Then, we ask america for a hand and they refuse. So, several years in, we had allies, the french had fucked off and Hitler was just as evil. Japan bombs pearl harbour for no reason. What happens. America beg for our help. And we say yes. Japan become feared everywhere for their evil ways and in the end, after the war has ended, after most of the fighting had stopped, someone says "let's drop an A bomb on them!" Hiroshima becomes the worst place to be...ever. Children vapourized, a tornado of fire sucking people in as the cling on for dear life. Horrible stuff but it did have to be done. My point is, all this crap americans give us about "Oh we saved your arse in world war 2," is utter shite. We were winning and would have done. We had russia, some of australia, plenty of countries. America only aided in our winning when they needed help.
Ummmmmmm no..your wrong

The war was in full swing..indeed.
America did not ask for help..in such a sense as you describe
they however became involved when one of thier own was bombed..
and to be honest..the majority of the world involved..needed Americas help to win the war.

Do not take away Americas involvement in helping secure the end of the world wars..many good men fought and died from all over and they deserve to be remembered with the utmost respect. and not have thier memories dragged through some bitter debate on a horror forum many years later.
