Xmas means not fighting with the people you shouldn't be fighting with.
Merry Christmas!

A touching story of a Nazi soldier who experienced kindness from his captors and paid the debt in full. Through the false hatreds used to divide us the light of our Brotherhood shines through.

Through the mists of war and the false hatreds of brother against brother, our true fraternal spirit sometimes shone through.

The formidable German defences faced by the Allies on D-Day (Too bad the Germans couldn't have been a member of the Allies).

Hillary is hellbent on starting what she hopes will be a limited war with Russia, to help keep her ass out of jail. Don't fall for it, The Russians are our brothers.

Peace does not happen because of Pacifism. Nor do wars happen because of strength. Quite the reverse actually....Pacifism as a dishonest grasp at unearned power and therefore a cause of war.

In the past men were men, and even boys were men when the call came.

War has always been a mixture of heroism and stupidity, as proved by the Battle of Minden, fought 257 years ago tomorrow.

80 years ago today the Spanish Civil War began, after a semi-successful coup against the left-wing Spanish government.

The wasted generation vs. the useless generation?

The technical reasons for the high number of British casualties on the first day of the Somme - the wrong munitions to cut the German barbed wire, superior German helmets, deep German dug-outs, transport and communication confusion, etc.

As these soldiers were photographed their destiny was hovering over them.

Few songs more moving.

An excellent discussion on WWI by Todd Lewis and Keith Preston.
