When it is finally someday known what all went into this escape, it will make for a good movie. Seems clear there was more inside help than just...
Anyone could easily have said the same of the US in the early 1800s with plenty of substantiation........ the Sedition Act of 1798 (which made it...
Disbanded seems unlikely, what with US carrier air groups (then and now) being independent units (independent from the carriers, that is), but of...
Questionable if they could have made it in time.... was already late May when this decision was made I think.... 3000 miles between SF and...
The IJN brought their battleships along because that was what they had available, not because there was any vital mission for them to accomplish...
I just thought this was interesting. I'd suppose they aren't the only ones either....
Assuming Blatter is re-elected in a few hours, as he probably will be, the only remaining question is whether or not any of those arrested can or...

The belief on the part of many, including me, is that this has been going on for years and years. Like for at least a decade. The Colts game is...

It's equally puzzling from the US side.... the US Army always seemed to be caught by surprise by the onset of winter, although they were not...
I'm no lawyer..... but seeing as how Brady stonewalled the investigation and refused to cooperate (i.e. refused to produce text messages/phone...
By 1942 there's no question that defeat was inevitable for Germany. I would not call this a myth. With respect to 1941, could Germany have done...
