They were an ally?

They invaded their own colonies?
This is also utterly incorrect. Japan had been under a 'Moral Embargo' since 1938 due to the use of airplanes against China. That embargo was non-binding though and finally became official with the Export Control Act passed in July of 1940.
Japan began occupying French Indochina after the French fell in Europe, having made an official request to the colonial government to station troops there. This was the first embargo of several important raw materials, after September 1940. The US also did not like the fact that the Japanese signed the Tripartite Pact at the same time as well. The final straw was when Japan invaded southern Indochina while the US was negotiating to de-escalate the situation there.
The idea that he was solely responsible somehow without taking into account the bad-faith negotiations of the Japanese is pretty dishonest.

C-117 refuelers
I hate to be "that guy", but there is no such thing. The C-17 Globemaster is the backbone of USAF's intermediate/long range transport fleet, but there is no refueler variant.
(Not counting the smaller USN stuff) we have 4 refuelers - a C-130 variant (HC-130J), a variant of the DC-10 (KC-10), a 767 variant (KC-46) and a sibling of the 707 (KC-135).

Still wrong. There is no C-117 anything in the air force. There used to be an F-117 stealth thing.

So, I am not conveying precisely what the guy said, sorry. Watch some of the video and you will understand the magnitude of what he is showing.

Whatever happened to the F-117’s? Such an awesome design that we seemingly ditched as soon as we fielded it, or at least before it got any significant use.
F-22 is headed that way. It may never be used in actual combat before it’s retired in the next decade or so.

We’re now sending offensive weapons in next aide package. Up until today it has always been “defensive and protection”.
Let’s see what Russia does.

Dems, the war party now
What we’ve witnessed the past several years is the coming out of the uniparty/NWO Globalists that are no longer hiding themselves. When it comes down to it the vast majority of DC politicians, the bureaucrats that comprise the federal government, corporate honchos, etc. are really on the same team, kinda like that ol George Carlin quip…
Any hoot, it’s really isn’t Dims who are now pro war, they’re always been pro war if they believe it helps them politically or if they believe it’s what’s best for the DC Swamp system.
Look at Mark Levin, Hannity, a lot of Recucklicans in the house and senate, they’re lock step with the Biden regime in supporting Ukraine fighting a US/NATO proxy war with Russia…..the EU and Biden are trying to goad Putin into attacking a NATO member country so our military can start sending over the good military armaments.

Any idea which weapons/systems are in the new package?
Half of NATO has been sending them mobile rocket/missile launchers, self-propelled artillery, drones, and armored vehicles for months.

Not even close. He seized Japanese assets in the United States and cut off petroleum shipments to Japan. Japan received over 90% of its oil from the United States. The only other supply for Japan's oil needs was the Dutch East Indies. Well, the East Indies, at the urging of the Allies, broke its treaty with Japan, placing them in a most precarious situation.
In essence, we entered into World War II because of global petroleum politics. Hmm....
And we had broken the code before Pearl Harbor, and for some unknown unexplicable reason ALL our aircraft carriers were missing from Pearl on that fateful morning...but hey who am I to question.....

Obsolete. It was stealth at the expense of everything else. Most fifth generation stuff has organic stealth built in with much higher capabilities.

Focused...probably not. However, they were definitely putting on Mao and the communists.

The likes of the Rothschild / Illuminati / Globalist that created the Fed Reserve, Gold Standard, IMF aka Global Banking Cabal have been
INSTIGATING & FUNDING both sides of MANY WARS for centuries. They have a WIN-WIN STRATEGY!
Once you figure out the money & resources at stake for each “Play of War”, then it all makes sense.
And while they play “Bloody versions of Monopoly” and destroy everything in its path, they
PRINT TAXPAYER MONEY To fund it
They sell the weapons thru Defense Contractors thru brokered deals made by the CIA/Pentagon & kickbacks go into the UNIPARTY offshore accounts.
They blow up countries with those same weapons
Take over control & place their people into power with regime takeovers.
Take over the natural resources, oil, mining etc…
Then we print more money for “COUNTRY REBUILDING” for the same sh&t that they instigated and corrupted on the front end.
It’s a global money laundering scheme that has no sides, either your on their team or your not, and if your not, they are sending you or loved ones to war.
They are devaluing your monetary situation and quality of life.
Repubs & Democrats have been co-mingling for a very long time.
It’s just gotten more agressive the last couple decades & Trump finally started peeling the onion!
War is a Money Maker & Power Grab, that’s basis of rhe Civil War even though they want to paint it as the war on slavery, it is always about the money & power, people need engrain that in their heads.
They all in it together, the Swamp must be drained globally!
We about to be in WWIII
Oil & energy shortages
Rolling blackouts
Food shortages
& everyone is running around talking about social issues that won’t matter when the house of cards collapses on PURPOSE by our Heathen Overlords!
Knuckle up Patriots, it’s about to get real! And rheas Pansy Liberal Punks on this board have no idea what to do once the shut hits the fan, but I know the good ol’ baws are Prepped & Ready!

What is this thread all about? Have we really been building up forces in Europe? Did this suddenly happen or have they been doing this slowly and covertly?
