  1. I have HUGE respect for Simon, but sometimes he discusses stuff which he doesn't thoroughly understand. I'm still seething about his videos about the British bombing of Germany.

  3.  @sebastianforbes1  It would take too long to explain. I decline to post detailed replies which take 30 minutes to write and almost nobody will read. Sometimes I just let it go. I respect Simon, but sometimes he draws mistaken conclusions from the bare facts.

  4. I left a reply here earlier which has been deleted. According to the woke, cun sent ration cramps still exist in Britain today. They're the multistar hotels which are filled with engineers and concert pianists. (Creative 5pelling because I'm unsure of what the Al Gore rhythms dislike.)

  5. It worked in Malaya but not in Vietnam.

  6.  @whitelines3097  According to lefties, every multistar hotel which is filled with illegal my grunts is a concentration camp.

  7.  @LeslieBall-x5d  Yours is a clever reply! Sounding similar but wholly different. Like "laughter" and "slaughter".

  8.  @georgehetty7857  About the claim that the British dropped bombs on Afghan civilians in 1879 - I'm certain I saw a TV documentary about it in 1880. As the Afghan civilians fell into the sea, a British submarine, captained by Clement Attlee, surfaced nearby and machine gunned the survivors.

  9.  @georgehetty7857  Good question. Maybe designed by I K Brunel.. Also - it's ages since I last glimpsed your comments!

  10.  @neddyseagoon9601  Agreed. More soldiers died from disease in the American Civil War than died in battle. There was never a deliberate policy of generals to kill tens of thousands of their own soldiers. The horrific death rate of soldiers in Nurse Nightingale's Crimean hospital was down to well water being polluted by sewer water. Tea and coffee were assumed to be health-giving, only because the water had to be boiled before use. The 19th century's understanding of disease-prevention was unfit for purpose.
