A bit dumb question, but how did WW2 tank crews fighting in desert conditions even breathe in their tanks? It must've been a fucking oven inside.

>well-regulated
>shall not be infringed
So, does "well-regulated" indicate that certain regulations on firearms are constitutional, or does "shall not be infringed" contradict that? Someone give me historical and legal context.

> give me historical and legal context
The Constitution is a collection of mere general guidelines and being pedantic about individual words is meaningless in a country with an inherited Common Law judicial system.

>>2747442
Well-regulated meant well equipped in that era. There were frigging privately owned artillery weapons back then.

I have been intrested in eastern european history recently and Poland seems quite intresting but I'm having a hard time with finding their contributment to the European culture apart from people that lived in exile such as Chopin and Marie Curie.

I guess the Lithuanians do count too seeing that they have been in an union.

Can you enlighten me /his/?

It's not like the approach is necessarily improper. I just wanted to study culture though. Still haven't really gotten a fulfilling take on the classic stuff.

Hello! I've found an interest for reichsführer Himmler recently. I have heard he was into the occult. Can you get his diaries somewhere? or any documents? I want to know what this man was into. Aliens, magic, pony riding. Thanks beforehand! Heil Himmler!

My parents live in the town he grew up in. I walk past the house he lived in frequently and my mother is a teacher at the school he went to.
Just in case you were bored and wanted a free bump

Very intressting. I would like to know more deeper stuff of him. Sadly the "J-elite" probably has all the juicy documents and diaries of Himmler.

He was a pussy incarnate

He only witnessed a single execution, and got so squeamish from it he nearly fainted

why did U.S and U.S.S.R divide Korea Peninsula illegally? They even had no right to do military occupation.

Stalin installed a communist government just like he did in every other country the Soviets 'liberated' and South Korea was the best we could do politically and diplomatically to ensure the Korean peninsula wouldn't turn into a communist shithole and provide us with another ally in SEA
>>
>>2747168
They'd just liberated Korea from the Japanese and to be honest, who the fuck was going to stop them dividing up a poor, unknown country for their own strateigic reasons?

The only other power with any balls in the region was britain and she was still picking her teeth up off the floor after ww2
>>
>they had no right
What the fuck does this mean? You can't seriously believe nations actually consider themselves bound to "international law" by anything other than the relational inconvenience breaking them would cause, do you?

International law is just another form of states exerting power and influence over other states. To see it as anything else is foolishly naive
