Chirac promises to NUKE…

@Curtmungus your honor of being more famous than me is quite deserved. I salute you.

Classic advice! Nothing says safety like a day of drinking and fireworks 😂 Stay safe out there! Fireworks are definitely a hot topic with the Holidays—Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year—coming up. I’ll be in France for Christmas and New Year, and I’ve heard New Year’s celebrations there are amazing with fireworks. Found this tourism statistics interesting too, https://gowithguide.com/blog/tourism-in-france-statistics-2023-all-you-need-to-know-5275. So excited!

@Witt you need to brush up on your military history.

Happy Quanza. Whatever that was

series of History of the First World War by Marshall

Candelvish Publications(they did the W.W.2 series).

Pictures, illustrations, charts, graphs, side articles of W.W.I,

written by the generation who went thru it, and, the ones

afterwards.

Your library might have a loaner series, to take a book home,

or, order it thru the state library system.

I read my series at Buffalo Main Branch at the turn of the

century, took me under two years to go thru the whole series

of books.

Impossible one does not get a feel for The Great War, much

less ideals for House Rules, thanks, Pellulo

A good series is Marshall Cavendish W.W.I series. This 12 volume set, is usually found in libraries, encyclopedia articles of the war, some written or based on people who lived during the war.

Rich in pictures, graphs, charts, illustrations, side stories of the Great War. If you cannot find what you want to read here, then it probably be a hard search for that particular subject.

Some libraries hace a duplicate set of books, letting you take a volume home. You can try the net, used book stores, good luck in getting a set, enjoy the read, thanks, Pellulo

I can’t agree that Carter was one of our better presidents.
(snip)
Who in his right mind would turn over complete ownership and control of the Panama Canal to a nation not exactly friendly to vital American interest?
(snip)
However, the real disgrace was the Iranian Hostage incident. Here we were the strongest nation in the world, rendered helpless and incompetence to national honor as Iran held American hostages for 444 days.

Well, you prefer the US being the worlds policeman?
Maybe he gave the canal back to Panama in the first place, because it is in Panama (i don’t know the exact terms when it was built and for how long the US was “leasing” it)?
For the second: It was a decade of world terrorism. What we face today is different, but not more than in that times.
Why is your “national interest” and “national honour” the only measure for a good president? These two things are often reasons for starting wars, but nothing more!
