Poll: [If] England and America just went to war...

[Kristoffer Mattila]

As a true Swede I chose "Neither side and remain neutral", though tbh I'd root for England.

I'd second that, but officially, i must not take sides

 

[The Unworthy Gentleman]

In light of everything, the US having broken all the UN and NATO rules, the countries of the EU and UN (if I'm not mistaken) would be forced to run to the side of Britain, whether it be with financial aid or military aid.

 

[Mantonio]

Definitely England.

Seeing peoples lives and infrastructure ruined by over-zealous soldiers in some middle-eastern country is bad enough, but on my own doorstep? I'd grab my spade and make some punji stakes.

What I'm saying is, America seems to have a habit of creating more enemies than it kills.

 

[zehydra]

Being an American I would take the opportunity to launch a revolution in the US while the army was overseas, to prevent such a war from ever occurring.

 

[Insomnus]

First we would need to crowbar Cameron's tongue out of Obama's arse, then I would do my part as a true Englishman and send a stern letter to the Times.

 

[k-ossuburb]

I'm British, but I'd go with America. It's a war we simply just cannot win and I'm pretty sick of the state of this place anyway. If we can get rid of the monarchy and fix the political system I'll be fine with it. But right now, it's a damned mess.

Although, it's not like America is doing any better right now either, so I'll probably sod off to Australia or Germany and ignore the entire thing. We (USA and U.K.) both suck in our own way.

 

[Knusper]

Being English, I guess I would quite like England to win, but don't expect me to fight against the largest army in the world with the biggest nuclear weapons arsenal.

 

[BrownGaijin]

Snip

I am going to side with my country, however I'm also going to add this little tidbit:

The worst terms that I would ever see these two battle it out is through a beer chugging contest, followed by a beer brawl, then finishing off with an after party consisting of more beer.

You Canadians can come and join the party.

 

[emeraldrafael]

Lets See. I'm American, so I'm pretty sure I know where my country's loyalties lie. XD

But thinking about it from an outside view. Canada cant really afford to side with either side when they're so close ot the US and one of their biggest allies is Britain, France hates both, Germany... toss up? Ireland would probably side with America, and we all know how good the IRA are at what they do.

I dont really know anyone who would side with anyone, outside of Ireland, just cause if the US is your ally, odds are Britain is too, and vice versa.

 

[Tanner The Monotone]

I'll side with the nation that has the largest air force in the world, the infrastructure to put those planes over any patch of dirt on this planet within 24 hours, men and women capable of getting them there, and the ordinace to level whatever the fuck is underneath those planes.


In short, sorry England, you're the 51st state. We'll leave Top Gear alone, though.

Agreed. It wouldn't really be a fair fight.

Maybe Germany would help. You know, finish what they started in WW 2

 

[SilentCom]

I wouldn't want either countries to fight wars against each other but if it did happen somehow I wouldn't have much because I live in America. It might also depend on where the war is fought. If it's on American soil then I would have to get involved otherwise my home and people I know could get destroy. If it's elsewhere I would probably protest the war depending on the circumstances in which it started.

 

[LordOfTheDance]

Personally I think its time for the Brits to take it the French!

 

[ayuri]

I'm Canadian so America would threaten us and we are the queens slaves.

 

[iLikeHippos]

Well, since England tried to take over us Swedes during WWII (Which, funny enough, the nazis saved us from) and America tries to take over everyone constantly, I'd remain neutral and gloat at both of you. For shame, US and UK.

 

[beniki]

Better not go to Oz if you don't like the monarchy. That's still part of the Crown... and I'd rather be a subject in a kingdom than a mere citizen of a country. Sounds far cooler, and there's the off chance of a knighthood, which is just all kinds of awesome!

As a true Brit, I'd like to support my country, but America would steam-roller us without European and ex-Commonwealth support. But I'd still support the realm from my little flat in Japan, and would lament the lack of proper pies and fish and chips when we lose.

Pretty much this, but I am certain Top Gear would be ruined. Clarkson, Hammond, and May replaced by some US fools who know not how to be funny (so basically replace all the British Top Gear with the crummy US Top Gear).
Plus we are 2 for 2 in wars with England, and are 2 for 2 in wars with England (we beat them twice, we help them twice).

I just hope none of the castles or medieval museums get destroyed in the fighting.

 

[Subarashii]

Being Scottish id be neutral-until forcibly drafted.

But if you check your history the best airforce around 70 years ago already tried that and failed.
And at least Top Gear is safe

 

[HotFezz8]

...who do you think your country would side with? Assuming both countries are equally at fault for the cause of the war.

This is a question that actually kinda plagues me as a Canadian. We're kinda naturally obligated to side with England because we're still under their power, but we're also right next to the United States and we rely on each other way more than we rely on England. And I also know that Canada wouldn't just sit there neutral, because that'd just piss off both of them.

edit: added another option to the poll

what a daft question, if england and the us went to war that would be over so quickly it wouldn't be funny. put it this way the US marine corp is larger than the entire UK armed forces...

 

[Wuvlycuddles]

Well, i'm Welsh, i'm sure we can strike a deal with Yankees

Seriously though, if nukes start flying both countries are buggered, England may not have as many but the second those missiles start heading towards Europe i think the Russians might have something to say about it

Also, if you pick a fight with Britain, you'll have to deal with the Ozzies, Australians equipped with boomerangs and kangaroos with explosives? You'll be moidered by those crazy bastards!
