"After 18 months it collapsed? "
It did in Britain Cookie - I thought that's what we were talking about.
No idea what happened in those countries - what on earth has it to do with the opic on hand apart from it being another rat-hole to hide in.
IT COLLAPSED IN BRITAIN - OR IS THIS ANOTHER URBAN MYTH?
Banck to th pot and pan's I'm afraid Mr Woodencock.
The war was a defence of colonies - a family dispute over who got to milk the poorer nations, or in Belgium's case, who got to slaughter and hack pieces off them - may not b immoral to you Tebbitites, but pretty sick to the rest of us.
If the war was inevitable it was due to the predatory nature of colonialism - that it why a generation of British youth were sacrifed because they had been sent to slaughter the same genration of German youth who they did not know and had no quarrel with - pretty obscene, doncha think - my mistake, of course you don't, otherwise you wouldn't be putting up such efforts to tell us how noble it all was.
Can I smell burning bacon - sorry for distracting you fromk your work - back to your stove.
