Within the 101st division there’s record that one suggested response to the German surrender request was to tell them to “go and take a flying shit” but it was feared that the Germans wouldnt understand that, so they settled on “Nuts!”
ETA: I got that backwards.
The Germans were confused by the use of American slang. Ernie Premetz recalls him saying Harper and Premetz discussed how else to convey the message: “You can tell them to take a flying shit,” Harper said to Premetz.

Dunno, I guess it depends how quickly people from the Middle East became white?
As an island, Britain’s population has changed multiple times. The region’s early farmers descended from people from the Middle East who arrived on the island about 6,000 years ago, bringing agricultural practices with them. The newcomers replaced hunter-gatherer communities that had inhabited Britain previously and formed the majority of the population from 4000 to 2500 BC, Parker Pearson said.
But around 2500 BC, people began to arrive in Britain from Europe, largely from what’s now known as Germany and the Netherlands, and it’s around this time when Stonehenge was rebuilt, according to the study.
The researchers believe that the rebuilding process was “a response to a legitimation crisis brought on by this influx of new people” and an attempt to unite the Neolithic farmer population.
