I have not made many comments on here for reasons given very early on but since teribums seems to insist on bring me into it...

The war was necessary has now become That Great Britain viewed the war as one on necessity to protect its own national interests and to honour Treaty obligations.

That everyone supported it has now become That in general the British people supported the Government view and reading of the situation and backed the Government in the pursuit and prosecution of the war against Germany throughout the war.

That the British troops were well led has now become That in general compared to the other combatant powers the British, Commonwealth and Empire armies were well led.

I expect before long that machine guns will become tickling sticks, mustard gas will become happy juice and 17 million dead will become a host of golden daffodils.

You will get used to this, Guest, Dave. When faced with any opposition the usual tactics are abuse and a quick re-write of the rules. You will get used to it and realise that the only thing you can do is either get out of it altogether or just take the piss.
