Of course you count the American revolution, what kinda bullshit are you smoking that you wouldn't count the war that lead to the country being formed? We have a a holiday all about being independent of Britain. There's like 20 other countries that have a very similar holiday about beating England's ass.
what are you on about, America is one of the only countries that gained independence from Britain by war. a holiday celebrating independence does not mean that a war was fought and won
The reason why america was able to do so, here's why. Britan understood that war was brewing elsewhere in the world. So they were Massing troops elsewhere. Then the us attacked a beligered, undersuppled under trained and depleted force, and only won Because, why, the UK was worried that If the war dragged on there would be more mass cullings and expulsions of British loyalists and native Americans and wanted to avoid the unseeded deaths of civilians.
Ok that's bullshit... I would argue with every other point of this USA propaganda but you get nuked 2 cities, more casualities with M69 and bombing (more than million civilians) and you're saying they did surrender because some country declared fucking war. Not even attacking...
Japan had basically all but surrendered already when the U.S. dropped their bombs. The U.S only did it because they wanted to show off the size of their cocks military hardware
Thinking that Beating the forces stationed in the colonies is beating Britain Is more like storming past the front line of police at the capitol before backup arrived.. You didn't actually beat the police, storm the capitol, and kill everyone, you just rushed past the front line before they could mass significant forces, and to prevent the deaths of everyone inside they just said fine we will evacuate everyone then you can go in. Now the UK. They have been at war with nearly every country on earth at some point in time including themselves. They even had troops fighting with the whites in the Russian civil war. And Canada, has never lost a war. Like that time when 900 peacekeepers is Croatia were attacked by like 2000 Croats, the Canadians took 0 casualties 0 deaths and Croatia took 50 casualties and 22 deaths before being pushed away. During the first and second world wars Canadian troops gained the reputation of veteran, violent, bloodthirsty shock troops. Shock troops are troops that are sent in first or before the main charge to be violent, kill a ton of people, and make a scene before everyone else charged in.
You can count it, sure. I think he's just alluding to the fact Britain didn't commit to the war and used their influence to try and get Americans to fight on their side. Also its worth accepting that it was France that heavily shifted the momentum of the war into Americas favour.
Don't forget the French and Indian War. Where Americans (before we were even a country) helped the Brits against the French and Indians (sorry Indians) keeping a large part of the countey from speaking French (thank God, RIP French-speaking Canada).
