Dont know. People, even on here, might argue that sieges never work.
My answer is that blockades dont usually work, but sieges do.
The whole countries of Japan and Germany were basically under siege during WW2. Although that was not the determining factor to their defeats, it caused them to lose the war because of the shortages from those sieges.
of course, Stalingrad was called a siege. It might have been a type of siege but the Russians had an avenue of supply to that place.
Vicksburg was a siege, for example. Masada was a siege.
You didn't listen to the lecture, did you.
you are so right..
and I call shite for brains! he’s mine! :)
LOL!
Is that a fact? How would you know that they “spread gasoline”?
Why were the Feds there in the first place?
It is hard for us to talk about atrocities in other countries, when it appears that we sent in our own people to gas a bunch of children.
