I can't agree with that analysis, three of my reasons:
1. Although he is currently shagging with the peasantry, King Harry will restore some shine to the British royalty. Regardless about what they say out loud, the Brits love their monarch, well the non-muslim Brits, it sets them apart from the rest of the world. I don't believe a "King Charles" will ever ascend to the throne either through abdication or natural causes.
2. The Germans were toe to toe with the Warsaw Pact. I know missiles and planes can cross a channel with no problem but foot soldiers can't. It gives a sense of protection similiar to a moat.
3. The Brits know we will be there for them in a heartbeat if asked. The Germans knew they were a trip wire. They were there to just slow the forces.

The above statemet is confusing me, are we talking past or present?, because if it presant then i asume it means as if to say that some other force attacks germany on way to moving to briatn, Britain would then be a "Trip wire" for American intervnting before the force were to move thru Britain an then later on to America,...

'OR'
Were you refuring to the 'PAST'..?
Because if so, then America was 'NOT' there for Britain in WW2 Even tho Chirchill was desparatly calling for American help.


There is no dout thta the currunt america of today would be here for us, or indeed for anyone 'including france' if needed...

But back then things were a different story,....

I am how ever confused, and you were probebly talking about the 'Present' or indeed the 'Future' in witch America i'm sure would be 'hole-heartedly' comitted to standing by her closest friend ,...

I'm not exsactly fireing on all thrusters at this minuet because of the fact that i have been up "All day and Night and Day....."

but infact the more my brain thinks (and thus warms up) i belve u meat that germany were a 'trip wire' to any hostilitys from an invading force, and America would be here to stand by britan in the fight to push 'BACK' that hostile foe, while germany 'Slowed them down' in readying for our 2 or 3 pronged assult.
