Mr. Churchill is proud of Britain’s stand alone, after France had fallen and before America entered the War.
Could he not find in his heart the generosity to acknowledge that there is a small nation that stood alone not for one year or two, but for several hundred years against aggression; that endured spoliations, famines, massacres in endless succession; that was clubbed many times into insensibility, but that each time on returning consciousness took up the fight anew; a small nation that could never be got to accept defeat and has never surrendered her soul?
Mr. Churchill is justly proud of his nation’s perseverance against heavy odds. But we in this island are still prouder of our people’s perseverance for freedom through all the centuries. We, of our time, have played our part in the perseverance, and we have pledged our selves to the dead generations who have preserved intact for us this glorious heritage, that we, too, will strive to be faithful to the end, and pass on this tradition unblemished.

Russian man power and Yankee manufacturing.
It’s no wonder Britain and America are running rings around us when it comes the vaccine.
They were. But they knew it was coming and let it happen to get into the war.
It was lucky that the 4 air craft carriers weren’t in the port at the time. “Lucky” 
The Russian strategy of wasting German bullets by running men against them paid off eventually
Class acts
What I always found odd about the whole thing was the financial backers were the same for both sides.
War is profitable and all that.
Had Hitler bided his time it would have been him and the Allies vs Russia
9/11 inside job
Give one lad the bullets and one lad the gun and send them off into the firing line. If they turn around shoot them yourself. Sure how could you beat a group with that little regard for their own people’s lives in a war
To win war, you gotta become war
No 9/11 was funded by the Saudis, that’s the cover up there
Still not the reason anyone went to war with them…
If you have enough ‘volunteers’ it’s unbeatable
Not at all sure. They all hated the Jews as well. There was a boat with three thousand Jews fleeing for their lives, turned away from nearly every port in the World because nobody wanted them.
Dumped them on the poor Palestinians then for a finish.
