U.S. aircraft carriers and the ILLUSION of global dominance

Kamikaze + Aircraft Carrier = Sunk

America is being "protected" by World War II technology: a navy of surface ships and expensive tanks that make easy targets for modern missile systems.

But even in World War II our navy ships were being sunk by the dozen. The U.S. Navy is good to bully small helpless nations. Against a modern navy our ships are scrap metal.

The Aircraft Carrier USS St. Lo

Sunk by Japanese kamikaze aircraft on 25 October 1944 in the Battle of Leyte Gulf.  A total of 57 ships were sunk by Japanese kamikazes including 3 aircraft carriers and 14 destroyers.  Some 368 other ships were damaged.  About 4,900 sailors were killed and over 4,800 wounded.
.
Call me crazy, but if an aircraft carrier can be sunk by a "primitive" propeller driven fighter plane one has to ask how long these ultra-expensive ships will remain afloat in an age of modern missile technology or jet fighters piloted by Muslim suicide bombers.

Nazi Honored By Canadian Parliament

Internet Click Bait

• Everyone wants to scream Nazi on the internet for "clicks". 

• While Canada has indeed gone fucking nuts, it needs to be understood that large numbers of non-Germans were fighting on the Eastern Front to stop Communism. Hitler's Holocaust was kept secret. The troops saw Stalin as the threat. 

Friends of the Simon Wiesenthal Center, a Canadian Jewish human rights organization, slammed the Canadian parliament Sunday for giving a standing ovation to a Ukrainian Nazi during President Volodymyr Zelensky’s visit Friday.

Yaroslav Hunka, 98, was introduced by Speaker Anthony Rota of Prime Minister Justin Trudeau’s Liberal Party as a “Ukrainian-Canadian war veteran from the Second World War who fought for Ukrainian independence against the Russians, and continues to support the troops today. … He’s a Ukrainian hero, a Canadian hero, and we thank him for all his service.”

Rota’s historical illiteracy, however, tripped him up: some nationalist movements in Eastern Europe who fought against the Soviets later aligned with the invading Nazi forces, including in Ukraine.

Rebel News, a conservative Canadian outlet, noted: “As many as 2,000 Waffen SS soldiers of Ukrainian heritage, including Yaroslav Hunka, changed their identities and masqueraded as ‘refugees’ before capture to seek refuge in Canada in the 1950s.” The unit had actually fought against Canadians in Italy during the war, Rebel News added.

Formed in 1943, it was surrendered to the Western Allies by 10 May 1945. In the background are Galychyna Division flags. Lviv is one of Ukraine’s four cities that will co-host with Poland the Euro 2012 soccer tournament. (AP Photo/Petro Zadorozhnyy)

Muslim Waffen SS

The 13th Waffen Mountain Division of the SS Handschar (1st Croatian) was a mountain infantry division of the Waffen-SS.

The division was named Handschar (Serbo-Croatian: Handžar), after a local fighting knife or scimitar carried by Ottoman policemen during the centuries that the region was part of the Ottoman Empire. It was the first non-Germanic Waffen-SS division, and its formation marked the expansion of the Waffen-SS into a multi-ethnic military force. Composed mainly of Bosnian Muslims.

The Latvian Waffen SS

The legion consisted of two divisions of the Waffen-SS: 15th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (1st Latvian) and the 19th Waffen Grenadier Division of the SS (2nd Latvian).

Most Americans do not understand that the entire Russian front in World War II was manned by non-German Waffen SS units and allied armies from Finland down to Romania.  The insane racist policies of the Nazis were not on the minds of the eastern Europeans.  It was a war against the Communist Soviet Union.

During World War II, the Waffen-SS recruited significant numbers of non-Germans, both as volunteers and conscripts. In total some 500,000 non-Germans and ethnic Germans from outside Germany, mostly from German-occupied Europe, were recruited between 1940 and 1945.

America Did Not Win WWII in Europe

.

If you believe Hollywood, America just marched into Europe and kicked the crap out of the Nazis. Game over. We won.

That was always a fantasy and sadly it has badly colored our foreign policy to this day.

For example, of the 376,000 casualties on the Italian front alone only 31% were Americans. The rest were British Empire troops, Poles, Canadians and more.

On the Eastern Front, Russia crushed Germany and was marching on Warsaw and Berlin before a single soldier landed at Normandy.

It was and is an illusion that America is this vast Superpower. We just barely held our own in Korea and were defeated in Vietnam and Afghanistan. As a bonus we cannot even defend our own borders.

Now we pretend we can bully powers like Russia and China.

Ukraine - The Elites DEMAND that we care about Ukraine to the point of a World War III. Just like they demanded that you care about every other war they wanted from "The Shores of Tripoli" to exterminating the Indians to the U.S. invasion of Mexico in 1914 to the invasion of Syria.

But movies like Dr. Stangelove, All Quiet on the Western Front and Kelly's Heroes showed me the eternal insanity of mankind.

I refuse to buy into their eternal war BS.

Happy Memorial Day

Least We Forget

Always honor the soldier, but always question the sanity of the generals & politicians.

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces. The holiday, which is observed every year on the last Monday of May, originated as Decoration Day after the American Civil War in 1868, when the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization of Union veterans — established it as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of the war dead with flowers. 

By the 20th century, competing Union and Confederate holiday traditions, celebrated on different days, had merged, and Memorial Day eventually extended to honor all Americans who died while in the military service.

The first widely-publicized observance of a Memorial Day-type observance after the Civil War was in Charleston, South Carolina, on May 1, 1865.

Copying an idea that began in the Southern states, on May 5, 1868, in his capacity as commander-in-chief of the Grand Army of the Republic, the veterans' organization for Union Civil War veterans, General John A. Logan issued a proclamation calling for "Decoration Day" to be observed annually and nationwide.

Memorial events were held in 183 cemeteries in 27 states in 1868, and 336 in 1869. The northern states quickly adopted the holiday.

General Logan proclaimed the first "Decoration Day" to honor the fallen soldiers of the American Civil War.  He served the state of Illinois as a State Senator, a Congressman, a U.S. Senator and was an unsuccessful candidate for Vice President of the United States with James G. Blaine in the election of 1884.

The Star Spangled Banner at Fort McHenry

Oh! thus be it ever, when freemen shall stand
Between their loved home and the war's desolation!
Blest with victory and peace, may the heav'n rescued land
Praise the Power that hath made and preserved us a nation.
Then conquer we must, when our cause it is just,
And this be our motto: "In God is our trust."
And the star-spangled banner in triumph shall wave
O'er the land of the free and the home of the brave!

The Other Greatest Generation

Memorial Day is a federal holiday in the United States for remembering the people who died while serving in the country's armed forces. 

The holiday, which is observed every year on the last Monday of May, originated as Decoration Day after the American Civil War in 1868, when the Grand Army of the Republic, an organization of Union veterans founded in Decatur, Illinois, established it as a time for the nation to decorate the graves of the Union war dead with flowers. 

By the 20th century, competing Union and Confederate holiday traditions, celebrated on different days, had merged, and Memorial Day eventually extended to honor all Americans who died while in the military service. It typically marks the start of the summer vacation season, while Labor Day marks its end.

The first widely publicized observance of a Memorial Day-type observance after the Civil War was in Charleston, South Carolina, on May 1, 1865. During the war, Union soldiers who were prisoners of war had been held at the Hampton Park Race Course in Charleston; at least 257 Union prisoners died there and were hastily buried in unmarked graves. 

Together with teachers and missionaries, black residents of Charleston organized a May Day ceremony in 1865, which was covered by the New York Tribune and other national papers. The freedmen cleaned up and landscaped the burial ground, building an enclosure and an arch labeled "Martyrs of the Race Course". Nearly 10,000 people, mostly freedmen, gathered on May 1 to commemorate the war dead. Involved were about 3,000 school children, newly enrolled in freedmen's schools, as well as mutual aid societies, Union troops, black ministers and white northern missionaries. Most brought flowers to lay on the burial field.

David W. Blight described the day:

This was the first Memorial Day. African Americans invented Memorial Day in Charleston, South Carolina. What you have there is black Americans recently freed from slavery announcing to the world with their flowers, their feet, and their songs what the war had been about. What they basically were creating was the Independence Day of a Second American Revolution.

Ballad of the Green Mountain Boys

We owe no allegiance, we bow to no throne,
Our ruler is law and the law is our own;
Our leaders themselves are our own fellow-men,
Who can handle the sword and the scythe and the pen
Hurrah for Vermont! For the land that we till
Must have sons to defend her from valley and hill
Our vow is recorded--our banner unfurled,
In the name of Vermont we defy all the world!
Then cheer, cheer, the green mountaineer, then cheer, cheer the green mountaineer
