UK denies visa to Iraqi nun displaced by the Islamic State

Oh, you are wrong on that one…those heroes WEEP for the U.K. of today. Most would have preferred being under HITLER than Muslims. Others regret they fought with the Muslim invasion as the outcome, years later. I can not sully they bravery of those that survived.

I love to read. I have read a book called,

The Unknown Warriors
by Nicholas Pringle.

He put an editorial in local papers asking former military to write about their experience in the WW2 and what they thought about the UK today. I learned allot about what they went through. It was often heartbreaking. As for today, they are devastated at what is going on. It was almost unanimous that they would have preferred to be UNDER HITLER than ISLAM or COMMUNISM. If they had to do it all over again, knowing THIS would be the outcome, the MAJORITY would never have fought in WW2.

Have your children READ this!

Reviews:

Good book told by WWII vets experiences in the war in their own words makes a very interesting perspective. Then they describe how they feel about Great Britain today and in most cases their feelings regarding their country are not good. Makes one realize how our much our two countries are alike. I was able to identify exactly with these people.

=================

I’m not British: I’m American. But I was raised with the idea of “the greatest generation.” I am pretty sure this idea is even more true in Great Britain than it is in the United States: the fight against the Nazis seems to pervade their cultural mythology, as well it should. The British certainly suffered more than the Americans, and ordinary British people proved their mettle in ways their American contemporaries couldn’t imagine. Pringle figured it was worth asking these men and women their stories, *and* what they thought of modern Cool Britannia. The answer should chill anyone to the bone. Most of them say the fight wasn’t worth it. What happened to Britain subsequently seemed worse to them than being conquered by Nazis. Think about that for a moment. These are the people who actually fought the Nazis; not people who only know who that time from old newsreels and ridiculous Hollywood movies. They’d rather have learned goose stepping in German than live in modern Britain. Their complaints mostly boiled down to immigration (Germans apparently make better neighbors than the invaders they got), immorality and crime. The civilization they suffered so much to defend against the Nazis is now dead and gone, never to return, and replaced with something ultimately even more abominable.

I don’t know; maybe it was selectively edited. Maybe the type of people who respond to such request are alienated grouches, though not all of them were: one or two liked modern Britain. Their wartime stories had the detailed ring of authenticity, and were told in the voices of ordinary people, rather than some propagandist trying to make a point. I believe the author was simply trying to give these people a voice before they all died out, as he said. The war stories themselves are fascinating, but their opinions on modern life are a real punch to the throat.

===============

I would like to praise the author for giving the heroes of the second world war a platform to air their opinions. I’m not at all surprised about some of the politically incorrect views of the veterans, but I found it depressing that so many of them feel disconnected to the land they fought so hard for and many of them are no longer proud of their country as they don’t recognise or even like the place. The government and media will have you believe they took up arms to fight for equality against tyranny, the men in this book tell you they fought because they believed their way of life was under threat and wanted to preserve it, they feel since the end of the war successive governments have eroded what they loved through politically correct policies and handing constitutional power to the European union, many of them feel their fallen comrades will be turning in their graves at the state of Britain today.This book can get a bit repetitive because the veterans opposition to the E.U, mass immigration ,homosexuality and general degeneracy in modern society is unanimous.

===================

I came across this book via a discussion on the Daily Telegraph.

It is a collection of letters from British World War 2 veterans describing their experiences in the war and/or their thoughts about Britain today and whether they feel that the sacrifices they and their comrades made were worth the outcome. It is a book which I myself have remarked many times in the past ought to have been written and I am so pleased that someone has found the time and energy to do so.

Chillingly, it charts the decline of what was at the time of WW2 the most powerful nation on earth into a place which a great many of the old soldiers, their widows and other war survivors such as Land Army girls and blitz survivors say they would generally rather not live in and that they are so glad that they are 80+ not 18. Perhaps most unnerving of all, a number of them actually think Britain would have been improved by Hitler: something that you would never have imagined they would say.

The book is not in any way the subject of modern ‘spin’ to make the views more politically correct, which is refreshing. I believe that the views are really not very different from those held by a silent majority of Britains and that all politicians should have to read the book.

I recommend it for being an unvarnished truth and it is an achievement that it is now on the permanent record of the British nation.
