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.

@Cierzo: You really do have a slanted view of the world, you said we got into the war for the banks. Not true, Germany tried to get Mexico to start a war with us. We broke the German code That's why we went to war.
