Your quote:

Germany defeated France, Poland, and England for that matter because of tactics

By mentioning England in the same breath as France and Poland, you imply surrender. Of course, your earlier comment about Britain not being in the front lines painted you as being historically illiterate anyway.

I get LewRockwell's daily e-mail just as I get the Federalists daily e-mail, or are Reaganites freaks in your opinion as well?

Sophistry. I said LewRockwell.Com was loaded with freaks, not the others. However, if you did not agree at least in part with the philosophy shown there, you would not likely have mentioned. I sometimes read the Guardian, but it's hardly something that I would mention with any pride, as the Guardian does not reflect my opinions at all.

Only people not so sure in their beliefs (like say, someone who sites leftwing journalists for historical 'proof')fear opinions from others.

I don't fear opinions from others. I hear crap opinions as well as good ones all day. I am sick of hearing many of the crap ones - my robust response to you is due to the scent of horse excrement that surrounds yours.

"I get LewRockwell's daily e-mail "

LOL, yet he critiques some of the best WW II histories out there.

I first read Rise and Fall of the Third Reich as a teenager.
It sure didnt turn me into a Liberal, I crammed this read between Solzenitsyn's "Gulag Archipelago" and Ayn Rand's "Atlas shrugged". Read all three books and will you learn MUCH ABOUT TOTALITARIANISM that you cannot get from any other books:

Read the reviews overall ... 4 1/2 out of 5 stars.

I am sure JohnGalt appreiciates this one:

I implied no such thing, nor was it my intention to imply anything. In context, in the Battle of France, England was defeated in the field and retreated at Dunkirk leaving behind so much material, it would hard to call Dunkirk anything but a Teutonic route.

I agree with the forefathers and the Constitution so I read any publication whose central debate is 'what would the forefathers do?' or 'what would Jesus do?' I find it a little more satisfying than thinking of funny stuff to call the French. There is an entire range of debate that exists beyond the Murdoch Right and the CNN/ABC/NBC/CBS left; it's called 'America.'

(Left-liberals have no such publication or intellectuals for that matter so they bring nothing to the table but reactionary diatribes and plenty of charlatans. PS, Taki is great; please don't put him in prison.)

FYI, 11 of my ancestors died in the Ypres Salient fighting in the Welsh Dragoons; my Great Uncle was injured by gas and died just 8 short years ago. There is no greater lover of the British Armed Forces than I; it's the leadership I could do without which I guess puts me in league with Kipling, an imperialist conservative...hmm, how 'bout that?
