In 1940, Britain had retreated back to their island fortress after being throttled in mainland Europe by invading Nazis. They would hide behind the sea and hope that their navy and air force could stop the possible German invasion of their island.

As the Battle of Britain raged on, the German and British air forces went head to head. Something strange happened, the Germans pulled of[sic] a series of highly effective night bombing raids. It's strange because night bombing was incredibly ineffective for the most part.

[...] This German bombing was much more effective than what the British could do at night. As a matter of fact, it was more accurate than what typical bombing could do in the day time.

  "Not sure how this is could be offtopic."

  Perhaps because the conspiracy theory has nothing to due with the topic at hand?

  Pslytely Psycho, I do *not* kind of like your posts. Please prep just a tiny bit for a grand minimum at least scenario.
