The Wehrmacht in two years, conquered all of Western Europe and lost only 30,000 troops in the process. That’s less than the casualties at Gettysburg. Nobody, no army on earth in 1940, could’ve held off the Germans under the conditions that the French faced. The bigger catastrophe would be for the only real democracy in the middle east to fall. Israel will not listen to zero, they will attack Iran when the time is right. And it won’t be a half-assed job like zero would do either.

Fair point. It is an undeniable lesson of Military history that the German army in WWII completely outclassed all others. We should cut the French some slack.

“they will attack Iran when the time is right” I agree, that is why I am putting some money on the side and waiting for the attack, then the stock market will drop sharply and I will buy as much as I can. I already have a list of sound companies and am just waiting for the right moment.
