  • God had little to do with it. It was their own hard work, to fight and die alone, until the US could no longer make a profit and had to enter the war themselves.

  • I am actually, are you however able to read a dictionary or a history book? If you were then you would know that, technically, the Americans used "concentration" camps to detain Native Americans. As for a rambling post- do you mean one that actually includes facts?

  • George Orwell (or anybody else) can you let me know when this documentary was made?

  • Okay, then lets be clear - this is what you said"read up on concentration camps - the Nazis learnt that from you Brits in the Boer War." and " Poison gas was not an option probably because technology hadn't advanced that much."

    I don't know about you but, to me at least, you were comparing the British camps in South Africa with Nazi death camps and suggesting that they would have attempted to kill millions if only they had the gas... Clear enough?

  • By rambling posts, I mean your long winded posts to  refute things that nobody said.

  • Are you unable to understand simple English?

    I never said that the scale of deaths in British & Nazi concentration camps was the same. I said the British put up concentration camps before the Nazis did. And then I pointed out that a lot of inmates died in the British camps & only technically left the camps "through the gates".

    Don't write a rambling post to refute something nobody posted.

  • The death rate, totalling 26,000 was not helped by the medical practices of the time. The British parliament and population rallied against Lord Kitcheners policy and eventually improved conditions. How you can equate that the the unimaginable scale and horror of the Nazi extermination camps is beyond me. Have you actually been to any? Have you smelled them? Have you seen the bloody scratch marks on the inside of the showers?

    Trust me deadly gas was certainly available at that time.

  • Absolute nonsense, where you get your "facts" from beggers belief. It is true that disease and malnutrition did take a heavy toll by the end conditions had improved to the point where the death rate was lower that many british cities at that time. The real fact that extermination was not the purpose, a degree of neglect by the, Conservative, government was very much the case but no worse than the poor of many Industrialised nations.

  • A large number of the inmates in British concentration camps died of starvation and disease. Poison gas was not an option probably because technology hadn't advanced that much.

    Technically, you are right, all the inmates left the British concentartion camps through the gates, but a large number of them were just corpses and they were probably carried out through the gates to be buried.

  • The major difference between the British and Nazi concentration camps was the people left the British ones through the gates and not through the chimneys.

  • You are a retard ranting about things you have no concept of and cannot even begin to understand even if you tried.

    "Moral authority"!? I never mentioned moral authority. European countries must accept the blame for the disasters they caused; anyway they survived the disasters only with US aid like lend-lease etc, that was what I said.

    Go easy with the ale at the pub. You will be able to understand others' posts when you are sober.
