:PDT_Xtremez_42:

What an outstanding fellow, even giving a tribute to the Germans.

AD why the :PDT_Xtremez_42: ??????

I used a :PDT_Xtremez_42: because it is sad that so much youth, from both sides, was wasted fighting a war that had no reason to be fought.

ah ok.

ah ok.

Where might we be today if the Great War had not been fought? No National Socialism. No Communism. No death of the 'six million' Jews. I could go on but I have a website to update.

“Battle doesn’t determine who is right. Only who is left. We destroyed fascists, not fascism; men, not ideas.
Our triumphs did not serve as evidence that democracy is best for the world any more than Russian victories proved that communism is an ideal system for all mankind.
Only through our peacetime efforts to abolish war and bring a larger measure of freedom and security to all peoples can we reveal to others that we are any better than our defeated opponents.”
