A correction" Roosevelt did not "declare war." Under the U.S. Constitution, Congress declares war
Wasn't the Nusbacher woman a guy who used to work at the Sandhurst Military academy? Or does she have a twin brother?
Daughter I’m guessing , nice to see her father’s enthusiasm continue.
Yeah he’s been transitioning for about 3 years,I noticed on this doc her voice is less manly than when I saw her like n3 years ago.🤔
So the Nusbacher person is a bloke pretending to be a woman or vice versa?
@@paulreilly3904 He was occasionally on the late 90's BBC series Battlefield DVD's in the ask the experts extras. So either he has an identical twin sister, or that was him/ her.
1:55 it always bugs me when a film does not properly tell how the United States should declare war. Roosevelt asked Congress to declare war. At least they stated that Germany declared war on the US
7:58 imagine someone speaking to you like that in real life
Hardly 10 minutes about Singapore 1942.
My father fought the Japanese but would never speak of what happened.
Same as my father
My father did too. He served in the US Navy. He had a 4 letter word for the Japanese. Started with a J
What the earth is this creature?
Japanese really showed their true character.
Atleast these guys learnt to behave
Kohima was indeed the Stalingrad of the East....
Memorial of the Allied Forces in Kohima stands as witness to one of the greatest battle in British History....

British were evil as much as Japanese especially if you consider the atrocities they committed in their colonies
That's why they deserved to see the sun. Two suns.
I like Tony's narratives but they are light on the REAL truth, example, usa NAVAL strength in Dec 1841 was SIGNIFICANT, but you will it hard to find definitive numbers, however just 6 months after Pearl Harbour the Americans decisively defeated the Japanese in the naval engagement at Midway, losses at Pearl were NOT significant in context to the size of the US Navy at all and all but 3 of the vessels were repaired, by the end of 1945 the US was operating 7,600 vessels in it's navy, so the continual diatribe about Pearl Harbour being a major disaster is not real , it was a MINOR thawn that was quickly removed, that is just one anomaly with Tony's banter, there are many others.
gotta love the west underestimating Asian opponents over and over again.
Propaganda, but NOT History, has led us to believe that the Empire of Japan began its territorial expansion in the 1930’s, invading China, creating the puppet State of Manchukuo and “Provoking” the war with the Western Powers. But, Was this really, how events happened? Did Japan invade China and South East Asia? It seems so. However, the Propaganda does NOT say that for centuries, all Asia was invaded by Western Powers. England occupied India, Burma (Myanmar); Singapore, Burma, Malaysia and China (Hong Kong, Nanking, Shanghai, etc). France dominated all Indochina. The Netherlands intervened by the Force of its Arms, to all of Indonesia. And Belgium, Germany, Portugal, Spain, and of course, also the United States were in South East Asia cuz, for example this country, the US, occupied the Philippines since 1898. (Spanish-American War). Thus the panorama in the 30's, the Empire of Japan, when defeating to the Tsarist Russian Empire, it also decided to "Grow" by invading its neighbors. In those years, all European nations had colonies in Africa, India, the Middle East, Asia and America. (England came to occupy almost ¼ part of the planet). For its part, the US, in 113 years of existence as a nation in those years, had "Grown" 711 the size of its territory from its original 13 colonies. Now is the picture clear? Japan for its part, had fought on the side of the winners in World War I (1914-1918), and they, the Japanese, not awarded any "Gain". The western victors of WWI divided the world. Japan was excluded. Thus, Japan's motives for attacking and expanding as the Europeans and the US did seem clearer, right? Then they, the Japanese, attacked China in 30’s, which was occupied by 6 Western Powers for almost a century. None of the Western Powers occupying China at this time, OPPOSED or fought Japan for Invading China. NONE! Then, 11 years later after having occupied the territory of China and coexisted without any problem with the Western Powers within China, they, the Japanese, attacked Hawaii, which in turn, this Island had been occupied and annexed by the US in 1898. (In 1900-01, Hawaii became US territory and Hawaii ceased to be an independent nation after more than 630 years of sovereignty. By the time Japan attacked Pearl Harbor, the United States had just completed the 40th anniversary of the military occupation and annexation of Hawaii). They, the Japanese, attacked Singapore, which was then a Colony of England. They, the Japanese, attacked the Philippines, which were occupied by the US and whose Gov’r, Douglas MacArthur reined as Emperor. Yup… Truly like an Absolute Autocrat. Therefore, the Japanese did NOT attack (In the 40’s), Singapore, Burma, China, Indonesia, Malaysia, Borneo, Timor, the Philippines, etc. In reality, the Japanese attacked England, France, Belgium, Holland, the US, etc. That is, the Japanese attacked the Western Powers invading all of Asia. That is the verifiable truth. The Empire of Japan didn’t invade. Japan fought against the Invaders.
Gotta love that the East has made the same mistake about the West.
You do realize Japan didn’t think much of Americans ..neither did Germany they all thought America was nothing but playboys that we wouldn’t have the stomach to put up a real fight that’s why Japan decided to bomb Pearl Harbor it was an attempt to demoralize us before we could even attempt to get going.
