Well if you're going to start naming commie dictators it's only fair we mention the worst dictator and genocidal maniac in all history...
Radical, Man!
I think you'll find that Uncle Joseph Stalin and Chairman Mao successfully managed to slaughter millions of their own countrymen behind closed doors you'll find history has rewritten the worst genocidal maniac of all time handbook and they feature right up the top now. The reality is genocidal maniacs use politics as a means to an end extremists of any persuasion are a bad thing And as for your mention of godwinism.While falling afoul of Godwin's law tends to cause the individual making the comparison to lose their argument or credibility, Godwin's law itself can be abused as a distraction, diversion or even as censorship, fallaciously miscasting an opponent's argument as hyperbole when the comparisons made by the argument are actually appropriate
I am not disrespecting the fallen at all, I am just pointing out that her government sent hundreds of RN personell to the Falklands with their redundancy notices in their lockers, many were on terminal leave and were called back to man the Armada that was sent down.I wonder how many came back to collect their redundancy And yes I was a member of the forces in those days, a Royal Naval Reservist, but I never saw combat at that time, I did however serve at MOD HQ, but can tell you no more.
Once the original Grumpy Owld Man but alas no more
No. The worst was probably Hong Xiuquan.
D'oH! My brain hurts...
Well if you were RN reserve you weren't there nor where you a serving member of the regular armed forces and saying you worked at MOD HQ is well laughable in the regs you'd be called a REMF which I suppose is as suitable a term as I can muster. I'm fully aware of the official secrets act and if you're as old as you suggest but still can't say anything that would say everything so don't try the James Bond I can't say anything line as its baloney used by floor sweepers to sound big down the pub !
I was on the forum, and I read about it in cesare's thread entitled thatcher dies.
I bet not many can tell their grandchildren that they learned the news by reading cesare on caithness.org!
I did my celebrating as a young loon when she died as a politician on November 22, 1990. Today's event was the sad death of a sick old lady.
