So Napoleon got his ass kicked back across Russia eh?
Are you saying that he was worthless compared to Russians?
No, I'll tell you the secret the Russians had: General Winter.

Psst. The Russians had to deal with the Winter too. Oh, and mobilize. And if it's so hard for the French to fight with long supply lines, how could the Russians do it fairly easily the other way?

You think many Americans today can face such hardships during catastrophic wars? We take shit for granted today. People back then in every nation fought for their lives - we happened to end up top dog after the war, but it could've easily gone any other way.

I don't know. People in NYC suddenly come together and help each other when they're in trouble.
As for the sabotaging, would Americans have the guts to do that? Definately. Would we have the weapons to fight back? Yes.

Then again the victors are the ones who write the history books, and many here appear to have been brainwashed

That might explain a lot considering the French have never been victorious then.

One day an Englishman, a Scotsman, and an Irishman walked into a pub together. They each bought a pint of Guinness. Just as they were about to enjoy their creamy beverage, three flies landed in each of their pints. The Englishman pushed his beer away in disgust. The Scotsman fished the fly out of his beer and continued drinking it, as if nothing had happened. The Irishman, too, picked the fly out of his drink but then held it out over the beer and yelled "SPIT IT OUT, SPIT IT OUT, YOU BASTARD!"
