No, they weren't. Russia was on NO ONE'S side. They signed a treaty with Germany (can't think of the name) saying that as long as Germany didn't go on their soil, Russia wouldn't get involved. Germany attacked them for their wheat and oil supplies breaking the treaty, therefore Russia joined the allies and led them to victory.
I have to intervein here... Russia was allied with Germany, and they invaded Poland from the East while Germany invaded Poland from the West. Then later Hitler ordered Operation Barbarossa and invaded Russia.

The British and French were getting creamed until US involvement.

And the Americans were getting creamed by the Japanese for the first 6 months after Pearl Harbor too.
France was completely conquered, and Britain was getting creamed. But no, the Americans were not getting creamed for the first 6 months after Pearl Harbor. The PH attack crippled most of our Pacific defenses, but the US quickly went on the offensive. If anything, it was a stalemate until Midway. The War in Europe started in 1939, and the US didn't go in until 1942. The Germans were creaming the British and already bombed the hell out of London. It was only a matter of time before a ground invasion.

EVERY allie had a substantial role, but without Russia, the Axis Powers would've won.
Seriosuly, research WWII. I know this subject better than anything; without Russia, the US and Britain would have defeated the Axis Powers. Without the US, there would have been NO Western offensive. Without the US, Russia and Britain wouldn't have defeated the Axis Powers.
