As a matter of fact... yes they are viewed as liberators... and when I said we liberated europe... I didn't mean to say we did it by ourselves... however, I doubt that it could have been accomplished without our help. We lost alot of American lives in that fight too, you know. My basic point was that greedy war profiteers don't represent the majority of Americans... I also don't want to minimize the losses that the Soviets incurred... which dwarf what the US lost... they lost over 24 million people in WWII. In the end, we lost roughly the same amount of soldiers as civilians that died from Czechoslovakia.
