Is The US Making The Same Mistake As Japan Did in 1941?

[PT Car Washer]

Yeah. And I ain’t fighting no Russian. No russki ever called me deplorable.

Try getting a bone spurs medical deferment. I heard that works real well.

 

[quad decade guy]

Japan one of our biggest Allies now. They really profited post ww2.

Interesting. I've heard otherwise. In a constant quasi-recession.....since WW2.

How do you fake bone spurs, when an x-ray will show there are none?

They've been in a deflationary cycle since the early 90's.

Their peak was the 80s

The United States military is a far cry from the desert storm days. Most people polled say they won’t fight for this country either. We are in trouble.

I wouldn't fight for it again.

I bet all those guys who joined at 18 and got a lifetime pension at 38 don't feel the same way.

The ones who didn't commit suicide, get a drug problem, need mental help, and didn't get divorced 3 times in that 20 years?

Because that's pretty normal. For a silly pension.

Most who stay in don't have those kind of issues.

 

[TearsInRain]

i pretty much don't give a what Russia does with Ukraine, because frankly it's a fake country created by bolsheviks

Russia is barking up the wrong tree ing with the swedes and finns though, they will push their in deep, take Karelia back, and maybe even keep St Petersburg for lulz

In 1941 Japan felt it had no choice than attack Pearl Harbor after Roosevelt froze all of Japan's assets and oil which accounted for 90% of all oil imported to Japan from US in response to Japanese expansion and attacks on China and South East Asia.

Now history seems to repeating itself. The US and Nato is punishing Russia by wide scale sanctions due to their attack on Ukraine.

Russia feels cornered......

Not saying what is right or wrong here but I see the similarities from 1941 and now.

I don't know if this is the time and the scenario but you almost have to believe that there will be a time and a crazy when these games of russian roulette lead to the firing of a chambered round.

everytime i hear some "expert" claim Putin is bluffing and that we need to call his bluff i cringe.

They only care about you when you’re in.

I don’t think Japan ever had the intention to go war with the usa. The German and Japanese alliance was shaky. Japan was playing both sides carefully.

 

[floridays]

Putin is starting to feel like an animal backed into the corner.

A very dangerous animal...

That animal walked himelf into the corner.
No one forced him to move on Ukraine.
Bad acts/actions have consequences.
To the victor go the spoils.

Yes, they do.

You joined for a silly pension?
I guess that says more about you, individually.

It's a game of Russian Roulette with a semi-automatic.

The pension is a small consolation prize for the average, wrecked life of a 20 year service member.

I joined in October 2001 to kill Mohammeds and stuff.

Ever heard of Pearl Harbor

 

[PT 4 Life]

Ever heard of Pearl Harbor

Yeah that’s after usa sanctioned them though

 

[wilberforce15]

Yeah that’s after usa sanctioned them though

Ssshhhh. We are obligated to believe the attack came from a clear blue sky with no precipitating events from the inhuman, bloodthirsty Japanese.
