Subject: RE: BS: Jingoism or Commemoration
"That Britain had no choice but to resist the German onslaught;"
Not the perogative of either Historians or TV presenters
"If that is true give an example."
You've been given examples over and over again - why the hell should I dig out more for you to ignore
You really aren't important enough with your quaint jingoism to put in any more time - you fake the attitudes of historians you haven't read and you ignore everything they have to say.
By the way - Paxman dealt with some of the military disasters of the war caused by shoddy leadership - the "wrong shell" fiasco by Kitchjener being a prime example.
Another case of your taking somebody out of context to back up your jingoism
