Actually Reinhold I was agreeing with you. I phrased my reply poorly [I was tired ]. Ich bin kein Engländer.

I have to merge the accounts. Do you prefer Merlin or Bodewin?

[BodewinTheSilent]

Mynydd, I am not Merlin.

These are the possibilities:
1. You are one and the same person
2. You are two people sharing the same machine.
3. Mynydd is either lying or has made a mistake.
Which one is it to be?

[BodewinTheSilent]

I am not Merlin. I am not sharing this machine with anyone. Therefore, Mynydd is mistaken.


What I meant in my original post:

The English are attempting to justify a criminal terror-bombing policy. By the constant repetition, that Dresden was a valid target, they are trying to talk themselves into believing something which is untrue.

I believe you are the one who has made the mistake

I understood you the first time. That is why I said the process you describe is English cant. However your point here is wrong.
The English are not trying to justify a criminal terror bombing policy, they are trying to deny it by suggesting that there was some military necessity in bombing Dresden, qute apart from all the other cities they flattened.

Reinhold Elstner: I believe you are the one who has made the mistake

I'm not going to dance backward and forward like this. I am not Merlin. You are perfectly entitled to hold onto your erroneous belief.

That is why I said the process you describe is English cant.

Okay. England is definitely the land of excessive hypocrisy.

However your point here is wrong. The English are not trying to justify a criminal terror bombing policy, they are trying to deny it by suggesting that there was some military necessity in bombing Dresden, qute apart from all the other cities they flattened.

Again, okay. The thread title is an error then? No matter. I know all about those Neanderthalers in Airplanes.

Why then would Mynydd say such a thing?

Its a bit more than that, hypocrsiy is culturally defining there.

The thread title is not in error. There is a difference between trying to justify a massacre and trying to deny a policy of terror bombing.

I honestly don't know.

Mynydd, I really don't know how that's possible. I swear, I am not Merlin.

This is ridiculous. Please, delete my account.
