British Resolve

by Jen

“The children won’t leave without me, I won’t leave without the King, and the King won’t leave under any circumstances.”

This is, of course, the famous quote from Queen Elizabeth (the Queen Mum), when it was suggested that the princesses be sent to Canada for safety during the WWII bombing of London. The fact the royals would not leave became symbolic of British resolve.

God bless the U.K.

I love the Open Letter to the Terrorists (from a British online new source) that Michael Totten has posted here.
