Romania and on a steps of Eastern Prussia. You really need to learn history NOT by Hollywood movies.

Then let’s not forget Lend-Lease, without us, the Brits, and the Canadians, the Red Army would have been barefoot and starving. ==

Lend-Lease Soviet Union repaid after war. It was a credit not allowance for free. US had made money on Lend-Lease.

If you buy a cloth or food then do you feel grateful to your seller? I guess not. Same in this case.

“Absolutely wrong. On June 6, 1944 Soviet armies were deep in POLAND and Romania and on a steps of Eastern Prussia. You really need to learn history NOT by Hollywood movies.”

Wrong. The Nazis held the Baltic States and Byelorussia on 6/22/1944 when Operation Bagration was launched. Like I said deep in the Soviet Union. Oh yeah, and why does every Europuke get on a rant about Hollywood? Because your movies suck.

“US had made money on Lend-Lease.”

This is a vile lie. Churchill called Lend-Lease one of the most selfless acts in history.
