The British maintained an effective blockade against Germany during World War I that resulted in a shortage of food and other basic supplies to the German civilian population. After the Armistice of November 1918, the blockade was NOT dismantled. It continued in place until the end of the Versailles Conference, June 1919. Several historians have suggested this resulted in tens of thousands of deaths after the last shot was fired. The continuation of this blockade after the Armistice, directed toward non combatants, was not only a criminal act, but also one of cowardice. ________________________________________________ Send list submissions to: Marxism@greenhouse.economics.utah.edu Set your options at: http://greenhouse.economics.utah.edu/mailman/options/marxism/archive%40mail-archive.com
