May I ask why?

How can I say I believe a book which I have not read?

No he quoted the bible...

Not actually in the Bible. I have read it cover-to-cover.

Fine with me. Winter campaigns were rare anyway. Since it looks like Austria won't join Khobab, the war looks like it will be short enough.

I appreciate that it is Prussia holding the knife, and not the Netherlands. That said, I can't think of anything that either of us would gain by killing off Leopold.

While issuing a correction to the declaration of war, von Bismarck remarked,
"It stands to reason I would forget the current Ottoman leader's name. I occasionally forget the name of my hound, and I hold him in much higher esteem."

World in Revolution: 1861

"The Government of the of the Ottoman Empire, having violated in the most flagrant manner and in ever increasing measure all rules of neutrality in favor of the adversaries of Prussia and having continually been guilty of the most severe provocations towards Prussia ever since the outbreak of the Belgian war, justifying itself with a misintepretation of a secret treaty, has finally resorted to threats of open military acts of aggression.

The Government of the Ottoman Empire has publicly declared that it would order the Ottoman Navy to prevent access to Prussian ports should its demands be refused.

The Prussian Government therefore establishes the following facts:

Although Prussia on her part has strictly adhered to the rules of international law in her relations with the Ottoman Empire during every period of the present war, the Government of the Ottoman Empire from initial violations of neutrality has finally proceeded to breathe threats of open acts of war against Prussia and perhaps the Zollverein as well. The Government of the Ottoman Empire has thereby virtually created a state of war. It has entirely fabricated a Prussian threat of war to justify its wanton aggression.

The Prussian Government, consequently, discontinues diplomatic relations with the Ottoman Empire and declares that under these circumstances brought about by the Ottomans, Prussia too, as from today, acknowledges and makes official herself the virtual state of war with the Ottoman Empire. May God stand with his Christian soldiers as we march to war.

~VON BISMARCK, on orders of His Majesty the King."

Alors, c'est la guerre.

Non-literal translation: Bismarck is done playing games.

Bless. Look at you all jumping over each other to defend yourselves. Relax, we're not going to shoot you ;)

You are going to shoot my ships, however.
