Subject: RE: BS: Christmas Truce (1914)
"Britain had no choice but to resist the German onslaught?"
One of your historians said Britain "sleep-walked into war" - you said "all" modern historians agreed with you and have continually demanded that we produce one who doesn't - you have been given dozens.
"Jim just said, "I has been established and is now totally accepted that soldiers were persuaded and tricked into joining up""
They were and it is
They were promised "a land fit for heroes to live in' - they returned to twenty-one poverty, hunger deprivation, industrial strife, man against man, economic depression - and then another war.
They were also told world war one would be "a war to end all wars"
It took 21 years to establish that as a lie
What's not been established in those facts?
Britain "sleepwalked into the war, allowed Germany to re-arm, ignored the rise of 'conquered' Germany and criminalised those who attempted to stop Hiltler's rise to power
Can there be any greater betrayal than any of this?
You will not answer any of these FACTS but will continue to haggle over a battle you lost on day one by claiming non-statements by non-existent historians.
