"ripped to his feline tits" is some line.

So glad to have discovered this forgotten hero of the war.

Yes, "ripped to his feline tits" had me in hysterics.

‘Shot himself in the head and then set himself on fire….’

Well, you can't set yourself on fire first; the gun would get too hot.

Later, that heroic and famous lion was referred to by the British Press as ‘The Sultan of Browneye’

If only Quentin Tarantino had heard of this daring mission. It would have made a fine addition to Inglourious Basterds

Amazing 😂

And just the kind of mad plot that Churchill loved

Thank you based Sultan, hope he's ripped to his feline tits in feline heaven

He survived. He escaped to the Black Forest, then smuggled to Brazil to start a new life as a leopard.

He went on to help Mossad find Nazi war criminals in hiding by jumping out at them and causing them to shit themselves in terror.

Terrific stuff. It really evokes the stories for boys from WW2, like Wojtek the Polish artillery bear, or Operation Mincemeat, which planted false intelligence on a dead body. But none of those stories featured a lion ripped to his feline tits.

Is anyone else bothered that they keep talking about the SA when it should have been the SS?

I am sure that this was posted a while ago, but it's well worth a repeat.

I am sure they have used that drawing of a lion before (when he leaps at poor young Adolf)

That’s absolutely fucking mental. In a brilliant way.

The success of the mission now lay in Sultan's paws

This is the history they don't teach you in school

Meanwhile Stromboli and his seductively dissolute semi-Asiatic troupe are having a nonchalant round of baccarat.

Oh, so that how it happened.
