On a Civil War tour last week the guide kept pointing out damage caused by "mini balls" and I assumed they were something akin to buckshot. After a bit of internet searching I realized she meant, "Minié balls," which are hollow bullets named after a French inventor. It all makes a lot more sense now.

The man who committed the country to an illegal invasion and helped murder iraqi's by the thousands due to being pulled blindly into American wars is here telling everyone the UK should have been more blindly willing to follow the latest stupid American wars of aggression.
If Blair shouldn't be in a care home for the insane he should be up in the Hague charged with war climes.
And here he is, still doing the 80s thing of encouraging American war crimes.

Wallpaper at Fraunces Tavern Museum in NYC depicting General Washington arriving in Boston. The full 49-foot, 32-panel, 360-color "Views of the American War of Independence" is still produced by Zuber & Cie (est. 1797) in Rixheim, France, using 2,300 (!) wood blocks carved between 1834 and 1852. It takes a full year to print and is likely the world's most expensive wallpaper ($100,000?). The blocks themselves are classified as Historic Monuments by the French Ministry of Culture. #france #history #art #nyc #newyork #museum #wallpaper #woodblock #boston #war #independence #250th
