Plus it’s only happened once that a democracy has declared war on another democracy.

Can anyone guess which were the two? (Germany 1914 was not a democracy despite Robbieh’s assertion that it was)

UK USA 1812 war?

They are waiting until the authorities have put all the high art and cheese in zee nuclear bunkers.

The citizens will have to either swim the channel or adopt vodka as their national tipple.

We've had plenty of RAF/USAF flights around recently. First time I recall seeing a B-52 recently however.

Britain and Finland.

Probably the most friendly war ever.

Interestingly the Finnish war with Russia started after Russia bombed their own positions and blamed Finland.

As SWP's back pointed out I incorrectly stated that Germany was a democracy in 1914. Apologies.
It does seem that after the end of WW1 it brcame one, even to the extent of allowing women to vote.
