While we did join in to WW2 and kick some serious butt, it is doubtfull we would have won against Germany solo if we did not have a friendly base (England) to jump off from. It is also doubtful that an invasion would have worked if Hitler had not gone after Russia and created a second front.
It was a group effort on the Allies part, and a lot of people died for their countries regardless of their side.
Our contributions to WW2 does not give the US the right to tell other countries how to conduct their affairs. Our interference in outher countries has led to things like the Iranian hostage taking.
