That's the theory of it true but there's no shortage of Bible bashers in the likes of Texas and Arizona as well as up the East Coast. To say they're mainly in the Mid West is a sweeping and frankly erroneous notion, they're all over the place. The basis is through the Baptists who tend to be in...

Interseting point that, they got badly chewed up on the two beaches they attacked, the situation wasn't helped at all by the fact that the American commanders turned their noses up at the many beach clearing (mines, wire etc.) devices that the Britsih developed as they felt that they wouldn't...

Well said Juan, we should never forget the efforts and bloodshed of all of the Commonwealth countries, Australia, New Zealand, Canada, South Africa no to mention the Indian sub continent (some of whom, dare I say it ? Were muslems). There's also the Gurkas plus others. The all were involved from...

That's true as they were pitched against battle hardened Panzer troops when they invaded Italy in 1943. They got very badly chewed up. Mind you we surrendered SIngapore to a smalller invading Japanese force who were about to pull back as their supply lines were too stretched. The Russinas got...

You're a bit of an idiot aren't you ? For a start I have no idea why you have in your head that I love America, I don't and for several very good reasons. I've also spent a lot of tiime there which I doubt that you have. Nobody has said that WW II was won by the Americans, well except you that...

It's pretty clear that you don't have much knowledge about WWII. As it was had Hilter not made some serious blunders when his armies were withinn 11 miles of Moscow then the Germans would have won. Some of the aforementioned Lend Lease ships were used to protect convoys to Russia that supplier...

Conversely we would have capitualted and not honoured treaties with Poland and so on. We couldn't have even considered starting a cold front without the Americans, whether you like it or not without there involvement Hilter probably would have overcome Russia and we would have become a sattelite...

Hmm, ever heard of lend lease ? Without those clapped out American warships Hilter's submarines would have starved us out long before 1943.

I have to say that I thought Catholics were the ultimate hypocrits untill I met some of the Bible Belt nutters. Frankly they let their god jusify just about anything rather like the average Muslim extremist. Tragically far too many Americas put too much stock in the Bible. As it is I am...

Americans from the Southern States take great offence to being called a Yank. To them its akin to a Scotsman being called English. As far as they're concerned Yanks are the ones who fought on the Union side in their Civil war. I don't know where is leaves some people though as Oklahoma for...

Did the same with Chamberlin with the 1938 Munich agreement.

I actually went on a clay pigeon shoot over Christmas and I have to say that its easier than it seems to shoot somebody. The idea is to follow the clay as it leaves the trap and pull the trigger at the appropriatetime. I was okay but one or two others had near misses as some of the other...
