The assertion this thread is talking about is, "Europe and America made sure USSR won that war". How many casualties Europe and America took in the course of doing so is a separate question. The US and Britain had competent leaders and an advantageous strategic position, so they were able to make sure the USSR won the war at a cost of relatively few US and British casualties.

Nope. They helped to tip the balance into the USSR's favor with a little bit of help. The USSR made sure it won.

Tell me, why didn't they 'make sure' France won? [0]
