Peace bro you are a favorite.
Anyone can catch fish in a boat but only \"El Pescador Grande\" can get them from the beach.
I hope when my time comes the old man will let me bring my rod and the water will be warm and clear.

German is pretty easy to learn for english speakers! With German domination, our automakers would be making better, more creative cars like Mercedes
and BMW and Volkswagon. With germans we would have better vacation and health care benefits.
Japanese domination would have brought better cuisine and more polite behavior to our shores!
p.s. baitboy, don't get your panties in a bunch - 'tis a joke!

I was surprised to read that China lost up to 20 million.
Switzerland was the place to be. (or South America)

Those numbers are obscene,we were fortunate on D-day in that the Russians had already broke the Germans back before the landing,the allies still lost
thousands that day.

So silly that people go to such lengths to make a point. That generation stood up for what they believed in, and they defeated what, in my opinion,
was an evil force. Pretty clear cut stuff. We might not ever be faced with such an obvious enemy, but I hope we can be as brave.

These endless lands and unique waters are not simply soil and sea. These elements of earth and water are as much a part of me as my blood and organs.
And the people that populate this corner of the world lift my spirit to heights that allow me to see what is truly important; The beauty of life. And
that is the essential gift.

Handicapped persons 150,000 to 200,000 handicapped persons were victims of N-zi euthanasia.
Ethnic Poles 1.8 to 1.9 million civilians were victims N-zi crimes against ethnic Poles;
Russians, Ukrainians and Belarusians Sources in the English language estimate 4.5 to 8.2 million Soviet civilians were victims of N-zi ethnic
cleansing and the war;
Homosexuals- 10,000-15,000 Gay men perished in N-zi concentration camps;
Other victims of N-zi persecution-
Between 1,000 to 2,000 Roman Catholic clergy.
about 1,000 Jehovah's Witnesses;
Serbs The Croatian allies of N-zi Germany murdered between 320,000 and 340,000 ethnic Serb residents of Croatia and Bosnia during the war
