"Sorry, I withdraw that quote."
Too late, too late, the maiden cried.
What kind of eejit are you, using a quote to prove a point one minute then madly back-pedaling when it doesn't suit your particular like of jingoism
The quote comes from a valid historical site 'The Western Front Association'

"The Western Front Association (WFA) was formed with the aim of furthering interest in The Great War of 1914-1918. We also aim to perpetuate the memory, courage and comradeship of all those on all sides who served their countries in France and Flanders and their own countries during The Great War.
Established in 1980 by noted military historian John Giles, the WFA has grown over the years to some 6,000 members worldwide. Please see the Branches Information section for details of your nearest WFA branch.
Through the work of the Association we do not seek to justify or glorify war. We are not a re-enactment society, nor are we commercially motivated. We are entirely non-political. The object of the Association is to educate the public in the history of The Great War with particular reference to the Western Front.
Applications for membership are warmly welcomed from anyone of a like mind.
If you would like to learn more, please look through our website. If there is any information on joining you cannot find here, please contact the Membership Office.
The Western Front Association is a Registered Charity No. 298365"

Are you seriously suggesting that it is not qualified to make a statement on the subject it is dedicated to.
You really are a moron.
