The thin red line

British troops will march in Red Square for the first time in history to commemorate the 65th anniversary of the end of the Second World War.

I'll be impressed if they do so again next year to mark the end of the Cold War–with or without Mr Putin's permission. Special bonus points if the Russian government finally lays that wax mummy to rest in his home town and razes the pile he's currently occupying so the Communists can join their Nazi brethren on the ash heap of history.

Rules for submitting comments:

1. No profanity. I maintain the pretense that this is a family-friendly site.

2. Stay on topic. A bit of straying and off-hand commenting is okay, but hijacking the discussion is right out.

3. No ad hominem attacks. Attack the subject, not the other person on the thread and keep the discussion civil.

4. No spamming or commercial endorsements. These get deleted immediately.

Tip: Beware of putting hyperlinks in your comments–especially at the end. For some reason, Blogger interprets these as spam.

Note: Due to the recent spate of anonymous spamming, registration for comments is now required.
