The United States has already won two world wars. Who is bigger?

The historian told how the United States won two world wars. Mr Trump, who had previously reported this, was right. So says Stanislav Kulchitsky.

The American nation won two world wars!

Donald Trump was right when he said that the United States had won two world wars, cites the opinion of the Institute’s Chief Researcher stories Ukraine Stanislav Kulchitsky website "InoTV" with reference to the material "Observer".

Kulchitsky said the following about American winner, which Trump had previously spoken about, “If this statement from [Trump] is viewed in such an extended context, where various events of several centuries are listed, separated by a comma, then there is nothing terrible here.”

“Indeed,” the historian added, “this is the nation that won the First World War, and here the USA also did not make a decisive contribution,” as a matter of fact, France and Germany, Austria and Russia fought, but at the last stage of the war the United States crushed Germans and their material resources, and expeditionary corps. "

The “last stage” mentioned, apparently, manifested itself in World War II. The United States "actually did little with its troops on the European front, only after the opening of the second front," the historian admits. True, "in other theaters of war they fought for real, nothing can be said here." The role of the USA in other places was great, and the role of American technology was especially great, because "the fighting went on in other European countries." “Churchill talked about other theaters of war, in Africa, Asia, Oceania, and even in the Arctic,” the scientist recalled. - This war really was a world war. And the role of the United States, especially in terms of financial and technical power, is very large. "

Finally, the United States provided technical assistance to the Soviet Army. For example, US6 "Studebaker" trucks, which "moved almost all Soviet artillery." In addition, the United States supplied non-ferrous metals to the USSR.

“The Americans provided everything the Soviet Army needed,” Kulchitsky summed up. And he concluded: “After the war there was such a tendency that exists in Russia to this day: to minimize the help of the allies and maximize the contribution of the Soviet Army to liberating Europe from fascism, although freeing Europe from fascism, the Soviet Army conquered it for communism”.

This historian, we note, made his loud historical discovery not from scratch. He supported Mr. Trump, a great friend and small sponsor of Kiev.

Mr Trump reported earlier about the Americans: “We the people who dug the Panama Canal, won two world wars, sent a man to the moon and put communism on their knees.”

Historian Kulchitsky left to perpetuate the speech of Donald Trump in some new historical work. After all, a colleague. The Americans dug the Panama Canal, and what Ukrainian historians dug? Seems like some kind of sea?

Do not pay attention to the statement of all CRAZY from "tseEuropa"! They have been there for a long time - "iodine deficiency" is observed!
PS Hour of Truth! In the original, the Pythagorean theorem states: "The sum of the squares of the lengths of the Maidan lands is equal to the square of the length of the peremogi." PS Biography too short, forgot to clarify that before visa-free travel to Italy, Pythagoras collected strawberries for several years in ancient Poland!

It is a pity that Trump has not thought of the victory over Napoleon to ascribe to the United States. But it seems that this will not be the case.

If we consider it not militarily, but financially, economically, then of course the United States did not suffer any damage, but enriched most of all. To whom is war, and to whom is mother dear! Trading at the same time with all countries, including the enemy, the USA incredibly developed its industry and became a super power. By the way, it was the war that helped the United States push through the Bretonwood Agreements in 1944 and make the dollar a settlement world currency.
Therefore, all world wars were evil for all, and for the United States - a blessing.

Then the question sounds completely different: "Who won from the first and second world wars?" And THE WINNER PEOPLE - THE SOVIET PEOPLE and the winner country - THE SOVIET UNION!

The "historian" forgot to add - they delivered and received GOLD for this !!!

[Warrior with machine gun]

such historians and their “labors” need to be heated, even though it will be of some use, strange autumn is already over, and schizos will not calm down.

[dzuar saubarag]

In principle, everything is true. At least in Russian, the words “win” and “win” are not completely synonymous. And the USA of the two world wars really won more than all combined - both the “booming 20s” and the formation of the American superpower in the 50s are a direct consequence of this gain. But the winner gets wounds, severe wounds that need to be healed and at the same time to prepare for a new battle with such "winners". Inevitably, you will begin to believe in conspiracy theories about the true causes of the Great War ...

[medvedron]

I totally agree, the Americans, as always, expose the half-truth as the truth. The most important thing for us, the inhabitants of the country that made the most serious contribution to the defeat of the Germans in the first and the victory over the Nazis in the Second World Wars, is not to forget about this.

Marshal Zhukov in post-war conversations said:

Quote:
Now they say that the Allies never helped us ... But it cannot be denied that the Americans drove so many materials without which we could not build up our reserves and could not continue the war ... We did not have explosives, gunpowder. There was nothing to equip rifle cartridges. The Americans really helped us out with gunpowder, explosives. And how much they drove us to sheet steel! How could we quickly set up tank production if it weren’t for American steel help? And now they present the matter in such a way that we had all of this in abundance. - From the report of the chairman of the KGB to V. Semichastny - to N. S. Khrushchev; signature stamp “top secret” // Zenkovich N. Ya. Marshals and general secretaries. M., 1997.S. 161

Highly appreciated the role of Lend-Lease and A.I. Mikoyan, during the war, he was responsible for the work of seven Union People’s Commissariats (trade, procurement, food, fish and meat and dairy industries, sea transport and the river fleet) and, as the People’s Commissar for Foreign Trade, since 1942, he led the reception of allied Lend-Lease supplies:

Quote:
- ... when the American stew, the oatmeal, egg powder, flour, other products began to arrive at us, what immediately significant additional calories our soldiers received! And not only the soldiers: something was falling to the rear. Or take the supply of cars. After all, we received, as far as I remember, taking into account losses in the way of about 400 thousand first-class cars of the time, such as Studebaker, Ford, passenger Willis and amphibians. Our entire army was actually on wheels and what wheels! As a result, its maneuverability increased and the pace of advance significantly increased.
- G. Kumanev “Stalin's People's Commissars Speak,” p. 70— Smolensk: Rusich, 2005

Here is Mikoyan:

Quote:
“Now it’s easy to say that Lend-Lease meant nothing. He ceased to be of great importance much later. But in the fall of 1941, we all lost, and if it were not for Lend-Lease, not weapons, food, warm clothes for the army and other supplies, the question is how things would turn out ”(Berezhkov V.M. How I became a translator of Stalin. M., 1993.S. 337)
-------
Digital data confirming the above statements by Zhukov and Mikoyan can be found in the studies of I.P. Lebedev 2) who writes: “During the war, the USSR received 18 (according to other sources, 700) planes from the Allies to help with Lend-Lease, including fighter jets,“ aerocobra ”,“ kitty-hawk ”,“ tomahawk ”,“ hurricane ” ", medium bombers B-22, A-200 Boston, transport C-25, 20 tanks and self-propelled guns, 47 thousand kilometers of telephone wire, 12 million phones; 200 million pairs of boots, more than 100 thousand tons of leather for sewing shoes, 2,5 thousand meters of wool, 15 thousand tons of stew, 50 thousand tons of fat, 54 thousand tons of cow butter, 250 thousand tons of sugar, 300 steam locomotives, 65 wheeled tanks, 700 electro-diesel locomotives, about a thousand self-unloading wagons, 1860 thousand railway platforms, which with their help delivered 100 thousand tons of explosives, almost 70 million tons of oil products, and another 10 million tons of special steel to the front and rear for armor, 344 thousand tons of copper and bronze, 2 thousand tons of aluminum. According to specialists, it was possible to build 2,5 thousand fighters and bombers out of this aluminum - almost as many as our aircraft factories produced them throughout the war "(I. Lebedev 400)

and this is a drop in the ocean from the spent. And then citing Zhukov’s remarks, you omit the fact that it was Zhukov who said that without Land Liz we would certainly have managed, but it would have been more difficult.

Fortune telling on coffee grounds? What could be built! By the way, delta wood was used in the manufacture of aircraft during the war. It seems that you are diligently trying to create the background that the Americans did everything for us.
All of your figures are struggling with a real balanced assessment of how much American aid amounted to the total spent. According to various estimates, this is not more than 5%, TOTAL! That is, it must be said correctly that the Americans helped us only by 5%. For reliability, I will give you a reference:

The official historical assessment of the role of Lend-Lease was given by the Chairman of the State Planning Commission, Nikolai Voznesensky, in his book "The Military Economy of the USSR during the Patriotic War", published in 1948:

... if we compare the size of supplies of industrial goods by the Allies in the USSR to the size of industrial production at the socialist enterprises of the USSR for the same period, it turns out that the share of these supplies in relation to domestic production during the war economy will be only about 4%.

Have you read? Now you can further surprise us with your numbers, how many thousands, tons, and pieces have your Americans delivered!

[Nasrat]

Your false patriotism makes it difficult to think rationally ... why pay for 4% of the volume of domestic production abroad? Wouldn’t it be easier to channel these funds into production and would the return be much more efficient? And taking into account transportation costs, Stalin is still doing wasteful work !!!

On September 3, 1941, in a personal message to the Prime Minister, Mr. Churchill, he wrote: "I thank you for the promise, in addition to the promised 200 fighter planes, to sell another 200 fighters to the Soviet Union. I have no doubt that Soviet pilots will be able to master them and put them into action." In December 1943, at a gala dinner in honor of the end of the Tehran Conference, Stalin, standing with a glass of wine and turning to Roosevelt, once again emphasized: "Without American help, we could not defeat the enemies." He at the Yalta Conference (February 4-11, 1945) said that "in his opinion ... Lend-Lease is a great invention without which victory would have been different ", adding that "in previous wars, some states provided financial assistance to their allies, but it only insulted those who received it and created financial difficulties. Lend-Lease did not give rise to such evil.", once again emphasizing that, in his opinion Lend-Lease made an extraordinary contribution to the victory. "
We only note that all decisions on rendering assistance to the Soviet Union were made shortly after he was expelled from the League of Nations as an aggressor who attacked Finland.
----
Stalin:. Lend-Lease is a great invention without which victory would have been different " More Soviet citizens would die and the territories captured by the enemy would be much wider, which means that it would have to restore the country longer and more expensive .....

[Nasrat]

In December 1941 - the first half of 1942, when the Soviet Union evacuated industrial enterprises to the east, American supplies were vital. Until June 30, 1942, the United States sent 1300 aircraft, more than 2000 tanks, 16500 trucks, 15000 assault rifles, radio stations and field phones. Equally important at this time were the supply of machine tools and equipment for factories producing military equipment (tanks, planes), ammunition, uniforms, food ...
----
A public opinion poll in the United States in August 1941 showed that more than 70% of the country's inhabitants supported the Soviet Union and the transfer of military materials to it. Public and charitable organizations came to the rescue: the “Russian War War Relief” Committee, which had about 400 branches in the country, the American Jewish Joint Distribution Committee, the American Red Cross Society, The American Federation of Labor and the Congress of Industrial Unions, and the Jewish organization of New York, Ambidjan (AMBIJAN), marched over 500 children from the Serebryany Bor Bor orphanage in the Stalingrad Region. They raised funds to buy and send parcels with food, clothes, shoes, and medicines. The scale of humanitarian assistance was impressive. In 1943 alone, more than ten million Americans gave their savings in favor of the USSR, and during the war years, the US population, among whom there were many Jews, including those collected during the trip of S. Mikhoels and I. Fefer, transferred more than $ 20 million to the Soviet Union . In addition, more than eight million dollars were raised by the Jewish Council for Russian Military Assistance.

I agree, but the lion's share of US supplies came in 43-44 years when a radical turning point in the war occurred! I already wrote this below in the comment you can see. Therefore, when supplies were most needed, there were few of them. Do not exaggerate the importance of American assistance. Why are you trying so hard? You are wrong!

[Nasrat]

I didn’t say anywhere that the Americans won the war, but the fact that they really helped us is true and thank you for the help ... Help was really important, look at the chronicle of 43-45 years - Studebakers run everywhere, Willis, Pokryshkin on the aerocobra became a hero of the USSR - and there is nothing shameful about it ... The army acquired a motorized look, otherwise it would have gone on horseback to Berlin, (thanks to the Mongols for the conics)

Yes, for the money, no one else in the world helped us so important (they just didn’t have this “important” thing — take the same Mongols), all the more so since we still haven’t paid for the Lend-Lease ..

[Stas157]

Quote: Nasr

and thanks for the help I have to say ...

Do not. Nobody forced them to this. There was no mercy and kindness in their motivation. They did this from completely mercantile motives (both for money and gold, including). The USSR fought for them with the Germans. And then, precisely because the United States linked its supplies to the Soviet attack on Japan, the USSR defeated the invincible Kwantung Army, which the United States never managed to cope with during the entire war. The USSR paid with the lives of 12 thousand soldiers in the war with the Japanese. Let the Americans say thanks! Because people's lives are much more expensive than any material values.

[Nasrat]

We are the same in Syria not because of mercy and kindness !!! Everyone has their own interests ... Now, the interests with the USA are different - try to agree with them on something similar ...

"The United States brought China to its knees, and for a long time ..."

Stalin cleared his throat and continued:

- So, citizen Trump, you said that in September 480 BC, George Washington, at the head of a detachment of three hundred US Marines, made significant progress in the fight against King Xerxes, stopping his army at Thermopylae?

Trump sighed and glanced fearfully at the stout bearded man in a red coat and helmet with a large crest sitting in the front row. He expressively ran a short sword through his throat and winked at Trump, clearly hinting at something bad. He's probably from CNN, Donald thought anxiously.

Stalin continued to read the transcript.

- You also said that in 335 BC, the phalanges of the US National Guard brought Thebes to their knees, after which they conquered Asia Minor, Egypt, the Persian Empire and would have conquered everything if Zeus’s son Abraham Lincoln weren’t tired and decided not to return to native Kentucky.

There was a bit of fuss in the hall - a bearded man with a comb tried to take a spear from a jumping up young man in a golden helmet in the shape of a lion’s head, saying: “No, Sasha, but not here.”

Joseph Vissarionovich disapprovingly tapped the carafe with his pipe, urging everyone to order.

- Further, the American nation continued to lead and inspire all of humanity, establishing the Roman Empire, along the fields of which General Grant walked, tracing his palm over ripe ears of wheat.

There was a loud slap in the hall. Everyone turned around. A man in a toga and in a golden wreath sat, covering his eyes with his hand, shaking his head and muttering something in Latin.

Stalin glanced reproachfully and continued:

- In 1213, the U.S. Army Airborne Horde captured a passage in the Great Wall of China, which the Americans had built earlier, after which it brought China and Central Asia to its knees, and then ... Comrade Genghis Khan, I ask you not to interrupt - what were you hanging around Citizen Trump, you will tell him after the meeting. Especially since I'm already finishing.

“Then the Americans won the Thirty Years' War, the First World War and, what I especially liked, the Second World War when Sergeant Brad Pitt and Captain Tom Hanks hoisted a star-striped flag over the defeated Reichstag.” Did I miss anything, Citizen Trump?

“They flew to the moon ...” Trump said and involuntarily blushed.

Stalin got up and drew his jacket.

- Comrades, there was a proposal to shoot citizen Trump for a lie on an especially large scale and the theft of someone else's historical property. Please vote. Who agrees?

Hundreds of hands soared into the air.

The two Chekists firmly took Trump by the arms and dragged him somewhere.

He rested, demanded to convene the UN Security Council, and then dodged and kicked a security officer on a chrome boot.

- Dear, do not kick! - the Chekist answered in a sleepy female voice, and Donald woke up in horror.

He looked at the sleeping Melania, with a shaking hand wiped cold sweat from his forehead and smiled - it was just a dream. He still remained the leader of a great nation that defeated all Jurassic dinosaurs.

Stupidity multiplied by two !!! On finances - we still haven’t paid off on a lend-lease ... So, when you “go” from hunger, ask for groceries in installments in the store for seventy years ..
And our soldiers ate stew and thought it was very humane !!! and there was something to fight (tanks, planes, small arms) - and this was also considered humanity !!! And they brought in ammunition, humane Studebakers and locomotives from the USA !!! "Katyusha" and they stood on humane American cars !!! Teams were given on humane phones and wires from the USA !!! Industry humanely built tanks and planes on American machine tools, American cutting tools made of steel and alloys from humane land lease ..
The facts cannot be denied ..

[Veteran]

Regarding payment of debt under the Lend-Lease, you have outdated information. In 1993, after the announcement of the continuity of the Russian Federation to USSR debts, these debts were technically divided into debts to governments (Paris Club) and debts to private banks (London Club); debt for Lend-Lease was a debt to the US government, that is, part of the debt to the Paris Club. Russia completely repaid its debt to the Paris Club in August 2006, i.e. paid, including, and a loan under the Lend-Lease.

[Sars]

Trump could add that before winning two world wars, America (people from America) had two world wars, which earned a good gesheft. Could name exactly these people.

[vnord]

In fact, the Second World War was won by the USSR with the support of the Allies (without it was harder and with great damage in material and human terms), and now throw stones at me - as a result of the war (like the First World War) the United States won, ("jumping into the last tram the bandwagon .. "). Therefore, Trump is not cunning here ..

--------------------------------
Lend-lease deliveries were especially critical between the end of 1941 and the whole of 1942. Further, the role of Lend-Lease is not so big. We all poke mainly armored steel and jet fuel. It’s supposedly faster to assemble tanks from the finished sheet than to make the desired steel melts and roll the sheet. Well, also the famous Spam stew, which was already half soy protein already.

Yes, it was during this period that deliveries were most important. But, we must admit that supplies were very unevenly distributed over the years of the war. And the lion's share of them occurred in 43-44 years, that is, when a turning point in the war had already occurred. In the most difficult year of 41, there were almost no deliveries, and in the year 42 there were fewer than 43 or 44.

In the Council of People's Commissars only by October 1941 they decided what was needed ... when the first Lend-Lease protocol was signed ... by July 1942 - the supply chain was established ... and they managed to get ready for the Stalingrad battle ...

Before the lend-lease until October 1941 — deliveries were made, they were paid in gold — it was difficult to say specifically what was needed in the first place because of the prevailing difficult situation at the front, because there were few deliveries ... yes, and there were no political agreements ..

1. Pay attention to the number of explosives supplied by Lend-Lease, derived materials for their production + industrial equipment.
2. Then go to the number of delivered radio stations, field phones, cable.
3. Then we find out the number of delivered vehicles (primarily trucks), locomotives and wagons (in passing, learning about the state of the domestic railway fleet by the middle of the 43rd and the rate of its renewal).
Finally, we think about the role of a) ammunition; b) communication; c) transport in conducting large-scale offensive operations of the Red Army of 1943-44.
Will you try? With numbers specific, they are no secret.

Why is this all? Here's how to discuss the land lease, so almost every phone and matchbox is starting to count. And how to discuss brilliant Jews, it turns out that Landau and Ginzburg created by themselves, without expensive laboratories, uranium mines and other such “little bit important” garbage. As for the offensive operations and the “role” of Lend-Lease vehicles, the letter of the grandfather, who was marching in the 380 Red Banner Rifle Division, eloquently speaks. He wrote that they were tired of going. And about the "role" of Lend-Lease phones, it is eloquent in the award sheet of the medal "For Courage" that it was written with personal initiative that he helped organize the crossing to force the Dnieper. Therefore, numbers are numbers, and war is war.

American historian S. Terkeli "The good war: An Oral History of World War II »

Almost the whole world during this war experienced terrible upheavals, horrors and was almost destroyed. We came out of the war with incredible equipment, tools, labor and money. For most Americans, war was fun... I am not talking about those unfortunates who have lost their sons and daughters. However for everyone else it was a damn good time

"The US has already won two world wars. Who is more?" The question is not correct in essence, since “AN ANCIENT EUROPEAN state called UKRAINE could win more.
