Debate: Which country is better - England or U.S.A?
Side: ENGLAND!

"The United States has never had a Colony, "Thats because you were a colony"...unless you include the Philippines. Even then we did not exploit them to the extent, that India was exploited. We had a good relationship with the Philippines, especially after we liberated them from the Japanese invasion during WWII and granting them independence."You do not exploit other countries from your government directly but american companies under your power have exploited nations.http://www.projectcensored.org/top-stories/articles/19-american-companies-exploit-the-congo/ "Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is still helping. Your argument is trivial."You've gone away from my original statement: U.S.A didn't help us when we needed it, you only joined our side after we started to win."Actually, you're right. You did fight in the pacific theater, I actually knew about these, and am extremely surprised that you did not bring these up much earlier. Perhaps you did not know about them until now...As I was ready to point out before and I am am ready to point out now. These were colonial battles, attempts to protect your own colonies from Japanese attacks. For instance the Battles of Imphal and Kohima, were fought in India (a British Colony) and were fought by mostly Indian troops. The Guadalcanal campaign occurred in the Solomon Islands, a British Commonwealth. You were not in the Pacific to Help us, you were only there to protect your own assets."Correct me if I'm wrong, but this is still helping. Your argument is trivial."Which would explain why The Canadian Army is vastly superior to The United States Army...An illustration of sarcasm."Also the amount of land contributes to the amount of territory your enemy has to conquer."Then they are idiots."good something we agree on"As I stated earlier:"Had they have had the same technology, they would have done the same to us."You couldn't have been more civilised than they would have been?" We warned them extensively before use, and it prevented a long and bloody war on mainland Japan which would have also seen a high civilian death toll. "Why kill civilians then, why not a military base or enemy airfeild?"Admittedly, we could have handled the situation better, I was not there when the decision to drop the bomb was made."A point which also applies to me."The bombs had the multi-purposes of ending the war with Japan,"There were several other ways." preventing a war with the USSR using the fear of the atomic weapons,"Or just a showing off of power" and preventing a communist take over of Japan. Under the stresses of war, decisions were made regrettably that cannot be undone.hindsight is 20/20"I cannot disagree with this"What the "essay" fails to mention is that Japan would never submit to an unconditional surrender, which was the only acceptable surrender, as outlined in the Potsdam Declaration, a declaration made by BOTH American and British leaders."I have made the fatal mistake of not reading my source before submitting it."You're list was ill-conceived. The idea that you could possibly construct a list of all of the failures of a nation and compare it accurately and objectively to another nation is grossly naive. "Sorry I worded my last argument wrongly I meant that I listed some of your country's failures."A true historian could scarcely conceive of such a list, if he could even be trusted to construct it in an unbiased manner. I brushed off your list not because they were not valid failures, but because it is of little use in a debate like this."If they were of little use then you would have been able to deal with them easily, the fact that you chose not to meet them makes you appear to be a coward."Utter nonsense!American wars won:"sorry another point I worded wrongly I meant wars you won on your own.I will now proceed to smash all your staements which doesn't come under these terms: "Revolutionary war"You fought this alongside Spain, the Kingdom of France and the Dutch Republic."Spanish-American war"You fought this alongside Cuba, Puerto Rica and Katipunan"WWI&WWII"fought with the help of usnd others" Cold War"fought with the help of us and others"Persian Gulf War"fought with the help of us and others"Iraq War"You fought with the help of Iraq and Peshmerga"American Wars lost:"I have ignored these as i cannot see how they are relevant"Mexican-American war,Philippine-American War"these are the few wars you won on your own, my point proven"I've already addressed this. You have yet to address the fact the fostering opium addiction in the civilians of a warring state is also very wrong."There is a differnece between strategic planning and pushing a button.I apoligise for not finishing your argument but I'm running out of time, if you repeat them in your next one I'm sure I'll be able to discuss them.
