we couldn't destroy the world. Like America we did good as well
as bad, but on balance, was the British Empire a force for good?

I would argue that Germany only became a member of the clube after
it had reformed (whether by own or others efforts), and was not

are more in their own self-interest, and it will come back and
bite them just as it did with us.
Not necessarily, I have sent viruii to all those with which I disagree.even when opposing viewpoints have been expressed
