  1. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    The Nazi sometimes literally approached, if not reached, traditional mythic/religious text levels of evil related to demons. Truly Mankind at its very worst. This is why, even on the Board with its membership that almost be definition, is full of students of history, you will regularly see...

    WI: The Enterprise completes its five year mission (Star Trek survives for 5 seasons)

    Although Ilia and Decker had had feelings for each other I got the impression it was from pre her Starfleet days hence the vow of chastity? Would she therefore resign over Decker? I'd suggest transferring her if you want her off Enterprise, then she can come back later, but honestly having...
  3. Little Rock Nine Massacre

    As the nine students approached the main gates 3 men approached covered in Ku Klux Klan clothing fired several times into the group, two of the blackies died instantly, 3 escaped and one hobbled away the three that remained were viciously mobbed and one was grabbed by the strong white hands of...

  6. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    When discussing the morality, we should start with Korea, not Germany. Continuing massive bombing after the front has run into a stalemate, with the experience of WWII that this won't cause a surrender is much harder to justify.

    The Sun of Rocroi TL- A better Grand Condé

    In Ubu Roi she is all the more cynical because at that time Poland as a state did not exist. If I avoid writing too much about regions I don't know very well, it's to avoid that more knowledgeable people reverse my work by putting forward elements I didn't know. 😛 Nah indeed I'm not 100% sure...
  8. Why are the western allies bombing civilians?

    Doing that at night was bloody hard, even in 1945 with all the bombing aids available they are going to miss more often than not and they are going to hit a lot of civilian targets. Plus low level attacks on heavily defended targets are going to cause massive losses to the attacking crews...

    Moose do not give the impression of "south" to me, just a small criticism.
  10. WI: Britain Keeps Michigan and Wisconsin Territory If America Still Goes Independent?

    America isn't going to "outsettle" the Brits in the area. There will no doubt be Americans in the area, much like there was in Upper Canada, but they weren't exactly chomping at the bit to join the USA. And in OTL, Michigan and Wisconsin only began to get in earnest after Ohio, Indiana and...
  11. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    Zero, at least in any practical time period.
  12. The Anglo/American - Nazi War - The on-going mystery

    They were a constant source of friction between the claimant of Soviet leadership and the WAllies. At some point one group or another was going to do something monumentally stupid to "prove" they were the real authority. Easier and less expensive in the long run to get them out.
  13. What if during the 1980's troubles Ireland was united but "committed" a terrifying bombing and Britain declared war on Ireland

    I don't think it would be a likely response. A death toll over a hundred and one presumes injured of several hundred would be the worst bomb in the history of the Troubles by a long shot. But not by an order of magnitude or by the total death toll of the troubles it would be roughly 3x as bad...

    July 1917 Kadet Coup against Kerenksy?

    Literally all you are doing is engaging in whataboutism so whenever I point out that you are lying when you claim the Whites engages in only minor acts of terror and did so only justifiably, you immediately just turn and claim the Reds did worse. Like okay? The Reds did do worse, what’s your...
  16. Goeben Atlantic breakout

    I don't deny that this is an extremely risky operation. However, I think it's the "least worst" option. The ships in the Northern Patrol have to find Souchon which might not be easy with a small number of ships covering a large area. That isn't all they need to do. They have to maintain...
