    Was it actually legal under international law?

    The German government maintained the Royal Navy's starvation blockades were illegal under international law.

    Threads merged. Naval Blockades are a generally accepted form of warfare, as are sieges upon cities that refuse to surrender.

    Leif, stop pretending to ask questions, for which you already pretend to have answers. Just come out and declare yourself a dyed-in-the-wool revisionist, and be done with it.

    Not for the mentally disabled. If so, then most all parking lots would be painted in light blue.
