Dunno tho the gerrys seem to like their trance but it would probebly be either uber cheese or uber hard (dun dun dun dun dee-dun dun dun dun...).

Seriously though I think we should salute all the soldiers of all the countries. They were all just fighting for their country (except the Nazi fucks, but including the Wehrmacht). Put politics aside (I'll debate this point with anyone if they disagree).

There should be no hierarchy of victims/heros. All those soldiers on the sides of both the allies and axis who were killed sacrificed the same.

I think we can safely say that we KNOW who the villian was considering he TRIED TO TAKE OVER ALL OF EUROPE.

That's not even mentioning his influence over the eradication of so many Jewish, gypsies, crippled, etc... people.

The MAJORITY of the soldiers will not be held accountable for it, though, as can be seen when you allocate the Milgram Experiment.

Peace to those who fought in the war.

Indeed, a villian he and his cohorts were. However, their British enemy had already achieved part of what Hitler was trying to do in taking over large parts of foreign territory. So, it goes both ways. I'm not trying to defend Nazism, though I find equally dispicable British rule outside of Britain and Hitler's attempts to rule beyond Germany.

Too true donegalredneck:

quote:

Winston Churchill, as colonial secretary, was sensitive to the cost of policing the Empire; and was in consequence keen to exploit the potential of modern technology. This strategy had particular relevance to operations in Iraq. On 19 February, 1920, before the start of the Arab uprising, Churchill (then Secretary for War and Air) wrote to Sir Hugh Trenchard, the pioneer of air warfare. Would it be possible for Trenchard to take control of Iraq? This would entail *the provision of some kind of asphyxiating bombs calculated to cause disablement of some kind but not death...for use in preliminary operations against turbulent tribes.*

>>>NO JOKE<<<

Irony is a bitch eh???

Maybe if the Americans hadn't given up lookin they might have found some of OUR wmds in Iraq!

Haha yup might not be out of date yet

quote:

Churchill was particularly keen on chemical weapons, suggesting they be used "against recalcitrant Arabs as an experiment". He dismissed objections as "unreasonable". "I am strongly in favour of using poisoned gas against uncivilised tribes _ [to] spread a lively terror _" In today's terms, "the Arab" needed to be shocked and awed. A good gassing might well do the job.

quote:

"The Arab and Kurd now know", reported Squadron Leader Harris after several such raids, "what real bombing means within 45 minutes a full-sized village can be practically wiped out, and a third of its inhabitants killed or injured, by four or five machines which offer them no real target, no opportunity for glory as warriors, no effective means of escape."

Thats "Bomber Harris" by the way.

quote:

In his memoir of the crushing of the 1920 Iraqi uprising, Lieutenant-General Sir Aylmer L Haldane, quotes his own orders for the punishment of any Iraqi found in possession of weapons "with the utmost severity": "The village where he resides will be destroyed _ pressure will be brought on the inhabitants by cutting off water power the area being cleared of the necessaries of life". He added the warning: "Burning a village properly takes a long time, an hour or more according to size".
