Plimer and Silicon Chip

Prove that they weren't. Our pilots were trained in anything that flew, including crop dusters to free up the best planes for use overseas. The planes sent to Russia were a lot better than what was used to train our pilots. Some leaned to fly in patched together biplanes

Maybe we should just keep it and replace what our troops are using. A lot of US military units in Iraq & Afghanistan are using equipment and weapons that were to be scrapped.

When did I say that? I did say that some Allies didn't repay their war debt according to their agreement. Its not my fault that you can't tell the truth.

List them?

Oh, you want me to point to "the truth" as written by the USA armed forces? Hell, even your own WWII veteran piss all over "the official history".

I don't own any WW-II veterans. I served during the Vietnam era. Have you ever talked to any US W.W.II Veterans? I have, and attend memorials for the ones who pass on. We have about 200 names every three months, just in this county.

Keep yammering your pathetic attempts to insults. You sound more like Phil, every day.

Yes, that is why I could make the comment.

Partly why they said the Chinese were still preparing to build dozens of conventional reactor power plants.

MrT.

Bollocks. New Zealand pissed off the yanks when they banned nuclear war ships and reduced military co-operation. Nobody invaded them. (Australia continued to be "invaded" by New Zealanders though :-)

MrT.

Any time they wanted to.

MrT.

Why on earth would you think that? With over a Billion expendable people, *and* nuclear weapons, *and* their own aircraft and ship building facilities, what makes you think we'd last a week?

MrT.

Single shot rifles are no match for nuclear weapons in any case.

MrT.

Maybe he should instead be thanking those allies who helped the yanks fight wars in Korea, Vietnam, Iraq and Afghanistan they had no real interest in, (at their own expense, and largely with equipment bought and paid for from USA companies I might add!) especially when even the UN was against the US invasion of Iraq. So the allies are still paying for any perceived war "debts" it would seem to me. I think it's the USA who should be grateful now.

MrT.

Don't confuse him with facts.

MrT.

AFAIK, NZ hasn't got a defense force at all.

Im told that its an extremely hard place to invade to start with

**Nope. There's just no point.

The Russians built 36,163 IL2 and IL10 aircraft, are you saying that the US gave them more planes than that?

I found these figures for lend-lease items given to Russia on the internet, accuracy not guaranteed

Aircraft.............................14,795 Tanks.................................7,056 Jeeps................................51,503 Trucks..............................375,883 Motorcycles..........................35,170 Tractors..............................8,071 Guns..................................8,218 Machine guns........................131,633 Explosives..........................345,735 tons Building equipment valued.......$10,910,000 Railroad freight cars................11,155 Locomotives...........................1,981 Cargo ships..............................90 Submarine hunters.......................105 Torpedo boats...........................197 Ship engines..........................7,784 Food supplies.....................4,478,000 tons Machines and equipment.......$1,078,965,000 Non iron metals.....................802,000 tons Petroleum products................2,670,000 tons Chemicals...........................842,000 tons Cotton..........................106,893,000 tons Leather..............................49,860 tons Tires.............................3,786,000 Army boots.......................15,417,000 pairs

On that basis, the Russians built far more aircraft than the US gave them.

The vast majority of WWII pilots of all nations trained in biplanes.

**Nor is anything in the hands of the most rapid gun nutter. American gun nutters fail to recognise this simple point. Against the most ancient technology, still in active service in the US military (B-52 Bombers - ca 1952), civilans have zero defence. Hell, even some very well equipped military forces have no defence against them.

Guns, in the hands of civilians are simply no match for a well equipped, well trained military force.
