Jim: You're shooting yourself in the foot with the Concentration Camp example! Invented by General Kitchener during the Boer War for housing Boer civilians. Thousands died in the insanitary conditions I believe. Right up there with the 1919 Amritsar massacre as one of our less glorious imperial moments.
Balkenkreuz: IMO you are in danger of being quite offensive. If I were Jewish I am sure I would feel very strongly about you calling the Holocaust "a few war crimes" that can be easily compared with those perpatrated by the Allies.
Matt Witt: I agree with your analysis of the UK's situation in Europe. Trouble is it is quite depressing for us subjects of HMQE2! Much better to look forward to our "modern" role in "the heart of Europe". Least that's what Mr Blair will be telling us at the referendum....
As for the question in hand, it's a tricky one which I don't pretend to have an answer to. I'll have to dig out a pouch of rough shag and put my thinking cap on. This is a 3 pipe question!
