That is true, the Brits were a major contributor, and the Russians self sacrafice (Well, this is a missnomer since it wasn't self sacrafice, it was Stalanist forced sacrafice or excution - which is more noble?).
However, Germany had the power to take on Russia and the British at the same time. Only when the Americans entered the war did things turn.
One more thing people forget, AMerica almost single handedly defeated the Japanese at the same time it was forcing its way across Europe.
Its amazing to see people write that America had no hand in WWII. Its actually disgusting and the half million US troops that died over there must be turning in their graves.

PS Do people think for a second that Japan would start attacking Russia from the opposite side if it wasn't worried about AMerica? Russia would have been defeated and we would all be speaking German right now.
