To your point
“Historian Niall Ferguson argues that France is the most belligerent military power in history. It participated in 50 of the 125 major European wars fought since 1495; more than any other European state. It is followed by Austria which fought in 47 of them; Spain in 44; and England in 43. Out of the 169 most important world battles fought since 387 BC, France has won 109, lost 49 and drawn 10.” https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Military_history_of_France#%3A~%3Atext=Historian+Niall+Ferguson+argues%2C49+and+drawn+10.
I hate how 911made it a meme to link the French military to cowardice and surrender

9·2 个月前I’m more enamoured by the last stand when Jesus was arrested.
When the Romans came to arrest Jesus with Malhcus, the high servant of the Jewish High Priest.
Peter drew his sword in defence of Jesus and severs Malhcus ear.
On seeing this Jesus responded 'The cup my father has given me is empty shall we fill it?"
He then put his hand on Malhcus and said “Suffer ye thus” and snapped Malhcus’s neck with a sickening crack.

United Kingdom@feddit.uk•‘How can I start again at 68?’ Maria has spent 50 years in the UK – and is fighting deportationEnglish
51·2 个月前Calling this fascism is not helpful to anyone…
This is Maria arrest as per the article
“the police knocked on Maria’s door. They told Maria that they had received reports that someone was being held in the house against their will, “and that the woman who was still staying in the house accused me of selling sex on the premises,””
Maria’s QC pressured her to accept a guilty verdict but we are never told why.
The guilty plea is what triggers the deportation - which she can appeal and is doing so (hence the comment from her solicitor).
Lastly had her crime been human trafficking people into brothels - would you still be saying the same?
