June 6, 1944. - NORMANDY - Three hundred French civilians were killed and thousands more wounded today in the first hours of America's invasion of continental Europe. Casualties were heaviest among women and children. Most of the French casualties were the result of artillery fire from American ships attempting to knock out German fortifications prior to the landing of hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops. Reports from a makeshift hospital in the French town of St. Mere Eglise said the carnage was far worse than the French had anticipated and reaction against the American invasion was running high.

"We are dying for no reason," said a Frenchman speaking on condition of anonymity. Americans can't even shoot straight. I never thought I’d say this, but life was better under Adolf Hitler."

The invasion also caused severe environmental damage. American troops, tanks, trucks and machinery destroyed miles of pristine shoreline and thousands of acres of ecologically sensitive wetlands. It was believed that the habitat of the spineless French crab was completely wiped out, threatening the species with extinction. A representative of Greenpeace said his organization, which had tried to stall the invasion for over a year, was appalled at the destruction, but not surprised. "This is just another example of how the military destroys the environment without a second thought, " said Christine Moanmore. “And it's all about corporate greed."

Contacted at his Manhattan condo, a member of the French government-in-exile who abandoned Paris when Hitler invaded said the invasion was based solely on American financial interests. "Everyone knows the President Roosevelt has ties to big beer," said Pierre LeWimp. “Once the German beer industry is conquered, Roosevelt's beer cronies will control the world market and make a fortune."

Administration supporters said America's aggressive actions were based in part on the assertions of controversial scientist Albert Einstein, who sent a letter to Roosevelt speculating that the Germans were developing a secret weapon, a so-called "atomic bomb." Such a weapon could produce casualties on a scale never seen before and cause environmental damage that could last for thousands of years. Hitler has denied having such a weapon and international inspectors were unable to locate such weapons even after spending two long weekends in Germany.

Shortly after the invasion began reports surfaced that German prisoners had been abused by Americans. Mistreatment of Jews by Germans at so-called "concentration camps" has been rumored but so far, remains unproven. Several thousand Americans died during the first hours of the invasion and French officials are concerned that uncollected corpses pose a public health risk. "The Americans should have planned for this in advance," they said. It's their mess and we don't intend to clean it up."

Spot-on, JALLEN!

This will be even better when people start quoting that as truth.

Who wouldn’t believe Christine Moanmore?

Then the removal of statues and exhuming of corpses will begin...

I'd laugh if I didn't know it were true

That’s a nice description of what the news would have been like if reported then as it is now—except for one thing:
The left has never given a fart about the slaughter of innocents, collateral damage, the environment, or the development or use of horrific weapons as long as the proper enemy is being engaged.

There are countless examples to point to, but how much genuine outrage is expressed by leftists even today about the horrors inflicted on all those things by every major Communist regime since their establishment? The Normandy invasion was directed at one of the left’s own, National Socialism, but that enemy then was still considered the greatest possible Evil because it was the most dangerous enemy of the rest of the left.

The ironic thing is that French in that part of the country are a lot more friendly towards Americans than the Parisians.

did you get that from a current 'History' book from the local public school?

that was great

You owe me about half a cup of coffee and a box of screen wipes!

"spineless French crab" and "Pierre LeWimp"...

BWAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!

That was spot on!
Like the NFL and the NBA Americans are finally catching on...
