  1. Which country if Russian Revolution fails would become communist ?

    How is colonialism opposed to capitalism? Something like mercantilism may be anti-free trade, but it is not anti-capitalistic.
  2. Which country if Russian Revolution fails would become communist ?

    The movements to expel colonial powers were political movements. The major factor that leads to communism must be economic. Communism is a struggle between the ultra-rich and ultra-poor. In an anti-colonial struggle the ultra-rich and the ultra-poor would more likely be united against the...
  3. Which country if Russian Revolution fails would become communist ?

    By Marxian standards Russia was not a successful example of communism either. According to the Communist Manifesto the end result of communism is a trans-ethnic society without either nation state or government. The U.S.S.R. never made it to the no-government phase or the trans-national phase...
  4. Cold War with a pro-Empire US policy.

    So this board is not in favor of freedom of speech? What about Vladimir, who in another thread has blamed the Jews for all of the current turmoil in the Middle East? Will he be banned as well?
  5. Cold War with a pro-Empire US policy.

    How can you export something if you don’t have the industrial base to produce the exported products and build the ships that carry these products around the globe?
  6. European Jews without the Nazis

    The nation of Israel began before 1100 BC when the tribes founded by the Patriarch Jacob returned to their ancestral homeland in Canaan following a period of slavery in Egypt. These tribes established a confederation that coalesced into a kingdom after several centuries. During the reigns of...
  7. European Jews without the Nazis

    This is essentially what Israel is. Non-Jews can be citizens of Israel and they have full voting rights with the Jews. Both Hebrew and Arabic are official languages. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Demographics_of_Israel#Ethnic_groups Jews make up a little more than 75% of the total population...
  8. European Jews without the Nazis

    If World War I still happened and Germany still lost, I don’t see how the Germans wouldn’t try to blame someone. My German professor in college (a native of Hamburg) once tried to explain the German mentality as a natural consequence of being in the center of Europe and surrounded by enemies...
  9. More 'Anglicised' Deeply Integrated British Empire

    Moslems have a history of discriminating against and persecuting Jews and Christians for not being Muslims and this is an ongoing policy in most, if not all, Islamic nations. Therefore Muslims are unfit for democracy.

    You happen to be talking to someone who is part Cherokee, so get off your high horse.
  11. More 'Anglicised' Deeply Integrated British Empire

    How did these axis leaders do what they did if they didn’t have fellow countrymen who were willing to follow orders? Guilt rests with the whole of Germany and the whole of Japan.
  12. Constitutional Convention

    Presidential succession after the VP isn’t a matter of tradition. It’s a matter of law. At least with a president and vice-president elected on the same ticket there is a chance of continuity of policy if the VP has to take over. In modern times the President and Speaker of the House have...
  13. Answering the Call of Lafayette: America Intervenes in the Franco-Prussian War

    Because of Germany’s history as small, fragmented states, my 1st year German language textbook made the comment that it has been said that there are no Germans, but rather Bavarians and Swabians and Prussians, etcetera, etcetera. The Alsatians spoke a local dialect of German as their everyday...
  14. Electors chosen by legislatures and they meet

    The Founding Fathers didn't want the presidential electors to meet in one place because they didn't want anyone to be able to stampede them into making a rash decision. In a day when communication and travel were difficult, having the electors meet in their separate states insured that they...
  15. Answering the Call of Lafayette: America Intervenes in the Franco-Prussian War

    The Alsatians were the German-speaking side of Alsace-Lorraine. They would have more at home in Germany than France, but from what I gather they wanted both sides to just leave them alone.
  16. More 'Anglicised' Deeply Integrated British Empire

    You obviously know nothing of World War II or how the Germans and Japanese treated the people that they subjugated.
  17. More 'Anglicised' Deeply Integrated British Empire

    If the British were willing to see the people throughout the Empire as British and not colonials and then the Empire’s People were represented in that Westminster Parliament, then that Parliament would not be biased. There would have been no American Revolution if the British had treated us as...
  18. More 'Anglicised' Deeply Integrated British Empire

    A country that can seldom maintain its own sovereignty is hardly a country no mater what kind of democratic features it may have. What good did it ever do Poland to have an elected king if that king didn’t have enough authority to insure that the country had an effective government? In the...
  19. Constitutional Convention

    If there is no elected vice-president, how would you handle presidential succession and disability?
  20. Cold War with a pro-Empire US policy.

    How so? Have you even read what I’ve posted? The fact that as late as 1900 Britain’s exports accounted for 40% of the world’s total shows that its economy was larger than Germany’s.
