Judging by some of the comments here, I perceive a general lack of understanding about how history works 8) The human experience (barring some amusing drug related experiments) generally has things happen first and those things become history. Now, those things are related in some way from past to future and the relation might be fact (ie "true"), false news, wibble or bollocks. That is actually a closed set there - wibble covers an infinite number of cases and so does bollocks. So here's some wibble. According to "1000 years of annoying the French" which is a book written by a Francophile Brit about the relationship between France and the UK, the Normandy evacuation is/was seen as abandonment and near treachery by the French. That's a point of view I can understand (Brit here) when you look through other people's eyes at that event and try to see it as they would. All sources I have ever read about the relationship between Charles de Gaulle and Churchill detail a fraught but necessary arrangement. Also, that Churchill was (rabidly) in favour of a united Europe and CdG was not. Where is the source(s) for this article?
