Did you actually read the link you posted, it does say that it is not known if a genocide took place, the theory of a genocide is the alternate one not the accepted one.

What are you talking about? In Britain the only paper that supported Nazi Germany was ridiculed by politicians, the public and in most academic circles. Of course there were people who supported these types of views in all countries; you're not making any kind of point by stating that. You are...

You failed at the very beginning which makes the rest of the post somewhat pointless. The point of school is not just to get a job (I can't imagine how bad the world would be if we reach that point), it is to learn life skills in general - from that then we should have equipped the child to be...

Depends who you listen to, either you go by the actual definition - which somewhat describes what you claim to be. "a foolish or contemptible person who lacks social skills or is boringly studious:I was a serious nerd until I discovered girls and cars a single-minded expert in a particular...

California has a population well over half the size of Britains (and so is the size of a reasonably big country on its own anyway), but is less than half of our GDP so no it does not "compete" and is not particularly special. Germany would have been so powerful had Britain not stopped their...

Yes very good, more ill informed nonsense and posturing like a 10 year old. Now we can leave it. lol oh dear - you're thinking of blitzkrieg which has nothing to do with the bombing campaign of London. Maybe learn the very basics of what is been talked about before looking stupid. And...

There are so many things wrong with what you said, it is not worth me pointing them out as it is clear we wont be able to get anywhere. I mean seriously - the very nature of world war 2 was because of Europe appeasing (if you know what that word means) Germany too much, which shows your entire...

Any reason why? It's not an amazing movie, but also not really horrific. I only watched it because I look for cheap/low budget films both online and in DVD stores all the time (CEX in the UK is good for this). I often buy the rubbish ones for 50p, and as crap as they are they often entertain...

You might as well just said the entire genre of romance in that case! For me, probably Final Fantasy Advent Children. I'm not a massive fan of the games to start with, and I certainly don't think I can be bothered to sit and watch some incomprehensible gibberish that is unfathomable without...

Japan would likely have surrendered - every country other than the US at the time thought it was fast approaching. And in reality, the US government probably did think so as well but were more interested in demonstrating the bombs, which is why they had to drop them fast while they had the...

They got involved because they had too not because "they were tired of this stupid shit" (a statement that instantly puts you on the same level as most trolls to be honest), luckily for them some countries actually fought back and completely decimated German naval and air forces before the US...

It was common knowledge they were close to defeat, they were surrendering in parts and being driven back easily in other parts, the nukes were no in any way justified. Worse case scenario was that a few more thousand soldiers died (you know, those guys paid to fight and die). Who in their...

You're just being deliberately dumb now. Where has anyone said anything about copyright? It is a console. You can not profit from or sell that software or any part of it , that is true - but there is no reason you can not do whatever the hell else you want with it for yourself. I could hack...

If no one was forcing anything, there wouldnt have been a choice to make - thats pretty simple. And as for the games online issue, what if someone did hack them and set up a system to play them online again would you care, or want them stopped for daring to enable a game to be played?

Everyone saying it is stupid to credit it to piracy and it is "insert whatever you think here" are just equally as stupid. Your opinion is no more valid than those that believe it may be due to piracy - they are both as equally likely and your opinion is not the best. As for piracy in...
