Yes, I am sure the 40% of voters in Ireland who do not vote on a regular basis would be surprised at how consistent I am.....But, I am an Irish citizen living in a foreign Country.....How is that for an excuse..LOL

38 thousand Frenchmen fighting in the German Army died.....That cannot be excused or denied.....

The Finnish army formed part of the siege of Leningrad.....Where over a million Russian civilians died of starvation.....I await your excuse....

In my eyes no war can be excused although I can understand people defending themselves.
That many French is unforgivable even though they weren't invaded till the Brits declared war & were first to act.
How many Paddy's fought in WW 1 even though the lads back home were trying to get rid of Brits when Churchill sent in the Black & Tans.
The Finns I can understand as they hated the Rooskies.
Russia has always wanted Finland & tried but got their arses handed to them.

Germany and France declared War on Germany under the same agreement with Poland.,....
On the third of September 1939, Britain first and France a few hours later...

That day a German Submarine sunk a British Liner, 112 civilians died.....Some where Americans...It is said that incident decided American Help and later Participation in the War in Europe....

It is said that The US President said that day. in private...''I wish I could go to War against Germany this moment, but my Country would not allow it''

Trump on his way to China at the moment.....This could end up as the most important meeting in recent times......Anywhere...

There are lot of photos and Newsreels of the proud German Army marching through Paris after the Fall of France....The best known ones are those of the German 6th Army all dressed in their best Uniforms looking like they own the World....

There are are also newsreels of the Same 6th Army unarmed and dressed in bundles of rags marching out of Stalingrad 3 years later.....90 odd thousand of them, all that was left of the quarter of a million who went there
Only a few short month before Hitler announced to cheers that his Army had reached the Volga...Less than six thousand of those bundles of rage returned to Germany after the War...

Only 10% percent of those that surrendered were Commissioned Officers....90% of those that returned were Officers....

Trump and 20 of America's top businessmen heading for China.......Maybe they will buy their Christmas decorations there and get them flown home free.....

to keep our great Armies at bay......
