We used to be friends with a guy named Tom Lee a private equity investor who owned the Enquirer and the Sun and who the Clintons stayed with in the Hamptons when the Monica stuff was going on. He had some pretty good stories.

If you want some really light bedtime reading it’s fun to dig into the ways countries with less robust nuclear deterrents seek to ensure they retain uncertainty and a reliable second strike capability. (Briefly: There’s a good argument to be less persnickety with launch authority). 

Google "Letters of Last Resort."  It's a very British way of dealing with this issue.

That war was salvaged by that evacuation, not won by it.  Had the Germans massacred the British Army at Dunkirk, like they could have, It may have taken the USA years to get enough kit across the Atlantic to turn the tide of war.  Thing could have gone on into the 50's....easily  

 

...Or we would have used nuclear weapons in Europe...

Oh and WC is Winston Churchill who as a warning said to the House of Commons following Dunkirk, “We must be very careful not to assign to this deliverance the attributes of a victory. Wars are not won by evacuations". He was seeking to check the mood of national euphoria and relief at the unexpected deliverance, and to make a clear appeal to the United States. 338,000 soldiers were saved including 26,000 French soldiers when only 45,000 were expected to be evacuated.

Keep talking shit about America's first and longest ally, without whom the United States wouldn't exist. Yes, they can be prickly at times, but we've never warred with them. You talk as though the defeat in a war in which many other countries fell to Germany before France, e.g., Austria, Poland, Denmark, Norway, the Netherlands, and Belgium, equates to cowardness as a national characteristic.

If not for France's sacrifice at Dunkirk and the Channel, the UK most assuredly would've also fallen in the early stages of that war. Who the fuck knows what the world would look like if the English couldn't have run away to fight another day?

Personally, I know far more French than English, and they've been truly great, reliable, loyal, fun-loving, but also provocative friends. Je les aime, les français. Ils définissent une irritabilité adorable mais profonde. If you don't know any, your life is all the much poorer. Go find a French to love.

Read my first post. All I did was laugh at Micron with 3 words, "That is hilarious". And I wouldn't personally call a 3 word sentence a rant. K. Furthermore, I went to Hautes Études Commerciales so you trying to call me out on not understanding France is absurd. If you don't think it is funny that Micron basically called Schultz a pussy, I can understand. But, I can't understand you driveling on and on regarding basically a throw-away comment.

Dude, you besmirched the character of an entire nation with the implication that French = coward in three simpleton words. I only pushed back a little bit with a counterexample of French bravery in one comment about the French saving the Brits' asses, but you kept pushing.

Turkey controls the straits and during wartime has closed them to warships from the parties unless they are returning to a home port. This is under Montreaux Convention.

Some deal with Turkey. Russia has to have permission from Erdogan to go through the Bosphorus and Dardenelles and he denied it at the war's outbreak, so Russia's Black Sea Fleet has essentially been trapped.

 

EDIT: Experts beat me to it.
