The War of 1812 was caused by a Youtube video

They didn’t lose America in the first civil war...

I mean its a choice of perspective, and by no means do I exonerate the West for their colonial sins.

Non expansionist?

Seems like reaching for anything bad about Mattis at all. Maybe just trying not to come off as nut-swinging since Mattis is awesome?

If it is gonna be like latest Admiral Kuznetzov charade, it will be smoking like mad, going as fast as fishing trawlers, 2 planes will crash on it, therefore they will move all plane activity on landlock airfield and 2months later they will go home for several years of repairs and upgrades.

Considering we don’t even recognize ISIS as a nation (nor should we), what exactly do you want Congress to declare war on? An idea?

Cannot have a discussion with someone who only hears what they want to. Enjoy your echo chamber, it seems to be doing you so well.

I am so tired of hearing this non-sense. I guess we should have invaded Japan and lost a million Americans lives, rather than nuke them.

“And considering the U.S. is the only country to have used them, to the tune of hundreds of thousands of dead Japanese civilians, some would say that the U.S. is the one people should be fearing...”

No bias evident there at all. Not like you come across as having an agenda. Nope, nothing wrong here.

Which country do you prefer? I have lived in 6 states and 3 countries. The US isn’t perfect by any means. That being said keyboard warriors such as yourself with an agenda love to view history through a very narrow lens. It doesn’t matter which country you are educated in if you shun any source that doesn’t agree with…

Gotta love you knuckleheads. US used nukes and killed innocent civilians during ww2! How Evil!

Or, we could have let you keep your money and you’d be speaking German now. You expected us to defend you for free? It doesn’t work that way, sunshine, if you want our help, prepare to pay for it. Otherwise ask Russia, or China, maybe they’ll help you...

Safe to say that while the U.S. did indeed use nuclear weapons, it was over 70 years ago, and the people making those decisions aren’t in charge now. Hell, the people making the decisions now were either not even born yet, or were very young children at that point. Claiming “but we used them!” is technically true, and…

I’m not sure Oliver Stone is the best source of accurate, unbiased information. I saw the series too and while I found it thought provoking with some points worthy of further study I would only take it as at best one thread in a tapestry.

Go back to your hole commie.

Yep, all those battles between Japan and Russia between 1941 and 1945.

Nope, otherwise we’d still be crying over Japan *cough*

And I find it rather funny that the Democrats’ complaint boils down to “The Russians released our emails to the American public!”

No evidence has actually been given. Just vague accusations. Though, Obama did give taxpayer money to the opposition of Netanyahu during Israeli election season. And Obama did have a foray into British politics by taking a stance on Brexit.
