I'm not sure you understand, I'm not "blaming" anyone specifically. The idiocy of the Europeans is well-known, but I was replying to someone claiming the Americans 'bailed us out'. The Entente might well have made peace after Russia left, or at least have lost the war, with terms quite probably as punitive as those of Versailles, but they didn't because the Americans were arriving.

It's like Ukraine, where European and American involvement just prolongs the war and leads to more death and destruction. Even though we're only "helping" (the arms industry).
