America only exists because of Europe. They got their politics from England and the Germans trained American troops during the Revelutionary war. During World War 2 Albert Einstein told the Americans about the nuke and its construction. They got their tank designs from the French and airplane tech from the Germans and Dutch in world war 1. America only has the best army due to mercenaries otherwise they couldn't do the simplest mission. They got their stealth from the germans, uboats from germans, snipers from germans boats from britians chemical warfare from germans hydrogen bombs from the russians rockets and missles from britians...

You Sir, are an idiot.

And I'm British just for the record.

Anyone who can think that a country can STEAL every single aspect of their military technology, ability and technique needs to read a book.

well, that is mostly bad example.
first, Einstein is only one of seicencists team who worked on the nuke. he even wasn't the project manager.
second, Einstein is private man. the fact he come from Europe as the fact he was jewish had no connection to your subject.
in adittion to the other "Europe owes US" thread- why don't you end it with tie, stop living on the history, and everybody would be happy?

Actually, the French had more to do with our victory in the Revolution than the Germans. I always thought the Germans sided with Britain - they did use Hessian mercenaries. Regardless, I'm not going to waste much more of my time arguing this point since you probably aren't going to change your mind on this matter ever.

Retarded. No nation "owes" another nation. We've been stealing culture from each other since the dawn of civilization.

It's not who made it, it's how you use it to blow the crap out of everybody else.

I'm sick and tired of both these threads and their counterparts; mostly they just end up in flame wars. How about we wipe the slate clean of all past deeds and go from there; then we'll see who owes who.

America only exists because of Europe.

Maybe, but what about the native population and the asians who settled the West coast before the europeans?

They got their politics from England

not really, we based the Articles of Confederation on Parliament but the Constitution was based on Greek Republic.

and the Germans trained American troops during the Revelutionary war.

So did the French...

During World War 2 Albert Einstein told the Americans about the nuke and its construction.

Albert Einstein only told the Americans about the equation e=mc2

They got their tank designs from the French

Yes but we are the ones who used them.

and airplane tech from the Germans and Dutch in world war 1.

Maybe but the americans have patton rights to the airplanes. Thank you Orville and Wilber your contributions will forever be known.

America only has the best army due to mercenaries otherwise they couldn't do the simplest mission.

Mercenaries???? where who hired them and when...

They got their stealth from the germans, uboats from germans,

couldn't we sink those with our very own "depth bombs"

snipers from germans

Actually unless the Germans invented the rifles before the Americans, before the revolution, then they were ours first.

boats from britians chemical warfare from germans

yes but we mass produced them and used them for more destuction than they.

hydrogen bombs from the russians

We invented the Fission Bomb which the Russians stole from us, and was also the basis for the hydrogen bomb.

rockets and missles from britians...

No, rockets were a German invention. and besides once again we perfected them.

hahahaa your such an idiot!

Well according to the who owes who your talking about, everyone should owe IRAQ (Babylon, Persia, etc) for being the orgigins of mankind as we know it. Do you feel like you owe Iraq anything ? Didn't think so.

Mercenaries tend to "side" with the one that pays them.

To Kreen.
I must say, I've never seen a less effective point-by-point attempt at disproving the OP. You pretty much said "You left out 'We're really stupid, too!', you stupidhead!"
Amazing.

I believe that would be due to King George III's ancestry. One of his other titles was "King of Hannover".
