</color>"respectful difference," bloody respectful difference indeed! The implication
is that I and other ex German POWs imprisoned at Adolph's pleasure, and indeed,
my father-in-law with half his face shot away by the bushido tools of emperor
Hirohito only respectfully disagreed with these bastards did we? Well I'll be

Yup, only three years ago the Mayor of the shire in which the Bindjareb
Massacre was perpetrated suggested that it was not a massacre, and if it was
not a battle, perhaps we could describe it as an altercation. Yeah! Right!
Just like like the Second World Altercation?
God, or someone, save us from these academics and their abuse of basic Anglo-

I just wish I was in Sydney to do something against the march over the bridge
