I think that's a 'strategic withdrawal'.

Maybe the French should give this to America?

Does that mean critisizing your government is unpatriotic?

Okay Filch, you're Butterfly status.

Name 'em Filch.

That's the beauty of America. We can criticize our government as much as we want. No repercussions.

Still waiting for my history lesson...

Shut up Marmite. Anyone who brags "to drunk to fuck" is an idiot.

Don't you know?

"Fight them over there, or, we'll have to fight them over here"

^^ So that's your defence, is it? Fucking gibbon.

You actually requested this thread, so don't be claiming that we are insulting you for being an American. This thread is about 'your' version of history.

I am English, but I don't shout it from the rooftops or rant on about good old blighty, I am intelligent enough to know what atrocities 'Great Britain' has done thoughout its history.

I am not proud. I am just a normal level headed human being who happened to be born in England.

Dan, try to make sense.

Historically, America needs a boogieman. Even if they have to invent one - which they've been known to do. Perpetual war for pertual business.

He is making perfect sense. You still never answered Marmite and Dan was simply pointing out your evasion of the above question with an absurd insult.

Good for you filch. You are an embarrasment to Churchill and Thatcher. But I'm sure Chamberlin would be very proud of you. If you're ashamed of your country, that's your problem.

Jesus, are you guys the dumbest people on the planet? Ive said that answer fivetimes.

"Why of course the people don't want war. Why should some poor slob on
a farm want to risk his life in a war when the best he can get out of
it is to come back to his farm in one piece? Naturally the common people
don't want war neither in Russia, nor in England, nor for that matter in
Germany. That is understood. But, after all, it is the leaders of the
country who determine the policy and it is always a simple matter to
drag the people along, whether it is a democracy, or a fascist
dictatorship, or a parliament, or a communist dictatorship. Voice or no
voice, the people can always be brought to the bidding of the leaders.
That is easy. All you have to do is tell them they are being attacked,
and denounce the peacemakers for lack of patriotism and exposing the
country to danger. It works the same in any country."

Reichsmarshall Herman Goering

You're an American so as you've suffered from one of the worst educational systems in the developed world, I'll make it easy.

Planning and executing wars of aggression is a war crime. This was established at Nuremberg. America - and its allies - are guilty of war crimes under the Nuremberg Charter. America is also guilty of violating the Hague and Geneva conventions, and the UN Charter, not to mention the laws of morality and decency.

They attacked an ally and friend, unprovoked. We told them for weeks to get out and they didn't. We kicked their ass. They signed an unconditional surrender andconstantly violated it. We asked the UN to enforce it and they did nothing, so we kicked their ass again. It' not rocket science you dumb asses. Jesus you're dense.

Thanks Dan for your dumb ass evaluation of our education. We are by far the leading super power in the world so I think our system works pretty well. By the way, are you using microsoft. Who created that asshole?

Polio vaccine?

Dan, You are an idiot who has no knowledge of Nuremeurg. What was Donitz or Speer sentence? I actually know the answer but you can Google it and pretend you do.

Nuremberg was simply a trail idiot. It had nothing to do with establishing war crimes. Obviously to any onewith a brain "War Crimes" had to take place before Nuremberg or there wouldn't have been any trial.

Agreed. N Korea "lurking" in the shadows is a joke.

The thing is, you see, we require a proving grounds for our new atomic death star laser weapons. And merely blasting away at friendly forces on a god-forsaken battlefield somewhere in the Urals or or in Macedonia once a decade just doesn't cut the mustard. We're very exacting in that regard.

We need targets. Preferably live targets. How do you think we maintain our dominance -- through charm and dashing good looks alone?

Donitz was 10 years and Speer 20. Just to save you some time.
