That, and the fookin snow!

And considering the Red Army never got any further than Berlin, entered into a pact with Germany before Barbarossa, I would say British military strength numbers against the Reich for the best part of two years, was a mismatch.

All the same, you let those red-tinted goggles get in the way of actual history.

The Russians would be goosestepping, too, if we hadn't kept the Germans open on two fronts.

I don't think so, myself. There wasn't really a second front to speak of until 1943, by which time the tide had already turned in the East.

The Soviets were fucking useless. Fancy that, only, getting to Berlin.

That's because they were up against Bert Trautmann, and you didn't get past him in a hurry!
 
Im looking to invade Wales on Friday, we will cross the border at Queensferry and then push on to Conway. Anyone interested we are meeting at The Vic in Burnage on Friday at half five.......if its raining though we are going to leave it.

I'm still waiting for an apology, or if that's too much to ask from such an arrogant prick (transfer titbits or otherwise) an acknowledgement, that your whole effort to slate me, and your whole sweeping assumption on where my politics lie, are actually based on someone else's post. I can wait. The siege of Stalingrad wasn't over in a week...

It strikes me that the dear leader is merely asserting the People's Republic's sovereignty in the face of insidious imperialist lies designed to besmirch his name during this unfortunate time of ill health and justify the illegal yankee occupation of the Southern half of the People's Republic.

It is also abundantly clear that the CIA and other sundry forces of imperialist aggression sank this ship and staged an elaborate subterfuge to point the fickle finger of blame at the glorious workers of the revolutionary North, precisely to deflect attention from its failing acts of imperialist aggression in the Middle East, but if the yankee imperialists try to revisit 1958 they can be assured that the glorious workers and peasants of the Republic will rise as one almighty force in defence of the revolution and drive them once and for all from this happy revolutionary peninsula.
The imperialists tried this very same tactic when they destroyed their own USS Maine in Havana. It didn't work then, it won't work now.

Hasta la Victoria Siempre.

I won't apologise because it is you, I was addressing correctly in first place!

Your words betray your particular leanings, and this is where you will get a concession, but your final statement implies North Korea would be victorious driving them out of said happy peninsula?

Hence the OP citing the report to Congress.

And as for Stalingrad, again, you won't hear any dispute from me, my one dispute being that greater numbers somehow equal superiority.

Helped a hell of a lot more in the 1940's mind.
 
If you want to win the war, you win the air. 300 million infantry units is nothing against 1000 bombers.

Oh ffs we really need to keep out of any war with n korea... we got enough on our plates with iraq, afghanistan and other places we have our troops.

N.korea have a fcuking huge army, some of their weapons/equipment might be dated but still a mean force. The north is also incredibly difficult to attack too.

Stay well fcuking clear imo!

We do have planes and missiles you know
 
Anyone seen that satellite photo taken to show light pollution in the countries it flew over? Well when it flew over Korea it was pitch black not one bloody light shining in the whole of the country!! Where as South Korea by comparison was lit up like a Christmas tree...........them buggers are upto summat I tell ye : )
