Misinterpreting the past is the job of historians, wanker. They have no other in the sophisticated west.

So you just proved to yourself that you weren't there, followed up with excuses why you weren't there.
Well done BL!

Haven't we always known he's full of sh*t?![]()
Neither were you - and it shows.
Especially American ones.
The fact will always remain - unless you change your tune - that you're wrong and have spent too many years reading too many books by American historians.
Now, just show some humilty in your defeat and we shall leave it there.
All your purple font proved me absolutely correct! The rest of it is brit excuses as to why they stayed out of the Pacific.
Where's your proof that Britain would not have gone on to win WWII were it not America joining the conflict?
Many historians are of the belief that Britain would still have gone on to win the war without the US joining the conflict.
You and your mates, however, believe that America "saves British butts." I just want to see some good reasoning behind your dubious logic rather than just you claiming it. It's no good you just saying it.
The truth just whacked you pretty hard didn't in BL?
Oh the battles between the RN and IJN are still told about to this very day!
After the IJN put the HMS Repulse and HMS Prince of Wales to the bottom the RN tore azz out of their and did not come back until it was practically over.
I reiterate "You're asking for proof based on a hypothetical situation? You're more of an idiot than I thought."
Name them, cite their works.
You pompous arrogant idiot, I never made any such claim, so don't put words in my mouth.

Before you tell me the site isn't credible, cite the quote from Winston Churchill from a credible source and I will put my foot in my mouth.
Singapore? What about the Philippines?
As a typical American, I noticed you've been sidestepping that little issue whilst conveniently banging on about Dunkirk and Singapore instead.
I'm not suprised you've been ignoring the Philippines, though, because it really was rather embarassing for the Americans. A complete and utter abject humiliation of the highest order.
Only 14% of Britons think American did the most to win WWII. They're very sensible those Brits.
