“English historian, author and television presenterSimon Schama described them as a “special kindof loathsomeness: a blend of historical deafness,grotesque stupidity and comically ludicrousself-importance”.”
He’s just a fool. He’s a TV anchor ffs.
Well, he could not really talk about American heroes fighting Nazis, could he?
His boss would certainly not approve.
So he doesn’t want them in the U.S. but he doesn’t like them elsewhere either? Dude, stop projecting your racism onto other people. Just because you are a dingbat bigot doesn’t mean anyone is or wants to be.
Much of the French military in World War II were foreigners. The French Expeditionary Corps was composed mainly of Algerians and Moroccans. It was this unit which broke through the Gustav Line in the Battle of Monte Cassino. Then there were the Senegalese Tirailleurs. The British military had Indians and the Gurkhas from Nepal.
