You do realize that the number of British military deaths in the war were 90%
as high as US deaths and total British deaths were almost 10% higher than
total US deaths. Those numbers are dwarfed by the numbers of Russian deaths.


Correct myself. British Military deaths in WWII were 10% higher than US
military deaths.

RTFM

And the british were in it for nearly 2 years longer than the US.

If we hadn't joined in WWII, would there still -be- a Great Britain? I
doubt I'm alone in "rather doubting it."

Too many people have died in war over land and religion.
