.@brownson_review. We did use some very blunt instruments, but it is by no means clear that they won the war. Indiscriminate aerial bombing did surprisingly little damage to the Nazi war machine. Please see https://t.co/0iibkMkamu — PolitiTweet.org

.@brownson_review. You might find this interesting https://t.co/8BdgzEngmu . The huge, very German, Schloss or Citadel which dominated Kaliningrad was blown up at some point in the 1970s on the orders of Alexei Kosygin. Obliteration was the aim. — PolitiTweet.org

@twittersupport. This person changes the pictures (and makes other adjustments) when I complain, but can equally easily change them back (two days ago all three pictures were of me). He also purports, incredibly, to share my actual birthday and uses my name. Obvious impersonator. — PolitiTweet.org

I am much of your opinion @ianinsurbiton. For instance, I think Clement Attlee was a great Labour leader, but his role in preventing and delaying British rearmament in the 1930s is shocking. All educated people should know about his virtues *and* his failures. — PolitiTweet.org

Strange to look at a map of a city which no longer exists This (dating from 1936) was Koenigsberg in East Prussia, now Kaliningrad in Russia. Very little remains (though German manhole covers can still be spotted, and I visited the tomb of Immanuel Kant on a visit in 1992. https://t.co/UL2U3PcTZa — PolitiTweet.org

Monotheism is a wholly separate and distinct belief from the polytheistic belief in the Greek 'gods'. And as far as I know monotheism coexisted with them. — PolitiTweet.org

.@fredajones66. Surely you've finished kindergarten? What unexplained things would be solved by claims that there were fairies at the bottom of the garden, an orbiting teapot or Santa Claus? None. The debate about theism, by contrast, concerns the unknown origin of the universe. — PolitiTweet.org
