I agree that an armistice similar to what happened is most likely, It's been a while since I read To Lose a Battle, but the French political collapse is remarkably swift.
My point was that with a non-hostile Italy, the military situation itself is not quite as bad, IF the French get a de...
In our timeline, the Japanese walked into French Indo-China without any opposition from the Vichy aligned government or Vichy France itself.

He will probably raise the bar on intellectual arguments both in oral arguments before the court and in the writing of opinions.
He will have an even more important role in the interpretations of anti-trust law.

We actually do, just not in the form you have in the UK. As I stated above there are non-commercial rest areas on most major interstates and the vast majority of exits from an interstate will have one or more gas stations, restaurants, truck stops (a combination of gas station and restaurant...
