London? That city who owes her very existence to the US? England, that nation whose survival depends upon the US? Europe, that collection of nations who basically turn their entire defense needs over to the US so they could drink wine, eat cheese and holiday for the whole of August every year?

Okay, so go fly a balloon.

London Mayor Sadiq Khan gave permission for the balloon to fly.
Also, reported, said: “supports the right to peaceful protest and understands that this can take many different forms”

OK, wonder if, such a balloon would be, ‘allowed’, to fly, if it was of, Mayor Sadiq Khan, or the Queen, or the PM ?
especially in a country of Subjects of a Monarchy, that has no equivalent to our 1st or 2nd. (Ask Tony Blair about that),

A Old Joke: ‘If not for the USA, and the Blood of it’s Citizens, most of Europe would be speaking German right now’.

Funny how the lefties think.

Also worth mentioning in that context is that USA didn't much care about Europe and only entered the war after Pear Harbor because they were no under threat themselves and needed to defend themselves. Once they engaged in the war, it made sense to cooperate with the countries that was already fighting Germany and their compatriots. Up until Pearl Harbor, there was support among the general American population of going to war to save Europe. Understandably enough.

Could the world in general and Europe in particular fight back Germany, Italy and Japan without help of USA? Possible, we will never know. But there is absolutely no doubt that USA's commitment made the war come to an end much sooner. Which is why the majority of Europeans that recollect the war are/were highly grateful towards USA, and the story is still told in depth at schools to this day for the same reason.

If it wasn't for "us" etc. etc. may be true but it sounds weird coming from someone that didn't serve, or wasn't even born at the time.

If not for Louis XVI of France, who lost his head over this by the way,... Americans would all be speaking English today...

I knew Louis XVI helped this fledging Country. But the major reason, was a mutual enemy.

Didn’t think he was beheaded because of his helping the USA. So I looked it up !

He was executed for treason by guillotine in 1793. After, (one of), the French revolutions in 1789.
Louis XVI sent money and material, after the Treaty of Alliance, in 1778.

So Bot, what would, YOU, call your statement: “…who lost his head over this by the way…” ?
