nice, Unibet has applied for a spot in the
ProTour, which means if theyre accepted
they can compete in Tour DeFrance,
Vuelta a Espana etc
Now all I need is for a certain invidual, who shall remain
nameless, to complete the decoder so I can watch
next years Tour on Eurosport : )
But im still gonna cheer for Credit Agricole

Saw some documentary called "Auschwitz, the forgotten
evidence", they showed how Allied reconnaisance
phtographed the camp from air in summer of 1944,
but they didnt do anything about it,
im in agreement with prof. David Cesarani who argues,
alongside 5 survivors of Auschwitz, that the Allied SHOULD
have bombed the camp, even at the risk of endangering
the lives of the inmates, as one of the survivors said,
"id rather die of a brithish bomb than go on living like this",
and since Auschwitz was one of 6 death camps
(all the others was work camps) all the inmates
knew they would be killed sooner or later,
one of them said that "had the Allies bombed the camp it would
have sent a very important signal - you are not forgotten!"
The Allies did bomb a nearby IG Farben rubberplant gasoline
factory in the autumn of 1944, and some of the bombs almost hit the
camp (the factory was located at Monowitz, just a couple of kilometers away)
and apparently, the inmates all cheered, because it meant that
the Allies was advancing to the camp (the Soviet Red Army
liberated it in January 1945) but one wonders just HOW
many lives could have been saved IF the Allied had bombed
Auschwitz in august 1944? Apparently Churchill was the driving
force behind it, but he was outnumbered by the Allied command
who claimed it would be better to try to crush the Nazis as swiftly
as possible, and that it would slow down the final victory if they
had to diverge bombers for a mission to bomb Auschwitz,
I guess both sides were, in essence, right
