Although I have no liking for the Nazi party of their supporters and with VERY good reason history is indeed recorded by the victors.

But both my now wife and I had family in Germany and Russia and those who survived taught us of life and death from the "other side"

It got both of us in a shed load of trouble at our schools as one might expect!

Hysterical fact more like. Britain did not start a world war. You like to defend Germany and Russia too much to be unbiased.

I could be wrong but I think that Philip's sisters married Nazi party members ... or maybe even SS.

Sorry old girl, best check on history. Britain and then France declared war on Germany. FACT.

Ah but perhaps he's not really Jewish.

So Todge, you believe Britain and France should not have declared war... should have left Hitler to expand as he wanted too.

Including continuing his ethnic cleansing unhindered?

I see you have resorted to repeating yourself rather than any ability to explain your view. You do this a lot when you don't have a valid point.

Given recent posts that would not surprise me.

I'm wondering that. Some of the things he comes out with, aside from his Yiddish tongue twisters .. seems odd.

You're not wrong. All three of them were.

Now I didn't say or imply that I believed that Britain shouldn't have declared war, just that Britain DID.

Nor that the Nazis should have been allowed to go into other countries because of their demand for Lebensraum or even to reclaim territory taken under the shameful Treaty of Versailles.

As for ethnic cleansing, because it resulted in industrialised murder that was so far beyond the pail as to be indescribably totally wrong.
