1941? That was the last minute of WWII? Are you high? Are you familiar with the continents of Asia, Africa, and/or Oceania? Or does your knowledge of geography and history end at the borders of the noble European continent?
The Soviet Union didn't even join the Allies until June of 1941. And they did a hell of a lot more to win the war than any of the western European Allies, that's for damn sure.
Not to mention the vast economic and logistical aid given prior to entering the war. Not to mention the Marshall Plan. Not to mention the Berlin Airlift. It's not a misguided belief, the US has verifiably used its economic and military power to protect the interests of western European allies throughout the past century.
