Thread Name: History and mythology of WW1
Subject: RE: History and mythology of WW1
Your own 'honesty' on what your less-than-half-a-dozen historians have said,

More than that but about six who are very well known.
Reminder, you can not find a single one who believes your version!

your claims that nobody has challenged your statements,

No historian has. The statements are those of historians!

your cxlaim to have read books yet have refused to respond to contradictions,
What contradictions?
I have been reading books about this all my life!

your whittling down your entire support for every single aspect of the war to 'I have only ever claimed three points,

The war is a huge subject. I have only ever defended those three points which you have utterly failed to refute!

your manipulation of what is acceptable from you and what is acceptable from the rest of us,

I have no idea what you are talking about! Have you?

your constant claims of "all" or "the majority" of historians backing your archaic attitude to this bloodbath,

ARCHAIC!!!! Theses are the considered and researched findings of all the historians!
Remember, you have failed to find a single one outside the consensus!

your refusal to respond to what some of us believe to be the major points of the war

Who cares what random know-nothings might believe?
Just political whims from empty heads!
Of course I do not respond to such ignorant twaddle!
I read history books to learn my history!
Normal people do!!

- and then claiming you already have...... amply bears out your veracity in these discussions.

Thank you at least for acknowledging my veracity.
I believe I have responded to all your points but again, if I have missed one, put it up and I will again.

You persistently lie and distort and put stuff out of context.

Blatant lie! Each quote came with a link to PROVE it was in context.
You produced no quotes at all. You couldn't.

You have never made your case on any of these threads yet you persistently claim to have "won"
I just said that if you argue about history against the history books, you lose.

You ignore what people say then claim they haven't said anything.

You have found no single historian for me to ignore!
You have not said anything except from inside your own empty head.
No scholarship from you.
