They've certainly forgotten who bailed out their collective arses in 1917, and again in 1938 - 1945 (Lend-Lease before Pearl Harbor).

I think they've forgotten the Marshall Program too.

They'll soon forget those subway bombings as well as the attempted hijacking of 10 jumbo jets.

How exactly did you bail us out? By turning up late for both World Wars, thanks!

I think you will find that "Lend Lease" started in 1941 following Roosevelts re-election in 1940. The final installment of our re-payment of Lend Lease will be made in December this year when UK government will write the US a cheque for $83000000......

But no doubt you will still cast up the United States assistance. Just incase you dont realise how the Wars affected Britain, WW1 Great Britain 1 million KIA. USA 1 hundered and 25 thousand KIA. WW2 Great Britain 4 hundered thousand KIA + 60 thousand civilians killed. WW2 USA 3 hundered thousand KIA......
The majority of us in the UK remember our history, we just refrain from altering it to score cheap points..
