I find the name inoffensive even though the Nazis threw more bombs on my country than any other place in the world per metre squared and tried to starve my nation to death.
You also admire and love italians even though they also murdered maltese people in WII, so really doesnt say much!
Pointless. You are really very, very biased and not capable of going beyond your biases. I know that you love the British and hate (loathe?) Italians. No need to reiterate that. Bud did you know that just before World War II the British wanted to "donate" Malta to Italy as a friendly gesture? That's how much they cared about Malta...just a colony in their empire which they could dispose of when and how they wanted.
Come on hulmey. Besides even the British did bad things over here when they opened fire on the civilian population. Remember 7th June? The war has passed. It's been over for more than 60 years. Since then many things have changed. Learn to go beyond your biases or else you arguments will never be objective. Or do you mean that you still hate the Germans and the Italians for the events of World War II to this day and always will?
Your going way off subject. But comparing Bush to Hitler is very very wrong. Do the Iraq's hate bush, some probably! Did Bush commit genocide with the rest of the world?
Or was it Saddam Hussain and his dicatorship that gassed his only population?
PS, im very anti Bush, but to compare even remotely with a man like Hitler is utterly shameful!
), hate Goering and find it insulting that someone had chosen "Hermann Goering" as his nick. 
Germany was working on improving its navy but it never got even remotely close to british.
A major landing in Britain would be suicide in this situation...
hopelessly wrong. I repeat that it was impossible to bomb a large nation into oblivion. The precision of carpet bombing would make any serious damage to the targets uneconomical. Look at the recent war in Serbia. The mighty US was pouring precision weapons but the air-defense capability was still there in a month. Targeting radar in the Battle of Britain would help tactically but not strategically. British would have just rebuilt them. Remember fighter aircraft had at most 20 minutes to operate after crossing the channel, which made bombers on both sides to operate essentially without cover.
