people may see we can discuss without arguing, occasionally ;) Whose disapproval are you afraid of? It looks like that Pandora's box has a rest and is going to stay closed for a while. :) I don't mind who approves or disapproves of me here, they can make their own minds up. It's only an Internet ch...

Speedy, I've just watched some documentary about War in Europe. There is an episode about Dunkirk in this British film, as well. According to the film, weapons of BEF was much worse than German's ones - some armored vehicles against panzers. It proved that not only Russians were incapable on the in...

They probably didn't have a cross handy.

By the way, I forgot to say, the Russian T34 tank was excellent, tough and reliable and there were many of them.

This film is about War in Europe. At that we were allies. Certainly I know who was, is and will be the main enemies of Russia. Now I doubt whether we needed such allies. Americans? Yes? Brits? Definitely not. As for tanks. Yes, Tiger was almost impossible to destroy by usual tanks. The majority of ...

About the ' one rifle to three russian troops' , I will research that better. I have certainly seen and heard it a few times. Let's see the reality of it. This reality concerns the First World War. Probably it's the root of this urban legend. By 1943 we produces more automatic guns than Germans did...

I think Tiger was pretty unreliable. Also as the war went on the quality of German steel deteriorated and their tanks were not as indestructible as before. Tiger was a very good tank hull down, in defense mode only. Panther was a different beast. I think I'm right. If a detachment of T-34's came aga...

I see most of the people here skip breakfast either due to lack of time or just laziness. And some arabs, syrians and lebanese just survive on coffee and cigarettes till dinner. (as per my office demographics) How many of you are eating a proper breakfast? I take cafe latte with milk with bred and ...

What did you did during the 1 night in Bangkok? Isn't it strange that it sounds like Bang KOK---take out a K and add a C and another C. Naughty. I was there for a business trip, but during the day I also went to see the Golden Palace, and night time I stayed in my hotel alone, very unusual for me t...

Dude, why do you keep on dragging up ridiculously old threads. Let them die already. Hi Chocs. I have wondered about this myself. Is a thread no longer valid just because it's old? If someone brings a new thought then maybe it can be revived. And at least it shows that people are reading through th...

I am not an Asian lady and as some already know I get upset if mistaken as such but may ALLAH protect these Thai, Chinese, Filipina or any other woman for the horny thoughtless men who think with their lower head then upper head and hearts.

the nazis U boat is a great treat during the World War until the US made the submarines. This is only correct in small part. U-boats were mainly a threat to merchant shipping, the war could have been ended quickly if Allied forces had not been able to arrange re-supply. Cargo ships sailing alone we...

The photo is clearly not about marriage at all. It's about expression of love. You can debate until the cows come home about the difference between the two, and whether love has to be accompanied by marriage, but what on earth is wrong with showing affection in public, in a nice way. It's just twist...

If you are Muslim it probably doesn't matter for you, but smoking while drinking strong alcohol (scotch, brandy) is a very big risk of mouth cancer. Mixing bourbon with cola is a very big risk of terrible headache next day. I wonder who invented such a slop as "Wild Turkey". I tried a few...

My last word. British troops were fighting all over the world. What does it matter that our resources were stretched and the US had unlimited resources? Of course one of our main contributions was our intellience, and I don't just mean brain power. At the start of World War II, British ASDIC (SONAR)...

Speedhump

Yes I guess I was commenting on your comment about the photo, and the subsequent discussions. Yes I agree, in any society where one s*x is mostly treated as inferior, or as a possession, marriage will naturally last longer as only one party really has the power. Women are even told that in the eyes ...

Once Hitler understood that the British would never join him then he fought us. Before that it is quite clearly true that his admiration of Britain was the reason why the Dunkirk evacuation proceeded with minimal casualties. However once Britain had left all her equipment on the French beaches there...

It's unfortunate that you follow the blind Russian view (that the rest of the world does not agree with) that Russia and only Russia won the War against Facism. You only echo your madman Putin, known more for his aggression than his intelligence.

http://russianfatcat.blogspot.com/2007/09/stalins-tipping-point.html Any honest account of the battle for Moscow would undermine the Soviet story line of "The Great Patriotic War." Those sanitized versions, now reinforced in the era of President Vladimir Putin, portray Joseph Stalin as a m...

....much of the story of how close Moscow came to falling—a defeat that would likely have transformed the course of the war—has been obscured by decades of deliberately distorted history. Now it's a story that can be told. Russia got lucky, because the Nazi army was divided between several fronts. I...
