It supports our defense industry, British jobs, and send a message to the world that British technology is first rate. It is also a valuble source of revenue which keeps our defence industry able to support Britain with the minimum of foreign purchasing (im not saying there is anything wrong with foreign arms).

It's also an interesting piece of history, something that the entire world can look back on and try to prevent happening again. The A-Bomb was also a product of WW2 - the A-bomb is good because it effectivly ends the threat of wars between the world most powerful nations. We wouldn't have Nuclear power, engineering and mass production no doubt benefitted as well, plus everyone in the world can now look at the church as the extorting, immoral cunts they have always been. I mean, millions upon millions of people died, but there are still many benefits WW2 brought to the world, i'm glad Hitler wasn't shot in WW1<span id='postcolor'> It wasn't a good thing with terrible side effects; It was a terrible thing with good side effects.
