True Sharma,

Back OT, in summary, Africa, fuck um

 

[soze]

Yeah come over here take our jobs... wait who??

 

[Rookiescot]

Another wonderful example of bullshit.

Open trade with India & Africa pre roman times ? The Egyptians did some trading with neighbouring states sure, but thats it.

Going through the posts in this thread, sheesh..people sure like to post crap about things they know nothing about.

Dear God you are a moron sir.
There is clear and undisputable evidence that items from as far afield as the middle east turned up in Britain in the bronze age.
You gonna post about people knowing nothing? Take a long hard look at yourself.

 

[Cemeterygates]

i don't know and don't claim to know much at all about what is going on in africa....but i do find all these "guilt trip" aid appeals tiresome. and africa is corrupt so what can you really do? i find it hard to believe that the british empire caused all the trouble....no doubt it DID cause some issues...it's a shame that there is so much hate an violence in a place that needs to unite to help eachother an grow strong.

Yes and the vikings got to the Americas first, the Piri Reis ( pre colombus) map shows Antarctica with no ice. Ive got various books here filled with that sort of stuff, and will quote more if you like.

Your right, im totally convinced selected individuals did indeed discover and leave traces in places unknown to the West at the time. The Vikings for example, yes they did land in I think it was Newfoundland, did they didnt trade


Your not reading the rest of the thread, the point here is were the celts trading in commodities with peoples from India & Africa in pre roman times. Sorry but for starters India is in Asia, not the middle east, nobody is disputing middle eastern involvement, but you have informed us of this for reasons unknown. I hope you know the middle east was the centre of art, technology, science, every thing ffs ! when the celts were living in dung huts, the middle east and china was building walled cities. We got some artifacts on our island, woopiedo.

Try harder kido.

You really are an an idiot.

The purpose of all British colonialism is to make the homeland richer invariabley at the expense of the locals. There are almost no kind or altruistic acts when you look at British foreign policy, get a clue. Now that there is nothing left for us to sap of the countries they can go and fuck themselves, that's basically what you're saying.

You are exactly the type of ignorant, biggoted, inbred twat that makes me ashamed to be British.

 

[Raven]

Please tell me I should care though?

 

[Raven]

must....hug....everyone....hnnnnnnng

 

[Zede]

You really are an ignorant piece of shit.

his true colours shining through !

i just wanna know how this tard' got to be a mod with such facist tendancies, anyone mention hitler yet ?

 

[Raven]

sigh, another brain dead moron who even after all these years STILL doesn't understand I am not a mod

 

[Raven]

Hurray, godwin's law is correct



jesus

 

[Sharma]

He's not a mod.

 

[Raven]

Now while I will not appologise for my views I can understand that not everyone feels the same but I don't really care tbh. People who feel they should feel responsible in some way for problems in other countries are free to feel that way. Despite what some angry teenagers may think I am not racist, I despise the lazy whatever colour they are.



The wonderful world of freedom of speech and opinion.

Only having limited dealing with the Raven once before, Im not to know. Why the fuck does the tit show up in the mods list of people online ?

Fuck off to Alabama Raven, the pointy hat brigade love your sort.

You really are an asshole and you have no idea what you're talking about.

You are worng Germans should not feel guilty for world war two as it was the parents or grandparents that joined the Nazi pary and killed Jews. But us Brittish must feel eternally sorry for the actions of the empier and do everything we can to return these nations back to how they were before we arrived

 

[Marc]

No they didn't, Germany wouldn't have been able to invade the UK, we had already dominated them in the air and were winning at sea. Yes they made it possible to push into France and eventually Germany but the didn't bail us out.

yes they did. If America hadnt of got involved, germany would of owned europe and we would of eventually been invaded. The industrial might of america, in the main, won the war.

well, it would have a been a long war of attrition without the states, but we would have won ( vast arsenal of V2s would have been a prob though) people here have all but forgotten the Ruskies. The states would have joined the war eventually, but not to taker on the Jerries, but to stop the Russian advance !

Eerm no, well off topic, Hitler had to divert his armies from the eastern front to oppose the D-Day invasion (Battle of the Bulge etc), make no mistake, UK posed no threat to Hitler after the blitz and was preparing for the Russians

 

[Raven]

The blitz did nothing to damage our military though, if anything it improved our resolve. Hitler ordered the Luftwaffe to stop attacking airfields and move onto cities which gave the RAF time to regroup and rebuild and then win the air war, without air superiority the war was lost for the Germans.
With the war in Africa all but won by Britain they were also running out of resources. America played a massive part in bringing a relatively quick end to the war but saying we were bailed out is just stupid. We would have eventually ground the Germans down by destroying their industry, along with the Russians on the eastern front it was just a matter of time. Hitler lost the war by going over the heads of his generals and making some mad decisions.
He knew we would be a threat which is why he tried to get us on his side. Even down to Dunkirk when they could have finished us off completely he hesitated.

Anyway, it doesn't really matter now does it, Europe still dislikes the UK because of our history and can't quite accept that without us you would be nothing. You have to ask yourselves how such a small country, both population and size achieved so much and is still one of the "world leaders" both politically and financially.

I am proud of my country and think everyone should be proud of theirs, if the bitter and the jealous have a problem with that then its their problem, not mine

 

[Hawkwind]

That would be the industrial might Britain spent 1/3 of its wealth buying. The reason our side won the second world war was because Hitler went against his generals advice and invaded Russia. Fighting on two front spread them thin and the Russian's used the weather as a weapon. A lot of historians believe the tide was turning before the yanks got properly involved.

On subject I hope those that incited the ethnic troubles in Kenya are strung up for what they have done. As for the giving to charities or not my personal view is, that I give to charities I believe do some good. I do not give to charities who do work in places like India, because in my view any country that spends billions on launching satellites and developing nuclear weapons should be capable of feeding and educating their own people. The fact they don't and leave much of it to charity organisations is because of their racist caste system.

KK just wiki this for me then or find the answer somewhere:

No. of British Fighters left directly after Battle of Britain:
No. of British Bombers left directly after Battle of Britain:
No. of British Pilots left directly after Battle of Britain:
No. of German Fighters left directly after Battle of Britain:

Why bother, numbers don't mean much when we knew exactly where they would be attacking (through enigma) and exactly where they were when they got here (with radar) The spitfire out performed the Bf109, had less of a stalling threshold and was faster. I do hate to quote wikipedia but meh, you seem to love it.

Supermarine Spitfire - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

"The Luftwaffe's only single engine, single seat fighter, the Messerschmitt Bf 109, was similar in physical dimensions, attributes and performance to the Spitfire. Some inherent advantages helped the Spitfires win many dogfights, most notably manoeuvrability: the Spitfire had a higher rate of turn and a smaller turning circle than the Messerschmitt:[22] there are accounts of 109s being able to out-turn Spitfires, but this was only because the Spitfire pilot probably didn't turn as tightly as possible through fear of his aircraft losing its wings. Good cockpit visibility was probably a factor as well, as the Bf 109s had a narrow enclosure with heavily-framed, panelled cockpit windows. Supermarine's chief test pilot Jeffrey Quill was able to be seconded to 65 Squadron in August 1940. He soon discovered that the thick framing of the laminated glass, bullet-proof windscreen and the curved, perspex quarter panels of the Spitfire created blind-spots and distorted forward visibility. His recommendations led to a new windscreen design and, much later, a clear-blown, teardrop shaped "bubble" canopy."

We can start on how western democracy (for all its failings) is built on the British model, with the magna carta and so on. How about the industrial revolution in the north of England and the Midlands changing the world? Or maybe our advances in science?

Would be interesting to have some frenchies jump on this thread. I'd love to see the argument btwn you and your Francoise counterpart

Oh god yeah, where is that dorimoor when you need him
