"The only "new" evidence to have emerged over the last twenty years is from the soldiers ("liars") diaries - and they are only available to a few people - no new evidence has been discoled from them and it wouldn't matter if it has - you've told us they are liars."

Oh dear more Jom "Made Up Shit"

Where did you get that nugget about the only source of new evidence in the past twenty years has come from soldiers diaries?

You can call soldiers liars if you like I certainly haven't - Or are you back to your old pal Tommy Kenny again - the old man you cannot even prove was EVER a soldier because of your slapdash method of gathering data for research - you were too bloody idle to get verification that he was ever in the Army - you cannot tell what Regiment he served in, where he served, or in which actions he fought. YOU tell us ever changing stories of Military Policemen carrying out summary executions of British soldiers saying that Tommy told you all about this yet Tommy cannot name any of the men he saw shot, they would of course have been Tommy's comrades in arms, the lads he trained and served alongside, yet he cannot remember their names? Incredible and totally unbelievable. There have been hundreds of memoirs and autobiographies written by soldiers who served on the western front - strange that none of them mention anything about any such summary executions.

It is you Jom who depict those who volunteered to fight for their country as dullards, simpletons and fools, too stupid to know what they were doing - I really would have liked to see you try and tell that to either of my Grandfathers - they'd have lifted your head clear off your shoulders.

So far not one of you has provided any link to any historian who specialises in the study of the Great War who contradicts the three points originally brought to our attention by Keith A - NOT ONE.

Keep digging boys - carry-on.
