How did Britain\'s guarantees work out for Poland?
Not well, as by the time the war ended Britain was in no position to

It took massive campaigning by Churchill to alert the USA to the basic
fact that Stalin wanted do do wjat Hitler had failed to do - incorprate

Johnson couldn\'t even help himself but he egged on Zelensky. Sunak is
continuing the tradition.

Once again, we see a danger that the USA does not, by and large. Russia
under Putin has reawakened its desire to be grand master of Europe, has
massively influenced and controlled and helped the development of the EU
towards a centralised bureaucratic state, such as Russia espouses, and
has compromised bribed and blackmailed politicians throughout Europe
(and indeed the USA) to further its geopolitical interests.
Its main enemies are those European NATO states such as Poland, Estonia,
Latvia, Lithuania, and indeed Finland, who know exactly what it is like
to be part of its Empire.
Germany of course was pretty much run by Russia under Frau Merkel, the
Russian supported (allegedly ex-) communist. It is in a very difficult
situation, as is Hungary.
The West at the level of real geopolitics has understood that Ukraine
represents an opportunity to essentlally de-Nazify and de-militarise
Russia, at remarkably little cost.
They supply the obsolescent surplus military kit, and Ukraine supplies
the casualties.
Its all very well to raid the scrap bin for military hardware about to
be scrapped anyway, and sell it to Ukraine, and the utter failure of
Russian technology has ruined *their* export market for arms.

But of course the West is still riddled with people who are in Russia\'s
pay, or being blackmailed even if they think they are not, who parrot
the Kremlin propaganda lines that:

Zelensky and Ukraine are corrupt
Ukraine is part of Russia
Why should the West spend all that money defending it?
Its none of our business.
They will Thcweam and Thcweam until they are Thick and drop Nukes on Alaska.
Ukraine cannot win
Russia cannot lose.

Etc. Etc.
Those of us who spend time examining the online trolls are utterly
aware of the instructions given to the on-line trolls and to Russian
fifth columnists in the Western media, as these spun narratives start
first on the Russian state propganda channels and then appear all over
the western media, and in the mouths of US politicians.

Russia has been gaslighting the West for decades, supporting and
purchasing or blackmailing politicians in all parties, media influencers
and radical organizations. With the sole object of creating dissension
hatred and polarisation.

It doesn\'t support the left or the right. It supports a civil war
between them.

I bet you thought you did it all by yourselves.

In reality however, it made the fatal mistake of believing its own
bullshit, and finally overreached itself and is now facing annihilation.

What will be interesting, is how much of the modern politically correct
\'woke\' bullshit and EcoBollox, will get annihilated with it, once
starved of funding...

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rationing_in_the_United_States

My parents kept chickens and also had a vegetable garden. Eggs or
chickens could be bartered for sugar and other commodities.

One of the family stories told how my father had acquired a 5 gallon
tin of motor oil through barter. All was good until my mother went to
the garage one day and saw a rat sitting on the can. She hated mice and
rats although they went hand in hand with raising chickens. Being a
self- sufficient woman she got her 16 gauge and blew the rat to hell,
along with most of the oil can.

Footnote: although it has almost vanished today a 16 gauge was
considered a ladies shotgun; my father and I used 12s.

16 gauge? Is that like a 20 bore? Oh, its a 16 bore. So halfway between
a 12 and a 20...or a serious gun and a \'rook rifle\'

The 20 bore, as you say, has become very popular in the US.

https://www.gundogmag.com/editorial/the-return-of-the-16gauge-shotgun/
385243

That article claims it was the skeet shooting rules that favored the 20.
Skeet wasn\'t popular where I grew up and was seen as a bit snobby like
golf and the 20 bore wasn\'t considered to be useful for hunting. Some kids
would start with a .410 but my father taught me with a 12.
20 bores and 410s are, in the UK, regarded as excellent vermin shotguns
as the carry is even shorter than a 12 bore and you don\'t need the range
or stopping power for rats, pigeons and squirrels, and also because of
licencing being hard for .22 and other rifles, moderaletely powerful air
rifles with IR sights are now the favourite for the midnight rat
shooting brigade.

I\'ve shot a few things with my .22 air rifle, but its (accurate) range
is at best 30metres.

Such hunting as is done, is with shotguns (never repeating, only two
barrels max) and very occasionally by licensed hunters with .22, .25,
and a few other calibre bolt action only,
This country is simply too damned crowded to let any but the most
trained loose with a rifle.

Handguns are absolutely illegal except in specialised ranges.
Needless to say there are plenty about in the hands of criminals


,
The .410 has regained some popularity since there are revolvers chambered
for it.

Just owning one of those would be ten years in prison here. On the basis
that its only use is short range killing of humans by unskilled

Well. Germany had sorta really started WWI, and bombed England, France

Then when Germany used all that as an excuse to start WWII, and made a

Your point that our rationing wasn\'t as bad as your rationing is
taken. However, the U.S. had rationing.

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/

Of course our food rationing wasn\'t as bad as yours, because we had a
lot more acreage under cultivation. And nobody was bombing it.

\"At the start of the Second World War in 1939, the United Kingdom was
importing 20 million long tons of food per year, including about 70%
of its cheese and sugar, almost 80% of fruit and about 70% of cereals
and fats. The UK also imported more than half of its meat and relied
on imported feed to support its domestic meat production.\"

You guys were in real trouble, no doubt about it.

While you guys sat back and made money out of us, till Japan kicked

The US population was wary of millenia of non-stop european wars.

Yes.

As continue today.

Not in western europe they don\'t.

Western Europe doesn\'t have the wherewithal to have a good, old fashioned
war. That may be why they\'re so fascinated with a proxy war in eastern
Europe. Britain still thinks it\'s in a position to affect the balance of
power on the continent.
And it is in fact completely correct in that assumption. It does.
The Storm Shadows it has supplied are having a huge impact of Russian
logistics.
And now Britain has supplied them, France doesnt want to feel left out
and will be supplying French made ones, which they call SCALPS.
It was the UKs decision to send a token dozen main battle tanks with no
nuclear retaliation by Moscow, that emboldened the USA and Germany to
send Aramms and leopard tanks, respectively.
It is on UK soil that the USAF has all its F15s and F35s, its Rivet
joint surveillance aircraft and its stratotankers, that are all buzzing
round over my head as a deterrent and in support of intelligence
gathering along Ukraine\'s borders.

Just because Biden hates the UK, doesn\'t mean that a lot of US military
personnel are not stationed here interoperating seamlessly with UK
military personnel, and cooperating on joint manoeuvres that see e.g.
B52s patrolling the Baltic escorted by Eurofighters.

We are effectively at war here. In alliance with all our NATO partners.
Including the USA.

And we all make a difference.

Roosevelt\'s idea of \'neutrality\' was as lopsided as Wilson\'s. It would
have been better to sit back and let WWI take its course.

Better for who ?

Ultimately the world, I believe. A more equitable treaty might have headed
off WWII. Britain wanted to make sure Germany never challenged their
military or economic hegemony and France was still butt hurt about 1871.
Wilson, with all his idealism, was as addled as Biden.

Nothing would have satved of WWII.

The Germans wanted their Lebensraum, and it wasn\'t the treaties, its was
the world economic collapse of the 1930s that ulimately gave
justification to Hitlers claims that it was the worldwide Jewish
conspiracy especially Jewish bankers that were to blame for everything.

A view that was quite commonly held across the European aristocracy.

War was simply inevitable because Germany ended up in such an economic
mess that only a war would distract from it and justify it. And no one
who has watched the Nuremberg rallies or listened to the testaments of
those alive than can have any doubt that the emotional stance of the
German people was for it 100%.

Only a few more intelligent ones understood the implications.

Japan was a good example of a possible outcome when sanctions and
embargoes are used against a rising nation that feels it has a better
founded interest in East Asia than a country an ocean away.

Bit hard on the chinese tho.

So it goes. Japan, China, and Korea have as much right to fratricidal wars
as Europe.
Wars are good things. They allow more efficient cultures to conquer less
efficient ones, and reduce populations an pressure on resources by
killing dozens of young over testosteroned fertile males, and genocide
gets rid of the tensions caused by \'diversity\'.
The experience on the survivors is also salutary. They shut up and stop
whining and count themselves lucky to be alive and at some sort of peace.


It all started with Perry\'s Black Ships. The ruling oligarchs in the US

No such animal.

Well, whatever you want to call a political system that\'s sold to the
highest bidder. That \"government of the people, by the people, for the
people\" was nice rhetoric but was bullshit even as it left Lincoln\'s
mouth.

Indeed it was.
Unless \'the people\' meant the English aristocrats who had moved over
there and claimed it for themselves.
Anyone who regards government as anything more than a necessary evil to
be avoided at all costs except where there is no other alternative is an
idiot.

Well the best cheddars in te UK are off white with a slight buttery
tinge. Red Leciester is the only red tinged cheese I can think off, and
all the other cheese worldwide that I have ever experienced are all in
narrow shade of white, (fetta, mozarrella, caerphilly\' to more or less
straw coloured. With or without blue veining.
Bright yellow cheese is US processed muck. And I wouldn\'t really call it
