I Am Tired of America

I am tired of Americans saying how Europeans should be grateful to them because America 'saved' our continent in both World Wars.
Woodrow Wilson decided American intervention in WWI only because in case of a German victory, American banks would never recover the huge loans given to British and French banks.
In WWII American joined war in Europe when German defeat seemed likely to happen, out of fear that the USSR could take over the continent.

America was just defending its interests. A legitimate stand, of course. But we Europeans have nothing to be thankful of.It was not a favour.

@MasterLee: we did call. we called for three years in both world wars before the land of the free and the home of the brave answered. how long did America have to call before we joined you in the first Gulf war, the second assault on Iraq and the war on terror?
