POP QUIZ:

German prisoners taken in WW2 were held until:

(a) They were freed by their court-appointed lawyers.
(b) We declared we were no longer at war with their masters, and let
them go.


Of course, the analogy to our so called "war on terrorism"
is ridiculous. For starters, there will never be a conclusion
to the current war... so the detentions will be indefinite, by
your logic.

And your point is ... ?

"The British left intermittently erupts like a pustule upon
the buttock of a rather good country. Seventy years ago it
opposed mobilisation against Adolf Hitler and worshipped
the other genocide, Josef Stalin. It has marched for Mao,
Ho Chi Minh, Khrushchev, Brezhnev and Andropov. It has
slobbered over Ceausescu and Mugabe. It has demonstrated
against everything and everyone American for a century.
Broadly speaking, it hates [America] first, [Britain] second."
