Yeah, yeah, sure.. that was a coalition. But the air power that opened it, and the tanks that finished it, were american.
Oh right, so we didn't have any planes or tanks there then?

Stop being so arrogant.

No-one can deny that the US Army is by the richest and probably the most powerful but that doesn't mean they are the best at all they do.
