Let’s talk about how “taken” you are with some of your premises. And I’ll just stick to the military aspects since they are a bit harder to weasel...
I don’t think you understand quite what he’s doing. He’s not trying to deflect responsibility as much as make excuses for why a country that...
As you like. Result is the same.
I was more thinking about the Baltics and all of the various ‘stans, but yeah empire growing never ends until another party ends it.
Uh, yeah, that’s more or less what I wrote. Historically, those things tend to happen after an armed rebellion, especially if you bring in foreign...
Something even funnier to remember is that same wire brush mustached individual did not just take Austria (or the Sudetenland or the rest of...
