Having discussed matters with Neal and Steve we have come to the joint decision I should take over the role of moderation here, not in order to undermine Steve but more in releasing him from the constraints moderation brings and allowing him to join in the debate and give his views.

I hope we can all agree on the following points:

1) This topic is about who started WWII and nothing else.
2) Talk of the holocaust is verboten and will not be tolerated.
3) Sufficient pleas for common sense and civility have been made and no further warnings will be forthcoming.

Trust me when I say I understand how emotive a topic like this can be but if we all remain mindful of the three points above and treat each other with a level of understanding and consideration this thread could well turn into one of great interest to many in our community.

I thank you all in advance for your co-operation.
