"for years I had made proposals to the world to forsake aerial bombing in warfare, especially against civilian populations, but that it was England who refused this, probably anticipating a new war, because democrats are such psychics". He states that he himself did not use this method and wage war against civilians in Poland, and nor did he allow nightly air raids on Polish cities, as at night you cannot accurately hit your targets, so bombing was mostly by day and against military targets, and that the same was true in the battles in Norway, Holland, Belgium and France. Suddenly, Hitler says, Churchill realized he was not having success penetrating German airspace by day, so he came up with the idea of night attacks to "terrorize the German civilian population"..

>>69676051
He speaks of how patient he was and allowed the Brits to continue for some time, in the hopes that they would stop, but it did not. Hitler says regarding Churchill, "I thought to myself the man is crazy! He is introducing a new type of warfare, and one which can only lead to England's destruction!" He talks about how, after Germany had already won the war on the western front, he had again extended his hand in peace to England, and how once again he was chided and spat upon. "Halifax behaved like a madman!" Instead of halting, he says, they stepped up the bombing attacks, so it put more pressure upon him from the German side to retaliate. He states how he waited three months before issuing orders for retaliation strikes against British cities. "Alas, I'm taking up this battle" he states, and "that means the fight to the end from now on! They wanted this fight; they shall have it!" "They wanted to destroy Germany by an air war; I shall show the what will be destroyed!" He says that he has "petty on the English people" and how "they can only thank the common criminal Churchill for this!". He carries to chastise Churchill and then says that he made a mistake in testing the resolve of the German people; that this is a new Germany he is dealing with,which will become more zealous in her resolve with every bomb dropped. Germany has had enough of this nonsense and is determined to put an end to it. He repeats "they wanted this fight; they shall have it!" and Germany will never capitulate. He says they must fight to the finish and not run the risk of a short war that would resume again in a few years. Hitler says "The German Folk want to have peace finally! A peace (as he had always said) that would allow the Germans to work and which does not allow international scoundrels to agitate other peoples against us! These are the vermin who make their fortunes through war.

"While preparing for an evening lecture on 21 April 1820, Hans Christian Orsted made a surprising observation. As he was setting up his materials, he noticed a compass needle deflected away from magnetic north when the electric current from the battery he was using was switched on and off. This deflection convinced him that magnetic fields radiate from all sides of a wire carrying an electric current, just as light and heat do, and that it confirmed a direct relationship between electricity and magnetism."
It's one of those instances where you have to decide on what counts before you decide who won. In reality Orsted, Maxwell, Ampere and Faraday invented/discovered it.

That's it. I'm sick of all this "Masterwork Cheese Knife" bullshit that's going on /int/ right now. Cheese slicers deserve much better than that. Much, much better than that.

I should know what I'm talking about. I myself commissioned a genuine cheese slicer in Norway for 2.400.000NOK(that's about $400,00) and have been practicing with it for almost a generation. I can even slice slabs of solid steel with my cheese slicer.

Norwegian smiths spend years working on a single cheese slicer and fold it up to a million times to produce the finest cheese deviding devices known to mankind.

Cheese slicers are thrice as sharp as conventional knifes and thrice as hard for that matter too. Anything a cheese knife can cut through, a cheese slicer can cut through better. I'm pretty sure a cheese slicer could easily bisect a Spanish cheese stored for centuries with a simple horizontal slice.

Ever wonder why medieval Europe never bothered conquering Norway? That's right, they were too scared to fight the well-fed Viking and their cheese slicer of epic nutrition. Even in World War II, the German soldiers targeted the men with the cheese slicers first because their slicing abilities were feared and respected.


So what am I saying? Cheese slicers are simply the best cheese cutting apparatus the world has ever seen, an thus, require better reputation on /int/. Here is the words I propose used for serious discussion of cheese slicers:

(One-Handed Exotic Slicer)
Unmatched Robustness
Swift and Gracious
Exceptional Slicing power
Superior to "Masterwork"

Now that seems a lot more representative of the slicing power of Cheese Slicers in real life, don't you think?

tl;dr = Cheese Slicers need a better renommé, see my new proposal.

Hitler says "The German Folk want to have peace finally! A peace (as he had always said) that would allow the Germans to work and which does not allow international scoundrels to agitate other peoples against us! These are the vermin who make their fortunes through war. I have no reason to wage war for material considerations. For us it is a sad enterprise that robs the German people and entire community of so much time and manpower. I do not possess any stocks in the armament industry; I do not earn anything in this war. I would be happy if we could work again as I used to for my people. But these international War Criminals are at the same time, the armament industry's greatest black market profiteers! They own the factories; they make business! The same people we had previously had here in Germany. There can be but one confrontation with these people; one of us must break, and this will not under any circumstances be Germany!"
Is this true today?
Do international Capitalists wage war every moment of our lives to rob of us peace and our capital?
