didn't have any funding to offend any "voters" - infact they probably blame the USA for it - which was certainly NOT what was going on back then

little red riding hood

CNN FOX CBS ABC et al ... they made sure their websites had a cheap icon for pearl harbor day

BUT THEY DIDN'T SAY A WORD ABOUT IT ALL DAY - i just happened to have scanned channels that day on and off all day

not a fucking word anyone would have could have seen had "any average person" had the chance to see

Okay, Gramps.

Aren't any of your nieces or nephews planning to visit you today?
I told you before to get yourself a supply of Werner's Caramels and they will Visit once again.

Pearl Harbor is important - and easy - to remember

To remember US had just come home Victory day from a huge war - WWWII - the country was at ease.

To remember in japan - families were being killed for coal wholesale, and other atrocities by government.

To remember USA, HAD THEY NOT HAD THEIR PANTS DOWN, could have avoided a hugely tragic war - the war with Japan, merely by having the ships and strength to prevent it from "lingering on".

INSTEAD - A WHOLE FLEET OR MORE suddenly sunk, and put USA behind the ball to defend their coast in what turned out to be a long hard war.

and to remember the tragedy on California families there

Before Clinton, California was still renovating Pearl Harbor for tourism purposes: Millenials had no idea the funding was pulled and toyed with by "evil democrats".

SUICIDE BOMBER PILOTS

smoke and sunken ships as far as the eye could see

no one expected it or guess what was going on who wasn't close enough to port to see kamikaze flying into ships



the "leader for life" government of japan had ordered peasants to fly german design aircraft into ships - SUICIDE BOMBERS (kamikaze)

A WHOLE US FLEET WAS CRIPPLED - we didn't have "another fleet" to immediately react - they don't grow on trees

perhaps the first presidential order - to order south and east ships to immediately make way for the west coast

Have you thought of putting more fiber in your diet?

Old people get so cranky when they get blocked up.

SUICIDE BOMBERS

the japanese were ordered to unload their bombs and to use their plane and body as a bomb after

they flew their planes into US vessels at soldiers - not even bothering to jump out - THEY WERE SUICIDE BOMBERS

We know what Kamikazee pilots were. Do you have anything to add or are just in one of those Geezer states a person gets into when they are dismissed as irrelevant?

Eisenhower didn't like MacArthur - a war bird to say the least.

The generals knew they couldn't let "all of asia show up on California beach" - it would mean THE END.

They had to cross the sea - the Pacific was immense for their small ships (they needed a barage of fuel barges to get there - which were sunk by privy japanese)

Huge losses were taken at sea getting USA on the other side of the pacific where they could fight and win.

US had bases here and there - and MacArthur not only knew he had to keep them to avoid "doing all that ever again" - but his plan was to help any asians who petitioned to be "a free country" to do so to help him stay - even though it meant after defeating Japan - that USA was still not finished

People hated MacArthur - saying he was an old war bird starting conflicts for no reason - dabbling in little asian countries USA had no interest in.

but this is another day in TRYING to get supply ships across the pacific - the japanese did everything they could to prevent USA from getting any foothold on any asian island anywhere in the pacific

USA, again, got hammered trying to establish bases on the east side of the pacific

To make a long story short, War is hell.

Okay Geezer.

MacArthur (usa) went to vietnam, korea, phillipines, hawaii, tailand, indonesia before and during the war with japan. It was not just getting there - once they got there it was providing for an army that WAS there.

In the end the japanese didn't surrender to US presence that would have dragged on much longer the usa "was not winning the ground war" - they surrendered to "the bomb". They absolutely would not have surrendered anywhere near the time as far as the war at sea or ground was concerned.

WE CAN STILL WONDER if MacArthur was too hasty to support his east pacific bases to ignore alternatives to conflicts - perhaps operating bases on un-settled land "with or without permission" rather than supporting civil wars by freedom seekers

After all - MacArthur was not a man who was dispositioned to solve things by talk - he was going to have his bases he wasn't going to see a future of crossing that ocean again. He'd been through hell and back twice (WWII then Japan) and nearly got NUKED by Germany in the end. I doubt you could have convinced him to sit around and talk about protecting the USA.

His father died at Pearl Harbor. At his age, God will soon stop him from posting for Good.
