Bread and circuses. Ended well, so history relates.

Horrific. HAMAS and the death cult embracing society they have created are <deleted> savages. Beyond redemption, utterly.

All pertinent for teenage girls travelling, here, or anywhere in the world.

And now we hear (BBC) that the adult females remains was not that of the children's mother. <deleted> savages!

I don't think there is any solution. Seal the place off, and leave them to their savagery. The culture of Hamas, the society they have created is frankly irredeemable. They have created an utterly savage, dystopian society, which reveres a death cult, and trumpets that it intends to continue to slaughter in the pursuit of that cult, because that is the focus of their existence. Fine, seal them off and let them continue.

You really ought to concentrate on the details - it wasn't a week ago that you announced that you had binned Mrs Smith! I suspect that you have been committing your latest fantasy to paper - or rather to your computer! Do be careful you don't get repetitive strain injury in your wrist - it could ruin your sex life!

There have been times where some of us have been sceptical of the United States Air Force ability to find places on a map, especially during the excitement of dropping bombs!

Oh, I don't know! 😔😄

Trumps administration and it's policies are built upon lies, driven by lies, screened by lies and perpetrate lies. They come thick and fast, the bigger the better - " Ukraine started the war against Russia".

So we can take that as a "yes" then?

"Trump’s Proposal for Gazan Relocation makes perfect sense". It makes perfect sense if you are a multi billionaire property developer crony of Mr Trump, who is possibly about to be handed a blank canvass, with of course lots of investment funds, to build a " new middle eastern riviera"! Incidentally a few hundred kilometres north up the coast lies Lebanon - once referred to as the "Riviera of the Levant". That ended well didn't it?

Actually I suspect that you are sitting in a squalid bedsit in Poole counting the days until you can afford another return flight to Thailand and another week on the back streets of Pattaya - meanwhile passing the time posting this <deleted>!

Anyway, the "nutter on the bus" (you know, the person you see advancing up the aisle, and hope and pray doesn't sit next to you), is in charge now!

Well, apart from killing children, perhaps causing blindness and deafness, and being totally preventable by vaccination.

You can't hack a 2B pencil attached to the voting booth with a bit of string, and paper ballots.🤔 Polls close, sealed ballot boxes transported by police vehicle to a local counting centre, votes are counted, results collated and announced. Accredited observers are permitted at counts, to observe and not interfere. Oh, and anyone turning up with their Walmart gun counter special offer hung around their neck, to "ensure the integrity of the election" is arrested and banged up until the whole process is done and dusted, and then prosecuted.

Well yes, certainly for Korea, Iraq (twice) and Afghanistan! I believe we were asked to contribute to Vietnam, but a staff study concluded that the (North) Vietnamese were doing rather well on their own!

I think it is sufficient to label him ( the Parish Councilor as a see you next Tuesday!

Indeed Bob, there is even a chap who posts from Dorset. He uses multiple identities but doesn't fool anyone.

Rereading this thread, this statement rather leaps off the page at one. American troops began arriving in numbers in France at the beginning of 1918. They initially were occupied in training and preparation for war, remember that until 1917 the American Army was very small. The draft introduced in 1917 brought millions of men into the army, but they had to be trained, both individually and then as the units, Battalions, Regiments (brigades) and Divisions they were sent to. They did not enter full scale combat until mid 1918. They took part with, and to a certain degree replaced, the utterly exhausted and largely "fought out" French formations on the central and southern sectors of the Front. The massive German offensive, largely made possible by the transfer of troops and material from the east following the collapse of the Russians in 1917, fell on the British, in Northern France and Belgium; who together with (whisper it quietly) the Canadian's fought it to a standstill, counterattacked, drove back and comprehensively defeated the Germans. This crushing defeat, together with the prospect of much larger American armies joining battle in the winter of 1918 and early 1919, are what led Germany to ask for an armistice, which ended the fighting on November 11th 1918. It is not the case that the Germans were winning until the Americans arrived; it was the case that their arrival, and the impending arrival of many more, persuaded the Germans that they could not hope to recover from the defeats of late summer and early autumn 1918.

What are you wittering on about - Field Marshal Haig commanded the British Army on the Western Front in the First World War. He died in 1928.

By you guys, do you mean the British or the Danes? If you mean the British then your question reveals stunning ignorance, such that it is not worth dignifying with an answer! If you mean the Danes then 29 Danish ships took part in the invasion, one, the "Aero", transported troops and armoured vehicles to Omaha Beach. Individual Danish aircrew flew with the RAF during the invasion, individual Danish soldiers served with the British Army.

Whisper it quietly, Denmark was liberated by the British and (horror of horrors for MAGA) the Canadians!

Duplicate post.

I know Denmark well, it can be accused of things but certainly not exploitative colonialism. It did step up to the plate and took part in the American led campaigns in Iraq and Afghanistan, some of there young men and women died. How many divisions do they have? Wasn't it Stalin who originated that quote?

Or possibly, "Europe finds a lot to take the piss out of with JD!"
