Again same resault has with any contry just magicly disapering. Why would there be anying specail about America being blow up by a Alien bomb some how stelthed so nobody can see what happens.
I dought the resault would be much diffrent if any other contry suddenly disapered.
Try to think about everything american-influenced in your life.
I try not to, it makes me as sad as russian history.
So I see you wish to live without these things made possible by american ingenurity and, most importantly, the FREEDOM to retain rights to your inventions (which sparks invention for profit):
-telephones
-computers
-anything related to computers
-modern american cars (ok they suck compared to ferrari ones but they don't cost 10 mil each!)
-modern military equipment your nation uses to defend itself
-you speak english on the internet!
-you use an english keyboard
the list goes on and on.
Telephone: son of telegraph invented by in italian
computers: invented in france
anything related to comptuer: see above
modern americans car: actually most produced in china like your military humvee (american can arent' selled in europe)
Moder equipment: no one use massive ammount of us equipment, even the us equipment came from israel
You speak english on the internet: yeah..... english... not american slang
you use english on an keyboard: not true keyboard is an alphabet messed up and pressin A on keyboard measn "100000" not a in english alphabet
And the list can go far away....

Where do you get this Israel stuff? What about this computer stuff?
You're not very bright are you?
think about it for a second...you're typing english, to use one example (of many).
Now english...on an american hosted site...on an American-funded endeavor (internet)...on an American computer with parts designed from America (and if you say you go all AMD and ATI no matter what becuase they 'aren't american' then you've hit a further level of stupidity).
You're interfaced into the Internet via american-made code methods. You play games made possible by american inventors. You ogle earth from space because of american ingenuity.
You play Company of Heroes. An American game based on Americans vs nazis taking information from an American war.
You play around with American tech in GRAW, R6, Call of duty, and other military-game franchises.
You're european nations have been a huge part in funding the american-made F-35 (we will not give you the F-22).
What have euros done recently? I'm going to do it again and sound like a broken record, but there's one really big ass continent right below you europeans. Unless, of course, you are OK with things such as the bombing of the spanish subway, french rioting, threats of death to a man making a movie about muslims in the netherlands, and attempted hijacking of 9 british planes.
You're driving a vehicle improved by american technology. You outsource to china just like us, so don't start there. You're wearing clothing partially manufactured thanks to American styles and most likely produced in China. You board a space station that is mostly American, on a remote-controlled cargo craft that is based off American design (you guys called it the le mark or some other gay name like that).
Your modern equipment (civilian and military sectors) is thanks to the works of 19th and 20th century American scientists who were free to freely test their ideas in America. Your sciences have many leading American scientists. Einstein, Tesla, and many others immigrated here to develop wonderful ideas on physics due to the inability to do such in Europe (and that continues to this day, just like everything on this incomplete list. there aint enough time to write down everything.). Every half-finished european idea was fully developed in the States (telephone, for instance
) and further developed (cell phone) in teh States.
You speak English thanks to American sacrifices and you live a free life with the freedom to do mostly whatever in Europe thanks to hundreds of thousands of American sacrifices throughout history.
NOW tell me the US aint important.
Now tell me America isn't important. Or have you just been playing me this whole time?
*edit* oh, and we got sam l jackson, will smith, chuck norris, and a bunch of hot chicks. You can't beat the 3 most bad-ass guys and ten million smokin hawt chicks!

the thing that piss me off is that you american think are the only one doing sacrifice...
Many nation helping you in afganistan
Few helping in iraq
Tons helping in ww2
Tons helping in ww1
Few helping in south vietnam
Few helping in your civil war
Lot helping in serbian crisis
If you make a list of them just for see how many not american blood have feed the grass for helping you and maybe you don't even know.
And don't understan why saying think like "american soldier are dick" and i don't like gwb govt. is making me like "omfg you are an american i want to kill you!" think that is totally bullshit cuz as an airsoft gamer i bot love to have nazi and marines gears and weapon.
(fort the pc thing.... why do you have hamish lol??? [ O_o] )
And on the chick i'm not so sure..... actually i thing french girls are the best (maybe because i'm in love with one.. dunno
)
you never haved a big war on your soil so you don't really know how is to see your "home in ruin", your friend killed from a bomb dropped by the "liberator", your girl raped from some drunken soldier war is shit no matter how many laws to make it looking more clean, always civilan pay for politician choice.
And once again i ask this for the last time "For what an iraqi need freedom if he can't have an hot meal all days on his table???" please give me an answer don't just say "beacause saddam killed more" because is bullshit

Well, just picking out one of the multiple wrong things in your 'pro-America' rant...
CoH was made by Relic. Relic is based in Canada.
Nope, not an American game. Well, technically North American...but not US American.
CoH also brought the British in, surprisingly not American.
WWII was fought by millions, not all of them Americans...there's a reason it was called a World War. Not an 'American' War.

I don't hate america, but i think some perspective is needed here.
yes america in WW2 sacrificed allot, due to the agression of the Axis, i agree we enjoy the freedom we have now to americans in general but also to all men and woman who fought in ww2 from all commonwealth countries and other allied nations. My country Australias uffred over 100k casulties in ww1 a high % of the population then, as did allot of other european countries, when germany came at them again, there needed to be somone to fill the gap and no one was really prepared.
But lets get some perspective, America was a european colony, vistired by spanish portuguese, french germans and english. Her cultural traits are derived from european roots and her fundemental views on democracy are based in greek history and her military appraoches are based on french and british history.
She is a great country, but just because you are great does not in anyway allow you to be boorish, arrogant and lord it over everyone, a truly great nation would be respectful of its peers and while have power use that power in moderation.
I tend to think we lose sight of the fact that In Iraq aside from the non-existant WMD's that a whole civilisation was under the boot of an opressive regieme that had no quams in using heinous weapons on its own populace. I often wonder if the BUSH administration had appraoched the world community with the intent to rid the country of a tyrant that was opressing his own people and not what in reality was poor intelligence work based on hearsay and stupidity that the political will to continue in Iraq would be stronger.
IN the end it was poor politics and arrogance that got BUSH and his administration in the shit hole, and the people that suffer are those who offer thier lives for somthing other than themselves as well as the people of iraq.

Being a soldier, and reffering to soldiers has no bearing on polotics, a soldier has orders, he follows them, he dies for those orders. The end.
I love my country, I hate my goverment, but I am still joining the US Army to serve in family tradition and honor of service to my country. Please do not confuse my service nor my fellow countrymans service with ignorance.
We serve to serve, it is above our pay grade and control what poloticians do say or beleive, we simply do what we are trained to do. I personally find a topic entitled "Why are american soldiers the best?" that has gone completly political to be insulting to dead men from all countries, they all gave their lives because they were asked to by their elected or unelected officials to do so in the name of the country to which they were born or resided in.
Nathna Hale, a captured Colonial spy said it best just before being hung by the British, he was asked for last words and said " I regret that I have but one life to give for my country".

Americas troops arn't the only ones to be well trained. Not saying anything against them just saying alot of other contrys have well trained armys.
And I suppos it is abit sad what this topic has fallen into but hey when you make a topic called "Why American Soilders are the best" on a forum that has people from many nations all around the world you're quit frankly asking for it.

actually ciwawa is right. there was an italian guy that invented pretty much the same thing a couple of years before Bell.
i cant be arsed to look it up at the moment but i think he just thought that it was no use or something like that.
also i demand a seperate thread in which lopocus and ciwawa can throw their stubborn arguments at each other and leave this to the rest of us for somewhat more sensible discussion.

AmPM, I was just about to post the same thing.
We can go all the way back to non-electric telephones too, which the first recorded documents lead to a Chinese inventor in 968.

English -- which is a west germanic language.
This topic is turning into a history lesson. Which all depends on what you want to believe. I'd say the discussion value of this topic is nearing an end.

well yes, but their dialects only transformed to English when they invaded the British Isle.
point is, the English Language allready existed way before the American Continent was even discovered, let alone the founding of the United States.
