Now I can say that there were meant french colonies in North Africa (?) and that that person who told us the board had written the book - the battle for North Africa, looking from Russia. He wrote smth about divisions etc if i find i,ll bring them here.
As for me i'd prefer all the nations be honest in cooperation but the life as i know it don't seem to me so optimistic. And I was a boy when heard firstly that USA and UK prolongued to open the Second Front without really objective obstacles - from the film ofe one American Commy, named "The Unknown War"? 20 series.
Hoping to be back, grateful for your answers
It would really be a boon if you read some decent history books, or failing that, seriously browsing what we have been writing in this forum for the last few years... You have to learn how to distinguish History from Propaganda.

May I ask where you are from?

Well, Martin, it could be argued that the US did retain a lot of colonies under the Neo-Colonialism form but that would be a long discussion that would end with me floating on the river belly down
