How many French does it take to defend Paris?

No one knows- it’s never been tried.

Good old french bashing…Can someone reminds me what did the American do in the early years of WWII? They did sell weapons to Hitler, didn’t they?

The U.S, never sold weapons to the Nazi’s, we did sell to England under the Lend Lease agreement before the U.S. entered the war.

I am going to visit Paris next week and being interested in WWII history, I would like to know the exact location of Hitler and Speer as they viewed the Effile Tower. If anyone knows the location where they were standing, I would like to know. Thanks.

The US government may not have sold weapons, but Us companies certainly did. American tire companies were making fortunes, IBM sold the machines that produced the numbers tattoo’d on the holocaust victims, GE was contracted to modernize germany’s rail way system. in Fact many US companies continued to trade with Germany through out the duration of WWII, even after it was illegal. A good example is coca cola, they continued to sell soda to the germans,,,but to disguise its origins they changed the name, the called it Fanta.

Is that the real Hitler? Why would he pose in that way? What does the fourth person in the picture doing? What will they do in that place? What’s the essence of taking a picture infront of the Eiffel tower?
