It was bound to happen. It is sad nonetheless.

You just propagated a message to the poster as if he was the one that wrote the article.

Those words were not in the New York Post article.

He inserted them in a blurb from a conspiracy theorist book because he wants to link their sacrifice to his isolationist views.

I'd argue they'd rather punch YOU in the face. There's 12 servicemen left, and none of them want to be a part of this. They were SACRIFICED! They know it, we all know it. That's why they are "unable" to attend.

No, toomer brought them in to push his fringe theory.

quote:

The Pearl Harbor advance-knowledge conspiracy theory is rejected by most historians as a fringe theory, citing several key discrepancies and reliance on dubious sources


quote:

Stop pretending to speak for our servicemen. You must love you some war.

No thats what toomer did, none of those vets support his fringe theory, but he basically tried to turn their story into an advertisement for his fringe views.

This is almost a feel good story... In which 12 survivors of Pearl 'Freakn' Harbor are still alive.

In another 10-20 years revisionists will tell us it was staged, fake or didn't happen.. I'm just glad they are with us for another day.

Talk to them; celebrate them; love and cherish them for the heroes they are.

FDR was a communist lover.

Frick him and the communists that served in his cabinet.

quote:

a post WWII Congressional inquiry into the security lapses that resulted in the attack on Pearl Harbor revealed that FDR’s Secretary of War Henry Stimson openly debated how to provoke the Japanese into war.


100% true.

The (commie-run) State Dept goaded Japan into war, negotiated days before Dec 7 for "peace" dishonorable and dishonestly, AND had broken the Jap code months prior to Dec 7, 1941. FDR and his weaselly State Dept They knew damn well exactly when and where the attack was going to occur. We know it was NOT a "surprise attack" at all.

Heck, even citizens were told to expect an imminent attack. there was even this front page headline in the Hilo Tribune dated November 30, 1941.



Little known interesting fact:

During the 1944 presidential campaign, Republican candidate Thomas Dewey was going to go public with the charge that the U.S. had broken the Japanese diplomatic codes and that Roosevelt had advance knowledge of the attack. He was dissuaded by one of Army Chief of Staff George C. Marshall’s assistants not to follow through. The reason? Dewey was shown a letter from Marshall that stated the war effort would be compromised if Japan had learned her codes had been broken. So in other words, an on the fly redaction based on supposed "National Security".

Bottom Line: Notice of the attack at Pearl Harbor was purposely sandbagged. Our poor honorable, innocent sailors never had a chance -- they were sacrificed at the altar of political shenanigans by an immoral, unethical war-mongering State Dept.

It so happens that this "fringe theory" is truth. We have been lied to.

This doesn't however detract from honoring the servicemen living and the dead who were laying their lives on the line and "defending" America.

looked it up and last count was 220,000 Holocaust survivors still walking around average age 87 lmao
If your point is that some people use a (perhaps) overly-broad definition of “holocaust survivor,” I will not disagree with you.

There may well still be 200,000 Jews alive today who were living in Europe at the end of the war, but certainly not 200,000 who were in concentration camps at the end of the war.

well the powers-that-be disagree

quote:

As of April 2025, approximately 220,800 Jewish Holocaust survivors are still alive worldwide, according to a demographic report by the Claims Conference.

Key statistics about the remaining survivors:

The median age of survivors is 87 years old.

More than 1,400 of them are over 100 years old.

The vast majority (96%) were children or adolescents during the war.

Roughly half of all survivors reside in Israel (50%), with 18% in North America (mainly the United States) and 18% in Western Europe.

Projections indicate that 70% of the current survivor population will pass away within the next 10 years.

The diminishing number of first-hand witnesses underscores the urgency of recording and preserving their stories for future generations to combat denial and ensure the history is not forgotten.

There is a time and a place for THAT conversation that, as most things, has at least 2 facets to it.

THIS THREAD is not that place!

Don't dishonor these elderly servants of their country through your poorly-placed, poorly-timed and holier-than-thou statements.

Start your own thread, if you must, but bug off on this one!

But, but, but Kamala Harris thought J6 was worse than Pearl Harbor. How many times did you vote for her?

Which is why I invite you or Toomer to start a new thread that doesnt involve dragging our Pearl Harbor vets into conspiracy theorist lunacy.

Who started this thread? You or Toomer?

There is really something wrong with some of you people. The revelation of Pearl Harbor's dark secret is NOT a "theory" but it IS a "conspiracy TRUTH". (Which you obviously cannot handle.)
