-           Will they   tell us how   in English and French newspapers they published   the statements, 'The whole Czech nation   worth less then one English of French soldier!'?

 

-Will they tell us about the " strange war' in 1939 -1940 when until Hitler ordered   to attack France, French and British troops, outnumbering Germans in people and ammo   STOOD STILL for many months on the border while   the British and French   media howled,' Direct the German Expansion to the East and we here, in the west will be content.'?

 

-           Will they tell us about   Operation Catapult when   English Navy attacked and drowned several French ships ( about 4000 sailors died) to prevent them from the possible joining the Vichy but   that   did   not stop US from   establishing   the   diplomatic relationship with the Vichy govt?

 

-           Will they tell us about   the Arctic disaster of the British Navy?

 

-           Will they tell   us about   the story of Coventry when Winnie, the Pooh knowingly let Germans to bomb it to dust because he was afraid that Germans would   understand that British had cracked the code and would change   it?

 

- Will they tell us about   a strange story of Yugoslavia in 1941 when British directed the   coup against the pro- German   govt but then, when Hitler and Mussolini attacked the country mercilessly- English did not help?

They pulverized Belgrade then and in 1999- that tells you something.

 

-           Will they tell us   about the   firebombing of Dresden, where 300000 people died in fire, including   about 10000 English and American POWs while the only   building of military significance- the railway station survived? That was in 1945, when Russians were in Germany already.

 

- Will they tell us    how    in preparation   to the Operation Overlord, the invasion of France in 1944, English and Americans although keeping De Gaulle in limbo   pushed him to order   the   Vercor uprising of French resistance to distract Germans. The uprising was crushed and it was then   when the people of Oradur -- Su- Glan were burned alive, all of them by SS.   There were 37 German divisions then in France against 100 divisions of Alllies and it was right after the best German generals were killed by Hitler. Why did Winnie want to sacrifice more French?
