Of the 340,000 Jews living in metropolitan/continental France in 1940, more than 75,000 were deported to death camps, where about 72,500 were murdered. The government of Vichy France and the French police organised, and implemented the roundups of Jews. Perhaps you should remind your acquired compatriots , before you start throwing mud around on here .

I think you miss the point in a big way! It's nationalism that is the problem and that French govt was the equivalent of the racist Tory one you have. No one cares where they were born. They are all vile.

The similar plan supported above led to the gas chambers. Fact.


Let not any one pacify his conscience by the delusion that he can do no harm if he takes no part, and forms no opinion. Bad men need nothing more to compass their ends, than that good men should look on and do nothing. He is not a good man who, without a protest, allows wrong to be committed in his name, and with the means which he helps to supply, because he will not trouble himself to use his mind on the subject.

Trump lost the election.

Indeed he did, though you're wrong in thinking he's suffering with dementia.

He may or may not have dementia, but the description fits him as well as it fits Biden, apart from the bit implying that he’s president. Covfefe, among many other examples suggesting cognitive impairment.

... How right to quote this passage ... but where does this leave us/NATO all ... in utter shame and guilt that we haven't taken offensive action with the Ukranians.
This mode of using war's to make money is sickening (as typified by the US from WW1 onwards). ...

No surprise there from the man who thinks the gas chambers were a useful tidying up exercise.

So you think it's right to risk nuclear war with Russia, possibly a world war over a country not part of nato, that only a few years ago was being called out by the new York Times and guardian as being corrupt and ultra neo fascist.
