I just hit the link and this site has “lost” $2000 of it’s value. LT I’d say your trivial comment is more than apt. I have to go outside now to see if the sky is falling.
…. and if you stretched it enough i suppose you could call the reformation a civil war in the church :-D
they forgot a lot of them without haveing to strech. like all the english civil wars and the glorious revolution. and they forgot the war where more americans died than any other war. (also happens to be the second modern war) the Civil War. (what a creative name) Does the Hungarian Revolution count as one and all the other minor communist revolts. Does Italian Renuifaction count as a civil war. because it just this one dude going around and forcing others to join the great italian cause. but someone said something about Greece. they did have a civil war right after world war I i think.
Greece had its civil war after WWII
the communists tried to seize power
the USA and UK backed up anticommunist forces which eventually win
very important event was closing the borders of Yugoslavia and Albania to Greece, that how Greek communists found themselves trapped
-it happened after the Tito-Stalin split
and the Greek communists were i think ideologicaly connected to Soviets
yeah i think that happened after both wars. first the brits and the french were dividing up Turkey and the Russians and Americans created the coldwar.
how much money do you have in your wallet Tim?
zero
well . . . that’s better than NO money . . . at least if you’re an engineer . . . :D
Being an engineer, I consider math useful when applied. Otherwise it can stay with the poetry books in the library.
As Meijing as explained, much better that I did, the value here is in describing what happens as a variable approaches zero either from a positive or negative term.
As for what Jen was attempting to plagerize, I will leave her hanging from her own petard.
Yes the key to do that would have been to invade the Soviet eastern territories before they were transfered. The reality of a japanese “northern” solution was often discounded due to the huge defeat they faced in the border clash with the Soviets in 1939. Its hard to go against experience. My feeling is Stalin could have ignored or buffered this huge area with a few troops playing for time until a decisive outcome could have been obtained against Germany. The japanese didnt posess enough troops at any point to even push even 500 miles into Soviet Territory. They had to commit too many in China in a war that could not have been decided for even another 10 years. Remember they fought them since 1931 with no decisive result.
The key was to keep bagging Stalins armies using proven tactics. But with the strategic outlook of true mobile army having the ability to retreat and reform for counterattacks once the Soviet offensive lost steam. This elastic approach was what Manstein favored, while Hitler kept his old WW1 ideas intact. Hitler allowing his generals to fight the war would have brought victory. That along with the extra month of time.
Yeah, that was the other thing.
He acquired all of Europe through a mobile army, then hunkered down in the worst place in the world at the worst time.
Also I wanted to add that if you are desperate, get heavies, and start buying bombers. THEN your enemies will try to destroy them at all costs, and since you are desperate and building 15 ipc units that defend at one die roll of one (or less :wink:), you won’t be able to defend them very well.
