27 million dead

[pabird]

Russia lost 27 million souls WW11 and in celebration of their sacrifice to beat the Germans attempt at world domination, the worlds leaders met to pay homage

 

Each participating country sent its PM or equivilent, we sent John Prescott, pathetic

[Big J R]

..........And how many German POW's and ex-East Germans did they liquidate under Stalins rule at the end of the war ?

 

Some people estimate more than Hitler liquidated DURING the war !

 

Interesting subject for discussion....

 

Answers on a Swastika, to.....................

Agreed but 27 million Russians died in the cause irrespective of their leaders predeliction for sadism

Those 27 million earned one off major thank you from all of us

PS. 50 world leaders and Prescott attended? Prescott!!

[Uncle Urchin]

I hope they never made him ride in a Zil....

 

surely they would have laid a couple of new XJ's on for him... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Little Miss Urchin]

Does the 27 million include the number who died because the government couldn't feed*/clothe them adequately?

 

 

*I'm not including Leningrad here.

[YELLOW]

As mentioned above millions died because of Stalin's purges. I estimate a few thousand died as a result of the battle at Stalingrad.

[Uncle Urchin]

well the official figures for Stalingrads commie dead are in excess of 250,000....but hey...who's counting...maybe 'Joe The Impaler' did a few in himself and blamed it on the Krouts...

 

personally I don't give a sh*te about the commie turncoats as 10's of 1000's of our merchant seamen lost their lives running the north atlantic gauntlets with the u boats just to supply stalins people before they decided to oppose Hitlers invasion...up until then they had hobnobbed with him....

 

mind you....Putin could have done us all a favour and locked up fatso prescott on some trumped up charge or other.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

 

obesity greed and gluttony would have sufficed..... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/blush.gif" alt="" />

 

these commies never did have a sense of propriety.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/shocked.gif" alt="" />

 

mind you...they dunt'alf breed some top quality lap dancing totty.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

Interesting you should mention Prez Putin, Unc.

Re-arrange the following letters. B - K - G.

An whatabout that sabre rattlin parade in Moscow yesterday ?

Bush and Putin all pally-pally. No sign of Bliar !

Are we next ?

I think I feel safer with the yanks as enemies rather than allies.

Just curious as to why. I don't think it was the yanks who started WW 2

[EFC_Callum]

it wasnt

[Little Miss Urchin]

At least when they attack and kill our troops we know they legitimately meant is as oppsed to oops, 'sorry' didn't notice that big Union Jack fluttering from your tank.

[The Invisible Man]

Yep LMU, that is what I was alluding to.

[Barry Scott]

come on, how do you expect the Americans to see a British flag with a face full of greasy cheeseburger and an ever increasing waistline?

[The Invisible Man]

Do you really expect them to know what one is?

 

Or anyone's but their own, come to that!

Hence the politically corrects statements:

Collateral Damage and 'Green on Green'

'B@lls Up' sounds much better !

[American FLEET FAN No1]

At least the Americans know the correct way up to fly their Flag......Not many British know how to fly theirs!

[Uncle Urchin]

course we do....we fly 'em over our heads and the yanks fly 'em up their own arses.... <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" /> <img src="/forum/images/graemlins/grin.gif" alt="" />

[Dan Sampford]

Oh yes, LTN(London Tonight) ran a story about a Hospital not being able to fly the UK flag, because it was discriminating the foreign workers. Well something along those lines.

[Big J R]

I thought the subject of Flags had been put on the back-burner !
