We Are Still The 3 Super Powers. And I Hope Germany Have Learned Their Lesson Over The Years And Join The Allied Powers When WW3 Comes Around. Against Iran , North Korea , Russia , Syria , Pakistan , Etc. We All Learned That Land Will NOT Give You Happiness. That Attack On Poland In 1939 Was In Fact Devastating. And Your German Leader Or Chancellor Is Amazing. She Is A Great Leader And Leads Germany The Right Way. I Hope There Will Be No More Evil And Furious Leaders Of Germany.

      WW1, the main reasons why they joined was because of U Boats attacking and sinking merchant and civilian ships, along with a transmission from Germany to Mexico asking them to invade America, I don't see Britain asking for help there??
      WW2, well..... Pearl Harbour... Number one main reason why America declared war on Japan was because of that, they only joined the war on Europe because Hitler was that stupid he decided to declare war on them when he shouldn't have..
      So tell me, where in any of these scenarios is Britain asking for help??? Enlighten, because both times they joined was due to the opposition committing military aggression towards America, and in order to protect your interests, you have to declare war, which is what they did.

      Well now we have moronic college kids who idolise Stalin, who no doubt will pop up their ungrateful hateful little minds in these comments eventually, so looks like we'd end up in the same situation either way. War is not black and white, you take losses with the win, the British Empire began to be broken up to help subsidise the economic damage the war took on us. Fact is nobody other than him could have guided us to victory in that war because nobody but him wanted to win that war. And I'd rather a famine than be under Nazi rule, consequences of war are real. There's a reason the entire country voted him in unanimously, him and the soldiers who fought for him are the reason we're all alive today.

      The lead was a guy called Alan turning he was the one who made the machine which could break the codes not Poland the help Poland gave helped but was useless hence why they couldn't break it in 1939
      The planes Poland gave didn't really help to win as they were mostly using hurricanes and spitfires
      Poland was occupied incredibly quickly and they lost the war I don't know how they can be considered winners when their country got captured and occupied
      But Polish people did go to Britain and France it wasn't in high numbers as obviously they had border control
      The Polish defence though although they fell quickly it was because they were between 2 strong powers and they didn't go down without a fight
      Edit: my opinions over the last 1month have changed massively Poland never stopped fighting in World war Two they wouldn't of agreed to peace if they wasn't forced too even though they agreed to peace and occupation (because they were forced too) they never stopped fighting and I have a lot of respect for the Polish if they weren't inbetween 2 super powers who hated eachother, had a higher population and better war equipment they wouldn't of surrendered I'm not going to delete the comment because it shows how people most of the time only remember the Soviet Union, United Kingdom and the United States war effort

      Poland's defeat was a guarantee they were in the middle of 2 super powers who hated each other
      However the Polish never fully surrendered it was the Polish Government which had no choice but to surrender the people never stopped fighting going to allied countries and fighting in Poland

      If you mention anti-Zionism, It's a mask of Anti-Semitisim! The latter being a FRAUD!
      As said by Erich von dem Bach-Zewlewsky; a Nazi leader:
      "I am the only living witness but I must say the truth. Contrary to the opinion of the National Socialists, that the Jews were a highly organized group, the appalling fact was that they had no organization whatsoever. The mass of the Jewish people were taken complete by surprise. They did not know at all what to do; they had no directives or slogans as to how they should act. This is the greatest lie of anti-Semitism because it gives the lie to that old slogan that the Jews are conspiring to dominate the world and that they are so highly organized. In reality, they had no organization of their own at all, not even an information service. If they had had some sort of organization, these people could have been saved by the millions, but instead, they were taken completely by surprise. Never before has a people gone as unsuspectingly to its disaster. Nothing was prepared. Absolutely nothing."

      The US is an equally great country but I have to suggest that UK’s unity may be attributable to the fact that its constitutional monarchy allows the country to stay loyal to HM the Queen and what she represents no matter how politics has changed. Sir Winston is HM the Queen’s first PM and BJ the 14th. At the end of the day, the British spirits lie in the cause of freedom and democracy and this is something above party politics.

    We All Probably Wouldn’t be Alive if it wasn’t for Churchill and the men in the army.

    Or being in a army plane and crashing down to the ground!
