World History- "You can have a large, low tech military or a small, high tech military."
U.S.A- "Hold my beer."
The UK had a large and powerful high tech navy in 1800 however their army wasn’t as powerful, but yes the USA somehow manages to have all categories, Air, Naval, Ground and Nuclear a very very huge quantity and of course, their technological capabilities are intensely good.
@@Nonamelol. It's because we found the cheat codes in Age of Empires multiplayer.
You forgot Space and Cyber; again, same story.
well, our Navy and Air force are huge. And I would agee that our Army and Marine ground troops are the best trained standard army the world has ever seen, but our ground forces would be destroyed if we got locked in a land war. Ground war, in general, should be long over and Russia is showing why right now. Its brutal and almost entirely unpredictable. In the air and the sea, it does not matter how hard you want to fight, technology will win every time. However, on the ground it is a different story. The slower pace, the use of cover and maneuvers, the fact destroying the vehicles doesn't mean the fight is over, and the role morale can play in ground combat means that a ground war is a crap shoot at best. Don't give the enemy a chance to make martyrs, don't give the people of the enemy reason to hate your people because of brutal ground war, and most importantly don't hand the enemy an opportunity to steal a win when you should only ever offer the opportunity to surrender.
180 million civilians/ex military = the secret, final boss fight. the one most experts forget to warn u about
Not mentioned is the nearly 500,000,000 firearms in its citizens hands, and over 1 Trillion rounds of ammo. Making it the largest military in the world, on its own unique territories. In fact, its citizens possess more small arms ammo, than the US military.
Yes we do 🤙🏻
Yup! Great forward thinking by the founding fathers!!
Better quality firearms than the military also. I wont disclose how many I have in my home lol.
In addition, there would be a Butt-Ton of Veterans, hunters, trail hikers and wilderness enthusiasts who'd be able to quickly train, organize and deploy local defenses.
Just like they say Yamamoto said, behind every blade of grass is an American with a gun. Not sure if that was actually said but it is true, any invader to our Country wouldn't only be dealing with our military, they'd be dealing with ALL of us.
🙏🏻 I’m American and I consider all our allies brothers and sisters. Stay blessed y’all
But are our Allie’s really Allie’s?
@@I_give_up_already to oversimplify yes, not even the most vocally opposed, like china or Russia either considering that’s a large part of their trade.
I don't trust certain "allies" like Turkey, Saudi Arabia, France, any Balkan states...
I've got my eye on those snowbacks up North, too!😂😂😂
@@shawnarthur1516 The army and SF have a close relationship with Turkey..lot of cross training so you may be surprised.
@@shawnarthur1516this take is reductivist. You should zoom into the specific families and areas. We have a lot of diehard allies in the regions you specified
We love the Brits here in the US. The Anglo-sphere is very culturally united. The American/British/Australian/Canadian bond is particularly strong.
Also imagine that a large number of us citizens can trace their ancestors back to Europe
Don't forget NZ! I, personally, LOVE Kiwis!
@@shawnarthur1516 OH yes! NZ as well! How could I leave out the kiwis. For shame!
@kaiser9109 True. However, out group preference and self hatred is kind of a thing with many European descended Americans. I'm not sure what it is like in the Common Wealth countries, but upper middle class to upper class white kids are fairly self loathing in the US.
Isn’t Japan also a big ally
"I'm just gunna sit there, drink my tea, and get on with life" is possibly the most British thing I've never heard.
Could also be very southern in America, very alike in that way I think.
So much wisdom.
Lol yes. Drink my British tea and carry on. You will always be our allies U.K. Californian here.
@@Northbravo Sweet tea mind you, us southerners have standards!
That's all fine and well until troops are walking down your street and you can't make your tea anymore😅
The one thing that never gets addressed either is whether the US decides to fight a "nice" war or not. As history has shown us. the US fighting for perceived self preservation is an entirely different beast than the US fighting for more "diplomatic" or "economic" reasons. If you want an example of the US fighting without taking diplomacy into account at all, ask Japan.
It said no nuclear weapons would be allowed.
@@stephanien2323 those bombs were not nuclear if I recall.... Not to mention the non nuclear bombs Americans have now are 100 times more powerful just rarely used....
@@stephanien2323 I stand corrected they were nuclear but still Americans have bigger missiles that are not nuclear
@@stephanien2323 firebombing killed about more Japanese than the two nuclear strikes and we had plans to make it more deadly... before we dropped the nukes...
@@brandonpearson4142 No, we don't. The only bombs we have that are larger than those Atomic bombs are larger Nukes. No conventional bomb comes anywhere close to the 2 bombs dropped on Japan.
One thing that makes me glad to live in the U.S. is our military. There’s not much any other country can do. We have so much protection plus most of our citizens are armed to the teeth as well
Yep. Nation Guard (Army and Air Force) and then private civilians being 2A and survivalists enthusiasts.
Until they turn on us😂
Facts
Yes. That also increase the possibility of Civil war in US. We saw in last election how things can escalate. Also Americans don't need invasion/ Terror attack.
More american die every year due to Mass shooting. Atleast other parts of the world can send their children to school without worry. Guns in everybody's hand only cause caos Sooner / laters.
well, an armed insurrection literally took our capitol 2 years ago...... so...... we are not as secure as you might think. and the shitty part is, we dont know if that faction will be in jail or in office 2 years from now
I've actually seen the Suez Canal when I was stationed in Egypt in the US Army. It is a very small waterway, practically a ditch; so it is no surprise to me that modern tankers routinely get stuck, and I can assure you it would be no problem to render it inoperative.
America thinks of Britain as a slightly disapproving and nagging mother that we rarely listen to but secretly care about.
That one relative at a party that you can just vibe with without having to say or do much, but are totally cool to hang out with each other with no pressure to entertain one another. That's how I see it at least, lol.
@@h.s.6269 Canada, Australia, Britian, etc. We're all family. We all have our arguments, but you mess with my brother/cousin/etc we gonna knock the socks off ya. lol I'd never want to actually fight any of them, despite the bickering we have between each other.
It's more like the older brother from Peaky Binders.
@@OutlawCaliber13 I agree with that and I think that's why when 9/11 hit it was like Thanksgiving day and someone threw food at the cook... They get the wrath of the family, for their own good as a behavioral check.
Britain thinks of USA as the aggravating teenage brother. Highly inflated sense of self importance, stupidly obsessed with Patriotism with some ridiculous laws but despite our differences ....
Will automatically stand with/ for the US if someone comes and bullies them. That's what brothers do. They spend most of their time bickering or arguing but will stick up for each other
“You cannot invade the mainland United States. There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”
― Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto
That's right!
Is that an actual quote? Because it sounds both real and fake at the same time.
Yes, admiral Yamamoto also was known for stating that we have woken up a sleeping giant
@@shotguntony4730 Yes. Yamamoto knew he had started a fight he ultimately could not win.
@@randolphvanhook5829 Dang.
You know you're a boss when people feel comfort by just saying "We're friends"
Anybody else find it amazing that the US has the world in check at every turn?
It really doesn't, at all. This scenario is hopelessly unrealistic.
@@Christobanistan usa economy is the lynch pin as its integrated almost everywhere on earth id like to see the number of countries that run almost exclusively on us investment for example Mexico makes almost 30 percent of income on money sent to the country from people who have family in the usa
Which is scary even as an American
@@Christobanistan No, its pretty realistic....
@@FloridaMan_omega So if the whole world attacks America, defending itself would be " flipping the fucking board over?" Not sure how, but okay.
Personally, if I was facing extinction at the hand of foreign powers, I'd hope my government would do whatever it had to to defend my life (and freedom).
The U. S. military capability and readiness is far far more advanced than any public subject graphic presentation could ever disclose. If this presentation left you with a chill, the truth of our actual capability would leave you frozen. Our readiness objective, however, is to defend and detour; not fight. It's only reassuring to know you have in excess of what's required to do either tactical approach successfully.
Imagine the World if China was the world power instead ?
I sincerely hope so. 🙏

Haters goin’ hate
I thought the exact same thing! Love these two
The world loves America, even the places we bomb.
You’re right! We are friends. My dad hails from Liverpool and my mum is American. I have dual citizenship, and will always love both countries. I am also a firm 2nd amendment advocate and believe that behind our amazing military we have citizens that would take up arms against any threat. Myself included. My AR is for protection from all threats, foreign and domestic. Don’t worry, the United States has got you covered!
I'm a proud gun owner and big 2nd amendment supporter. My 9 guns of all types and 18,000 or so rounds of ammo stored up in ammo cans shows that. But the reality is in today's wars people like us aren't gonna be able to defeat an enemy with fighter bomber jets and tanks etc. It's silly to think we could repel an enemy with a real army and those type of weapons to use against us.
Don't at all underestimate the capabilities of England. I think you would be amazed at what your country is fully capable of when it comes down to war. Very impressive indeed!!
Not as amazed as you would be by us. I.e. revolutionary war. You know when you were the sole superpower
And just remember this is only the declassified information I've always been taught our military is 20 years ahead of what we currently know.
Exactly lol I've always said if it's on RUclips or Facebook it's more or less ancient and way less advanced then what they really have lmao
Don't forget the USA citizen population possess about 40% of the worlds firearms making those citizens a well equipped Militia force be threatened by foreign or domestic enemy forces
I feel like the current administration would just surrender and actively attack Americans
I just looked up that stat. 120.5 hand guns per citizen in the U.S. Thats not even other weapons....

She says if there's such a war, "I'm just gonna sit down and drink my tea." Now that's not only funny, but a good amount of common sense. 😆
Just for anyone wondering: OPEC stands for The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries. Also, the Suez Canal is one of the busiest trade routes in the world, with approximately 12% of total global trade moving through it. Energy exports like liquified natural gas, Crude oil, and refined oil make up 5% to 10% of global shipments.
I always thought it stood for oil-producing economic community.
@@genodalbec1163 if you look it up it says what i wrote but i agree with you that that definition makes more sense
OPEC
Organized. Politically.
Economic.Corruption.
Oh...i thought it was the Petroleum Exploitation system 😂. Maybe thats just to the arm chairs.
It is a 14 country group.
Well when Americans say. “We have all the oil we need here, why the heck are we still buying it from overseas!?!?” So we don’t have to use it in case this happens. It’s called combat readiness. And keeping our oil reserves is a major part of protecting the homeland. Pretty simple.
Also I can imagine that other military commanders aren't as stupid as yours and they do know where the reserve is and how many seconds it will last once you start dropping guided bombs on those resevoir tanks. The whole thing is sitting in Elmwood, which is close to New Orleans.
Shhhhh that is a secret.
America is selling its oil overseas, it should be using it, become energy independent, and spend our taxes here.
@@Maples01
You are talking about the same mind set of American companies that exported whole industries offshore to make money. This will be their great undoing.
@@JB-yb4wn Heavily taxing them, license, fees, etc and you don't think they will relocate elsewhere. Why must they pay taxes, you realize the money isn't even spent in America, our government blows our money all over the globe, then borrow more, promising we pay that back too, and give it away, foreign aid, buy friends, pay nations to make nice, its all theft! Taxation is theft, we've come full circle and are right back where the colonists were, being robbed by the kingdom!
For everything the common man knows (like the guy(s) who made this video), there's something, even if only a work in progress, that is highly classified and kept under wraps for tactical advantage. Even if the US didn't have the best military in terms of equipment and preparedness, it's true strength lies in its ability to take its time and strategize the best possible course of action and then make that happen.
"Oh wait, we're not brother and sister..." LMAO! I wasn't even thinking that, but it was hilarious regardless. :D
Thank you for what you do. I am from the USA and it is so nice to see that people have such high respect for our people and Country. Normally we are hearing, how big of assholes we are. The majority of Americans are not assholes. We are just as respectful of others as they are to us. If you get my meaning. We have respect for others until they give us a reason to do otherwise.

Trust me when I say that the U.S. military technology is at least 20 years ahead of anything publicly known about our weapons systems
Us citizens can buy rail guns as easy as anything just amagine what they have
I will certainly trust you Mr Random RUclipsr
If you think that Europe and stuff are that much behind you're delusional
@@MrKylljoy lol Europe is not as heavily invested into weapons R&D. If you think any nation has a military that can rival the U.S. technologically then you are the one that is delusional.
@@MrKylljoy I'm American and not proud of it but it's mostly true, most of the military tech in Europe came from us to begin with, right after 9/11 we were literally spending more on our military than the entire rest of the world combined, it's even more absurd when you consider we probably have one of the the most enviably easily defendable positions on earth, with mass quantities of every vital resource. No one has seen the US military go even close to all out since World War Two, if we actually mass mobilized it would be horrifying, even without our nuclear arsenal.
I'm most curious about our ability to knock out other countries'electric and communications grids, as well as our own susceptibility. Our domestic infrastructure is WAAAY behind where it should be, cost of having an empire 😥

I’m a US citizen. My father is retired military. Having grown up I’ve never had the feeling the US ever to want or feel it needed to conquer the world. A super power who’s directive is be able to fight 2 wars simultaneously is sure winner for any country. The money spent yearly on our defense budget for the military is and has been more then many GDPs countries around the world. That being said the movie War Games comes to mind when the computer simulations at NORAD plays out scenarios only to conclude the best to win the war is not to play the game.
+ Romans 10:9-10 "That if you confess with your mouth, "Jesus is Lord," and believe in your heart that God raised him from the dead, you will be saved. For it is with your heart that you believe and are justified, and it is with your mouth that you confess and are saved." Amen 🙏!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Just one thing to add to this. US military doctrine is not “two major theater wars”. It has been, for decades, the capability to conduct two major theater wars AND a “police action” elsewhere. So, basically, two and a half war actions in different areas of the globe. Simultaneously.
It's now down to 1 major theater war + a small action on the side.
We are down to 10 carriers, 9 since we are pulling one off the line and modifying and refitting it to carry the F-35A.
Also the Navy is looking at reducing that even more.
@@pogo1140 oh trust me, no the hell they are not. Being part of a military family that's pretty deep into it, we are only bolstering our forces. Can't and won't say how nor with what, but trust me when I say this, we have added a whole 1940's America worth of power to our military in relative terms in the past 5 years alone.
@@pogo1140 we've already developed a stealth destroyer. Some of our ships have railguns.
@@pogo1140 lol our ability to handle multiple theaters of war has not diminished, it has increased if anything.
@@H3LLS4NG3L The Total number of aircraft carriers that the US Navy can send to assist the one in the Med or to open up another front in the Baltic is 1, and only because that 1 is already at sea acting as a training ship. As of 2020, the USAF was looking at reducing tac air flight hours from 200hrs to 150hrs or so. (that's still better than the Russian average of 60-100hrs/yr but it's a level that guarantees loss of skills) Mission capable rates should be at 80%, they are closer to 60% though the USAF is reporting in the 70+% by not counting planes that are in storage or depot level maintenance.
To put your minds at ease, the US has always been accepting of refugees from countries that we have been at war with. Most Americans are very protective of our"brothers and sisters" across the pond! I'd vouch for the two of you guys including your families!💗
What are you talking about, we turned away jews during WW2, we constantly screw over locals that have helped us like most recently in Afghanistan. We do allow in more people per year than anyone in the world. Unless you means years after which is kinda a moot point...
The Japanese Americans in WW2 would probably question your definition of "accepting". Life wasn't exactly great in the internment camps the US setup.
@@krayzy932 I thought about mentioning that as well but the op said refugees not our own people.
Yea, If your a war criminal our government hires you, as long as you aren't a poor person....
Zach, the US internment camps were resorts compared to the death camps Japan had across Asia, in China, the Philippines, Indonesia etc.. were they starved, tortured and killed the various Asian people, Dutch, English French, Australian and Americans. Try looking online, Asia was filled with thousands of those death camps. There are photos online of people including children who were little more than skeletons. Google to read about “comfort women” Asian women forced into sex slavery by the Japanese. I disagree with internment camps but Roosevelt also interred German and Italian immigrants and stated that there had been Japanese, German and Italian immigrants whose loyalty lay not with the country that gave them a home but with their former countries. They were well fed, housed in safe and good conditions and received health care, not one of them was thin.
When you patted his arm talking about him going to war I simply lost it.
Idk y I love British reaction videos. Love u guys from the states!
I’ve seen videos of other countries that were in Iraq, Syria, and Afghanistan that were all 100% excited to see the US TROOPS! They knew that just by them being there, also the ground/air support that follows them made everyone feel better knowing they had the us support
This is true! We're not bad people at all. I don't know how much food, drinks or even candy for the kids, that I've giving up to people in Iraq. Most of the people loved us, besides the ones that try to kill us.

Nope, just informed. 🤣
Understand, the USA has this capability now and has had it for several years, but has made no moves to dictate to the rest of the world. Instead, the USA has had an attitude of "Can't we all just get along and live and let live?" The USA also sends help or requests permission to send help to countries with natural disasters, even if those countries have animosity to the USA. The USA wants to live in peace, si vis pacem para bellum.
Well said! 👏
I've been saying that for years now. If the US was so mean, what's stopping them from blowing everybody up who hates America and putting the proverbial boot on everyone else? Do you think if Russia, China, Iran, North Korea, etc. had the tech the US has, that they wouldn't be planning on taking over the world? You'd be nuts if you said no. They would in a heartbeat and then see how you like the world if one of those country's were in charge. They are MALEVOLENT nations, whereas the US is a BENEVOLENT country. Always has been. 🇺🇸
Bruh that some bull shi
Unfortunately the trolls & anti-US propaganda has really turned people into believing otherwise. There's so much Russian & China Anit-west propaganda,not even sure why the US allows these totalitarian countries to operate major news outlets in the US.
A country that has been at war in all but 17 years of its existence is not a country that wants to live in peace.
@@JB-yb4wn We got dragged into all those wars! Europe can't live in peace unless the US provides that peace to protect it from other war mongering nations. We fought the Revolution to gain our independence, not for any other reason. The Civil War was a tragedy, but it was a war with ourselves. It also paved the way for racial justice, which lots of people don't recognize. The Korean War was to try to stop the spread of communism and South Korea was born of that. The Vietnam War was for the same reason and was born of a TRUE Democrat JFK. The Gulf War was to end tyranny and give the people a chance for a better life. Desert Storm was for the same reason. Some nations peoples are so used to living with the boot to the throat, that they don't know any other way and think the US is the bad guy. SD&SU
Having been in war as a US soldier I can tell you most of that on the video is true. But I can also tell you that it should be a great relief for everyone in the world to know that there is only a handful of countries in the world that having that much power would wield it responsibly and not want to take over other countries and conquer other countries, and the US is one of those. if certain other countries had this much power we would be doomed. Also, having that much power does not guarantee a win, look at Afghanistan I believe we got our asses handed to us because Society at the time and our leadership would not allow us to bring full power to bear.
Total underestimation of Europe
Several points I want to bring up about the US population.
First, we have a good population of vets. So when invading homeland USA, you will be fighting Ex-military.
Next to Ex-military who's your best beat for a soldier? Countries have known this answer since WW2 or before. The answer is hunters. They're use to walking around the woods stalking, tracking and shooting their prey. Hunting in the US is a multi billion dollar business. They have the camo clothes and gear for going out in the woods. They have the skills. Most hunters have several guns for different types of hunting. High powered bolt action rifles with scopes. Semi auto rifles etc. They are use to sitting and waiting. Now throw in the mix that they are fighting for their homes and lives. A group of hunters in an area they hunt would wreck havoc on any invading army. There high powered deer rifles will become sniper rifles. There semi auto rifles will be used to engage in infantry and they have home field advantage.
The some citizens of the US own and train with their firearms. It's not like a store clerk walks into a gun store and picks up a pocket gun or you are handing out guns to citizens that have never fired one (which could happen in the US). Those citizens, that own guns, are going to be a nightmare for any invading army.
either they are veterans or civilians it's never ex military in anything
@@katmccoy3426 : a person of long experience usually in some occupation or skill (such as politics or the arts).
That is another definition of veteran per Webster dictionary. I wanted to make sure that everyone knew that I was referring to someone with military experience but not currently in the military.
and many own enough to arm everyone in their house with 2 and supply my neighbors on both sides with 1 each as well lol 😆
@@Dgafsranger yet no other country has a constitution or personal guns
@@katmccoy3426 Other countries have private gun ownership but it's a privilege and not a right.
One fact this doesn't take into account. The US has the largest oil reserve on the planet estimated to be somewhere between 3-9 TRILLION barrels worth of oil. The original estimates were 3 trillion, but the latest numbers suggest it is closer to 9 trillion. As for how much of that is recoverable, about 20%-30% using modern technology. So anywhere from 900 billion to 3 trillion barrels of recoverable oil.
Edit: This is an oil reserve that nobody has tried to access yet because of how deep it is and how difficult it will be to extract that oil. Of course, the real problem here is that they completely ignored South Ameria as they don't really have any military capabilities, but what they do have is OIL and if the world elected to exploit that and then use their good submarines to scout a safe path from Brazil to Europe, small amount of oil from South America could get through the US blockade.
Oh, and OPEC stands for the "Organization of Petroleum Exporting Countries"
and we could easily just buck up and invest in wind, nuclear and solar energy. become entirely oil-independent within our own borders for energy. Then just keep the electric car ball rolling and leave everbody in the dust as far as dependence on other nations. leveraging us even further on the world stage. imagine if we got to sell our oil almost entirely. imagine if our solar and wind fields were in the central US and nearly impenetrable to foreign attack.. Kansas alone could house enough wind turbines to power half of America. Wind alley could produce enough electricity to keep every North American nation powered 24/7, 365. with some to spare.... the wind doesnt fully go away across a 1500 mile stretch of land. and its not ever going away.
So why are we getting oil imported?
To prep for what's to come
@@philiphapeshis1226 to prep for what's to come
Estimates say that the US has the largest untapped oil reserve in the world under the Rockies. Enough to provide oil to the US for the next 2000 years. The problem lies in getting it out of the ground. It would have to be done from Montana or somewhere up there, I can't remember where exactly.

I can only speak to army training, but if you really give yourself to the process, they really do break you and instill you with what’s been coined as the “indomitable American spirit.” Most commissioned officers have such a natural charisma about them, it’s hard to really describe and I cannot speak to what they go through at OCS but the most distinguished ones come from West Point.
Have to credit Sherman, and Grant, since the civil war was the first modern war.
@@davidcosta2244 not really. All it was military waging total war on a civilian population. First war balloons were sparingly used, sure, but it was just northern barbarity.
America loses to Third world countries routinely, and hasn't actually been in a War since WW II (everything after that period has been "Military Actions Declared by Congress").
With the new "Woke" Nonsense, such as making "Shark Attacks" (recruits being yelled at by multiple Drill Sergeants) illegal, because it hurts recruits feelings, the US is producing low quality soldiers, and Generals like Milley.
In recent Military War Games v. Britain, they performed so poorly, at one point they wanted to restart the exercise and have a Do Over, and have become a Joke internationally.

The canal is pretty neat. There’s also another canal between South America and North America called the Panama Canal which cuts traffic from having to go around South America.
You guys are so funny, I love these. Lets get more videos where neither of you have seen it though, he's cheating! :D
If it's any consolation and makes you feel better we (The USA) do consider you to be our friends.
Remember though. We appear to be a nation full of so many different views and political beliefs that we could not possibly agree on anything. That is not really the case. After the 9/11 attacks everyone and I mean EVERYONE was pissed. People who had never considered military careers we signing up just to get a chance to hit back. I knew guys that quit their jobs to travel to NY City to volunteer in the cleanup. 24*7 there was a feeling of Fury in the air. Most people know how proud Americans are of their country. That is what makes us a special kind of dangerous when crossed.
Those years right after were certainly something. There was a tangible drive and unity that fucking EVERYONE felt. That would play a huge factor in this scenario, whether or not the American people felt it justified and unavoidable.
Cause I'd bet everything that if it sparked the same vibe that 9/11 did, we would go all WW mode again and turn as much work force as possible to supporting the effort. In a time where women didn't work (ww2, not 9/11) they dropped everything and worked overtime in factories happily and went home to tend community gardens to feed themselves and their area. For 9/11 so, so many people volunteered and those who didn't sent many care packages specifically to loved ones who did join and another package to be distributed to the general force.
The time after 9/11 really was an interesting time to say the least. You could meet a perfect stranger and still feel bonded as Americans and help them out. Patriotism, compassion, and yes a thirst for revenge was our unifying drive. I miss the pride and compassion of those times, not the tragedy that led to it all though, that kind of trauma shook everyone to the core, which I assume would be similar in the scenario here.
The American people have always had a heart of gold and pride, no matter what. You best believe our military would go from 1.3 million active duty, to possibly tens of millions.
now now, this is considered homeland terrorist views in buyin's 2022. The flag you don't want lol the red one.
3 days ago I was given a recommendation to watch this channel and I decided to check it out and now I am hooked. You two are very genuine in your reactions to the videos you have chosen to react to. I have smashed that subscribe button. I look forward to seeing more of you guys in the future. Keep it real.
The thing I think about is all of the weapons that civilians have and the different landscapes , snowy tundras, forest’s, deserts, swamp land, snow capped mountains, valleys and rolling hills would make it tough to invade
3:43 I had an almost identical moment a few years ago. I vividly remember learning as a kid (less than 20 years ago) Jupiter had 34-ish moons, but then the JWST came along just a few years ago and suddenly the moon count is upwards of 95 lmao.
In my immediate family over the course of 25 years we have had: 5 marines; 4 naval personnel; 1 Army Ranger. All of the navy members served on an aircraft carrier. Theres a lot of power out there on the high seas.
What's even more amazing is that a majority of us Americans can say we are related to or know multiple who have or are currently serving, and that we are a 100% all volunteer military ❤
Got 2 uncles that was on carriers. One was on Independence and his brother on Kitty Hawk. And oddly enough... both of them fueled the planes lol.
Just wanted to say thank you for your family service and sacrifice.
I could also go back 5 generations. Only 2 were US Military. The other 3 were Italian Army and / or the Finnish Army. Suffice to say from what Grandad says, You haven't seen fear until you confront Finns in the winter on our mountains. Can you see why the USA would rather not have a world war? Some of us would rebel. I for one would never condone attacking what grandad calls "the old country". We all still have a piece of our heart over there.
This is a question I never want to know. It would basically be the end of everyone.
You said cousins and it reminded me of the play Lincoln went to when he got shot was Our American Cousin.
You're safe with us. We love our brothers and sisters from across the pond. Our countries are united as one. We stand proud with you. We shall be together forever
The Organization of the Petroleum Exporting Countries (OPEC) was founded in Baghdad, Iraq, with the signing of an agreement in September 1960 by five countries namely Islamic Republic of Iran, Iraq, Kuwait, Saudi Arabia and Venezuela. ... This means that, currently, the Organization has a total of 13 Member Countries.
I call them the Oil Producing economy countries.
As a US Navy vet I love how info graphics always forgets that the US tends to go for the jugular in wars. We would go for the oil but we would also use our vast inventory of long range conventional missles to wipe out as many military targets as posible first and lets not forget history proves that when faced with insurmountable odds like japan in ww2 we can do things like fire bombing campaigns which killed more than the 2 nukes we dropped , and besides even hitler had allies at first in russia and italy
Yeah you got defeated by the Taliban!
Must be why we did none of that since when? Look at iraq or afghanistan...they apparently love long corruption wars now. Besides this soft population we have now couldn't even handle the losses we had in korea...look how they react to any american casualties in the past 20 years. It'd be like vietnam ...they proud they know someone fighting until they come back then it's screw you type of thing.
Stopping a war to save money does not mean we were defeated. All these wars people claim the US lost lasted as long as they did due to wanting little civilian casualties or other similar reasons. The US could have just sent nothing but bombs and missiles to end the war if limiting casualties wasn’t important. And against something like the US vs The World, I doubt much cate would be given to civilians so you can expect them to go all out for once.
Care*
@@sarge3109 👏👏👏👏👏👏 yes yesss u just hit the nail spot on people who aren’t war officials could never understand the possibilities of conflict in a country that have no hope to fend for themselves right when the us packed their bags Afghanistan crumbled
America does consider you folks as brothers and sisters. Chances ate most of us either have family or personal friends as well. As for you two? I just you both and you have wonderful personalities.
Super fascinating stuff for sure, even just understanding of how geography and oil play such a big role in this simulated conflict. It's also oddly reassuring considering the current war going on in Ukraine. Still, the main takeaway for me is how pointless it would be to waste all these resources and lives while crippling the world economy. So in the end, nobody really wins, which is exactly what we've always known about wars
Think about this the American dollar is accepted in every country if it's devalued they would have a problem buying from each other because the money would be worthless, you can go to any country and spend a dollar but you have to convert their money to spend in America or use a credit card.
I adore you guys. This channel is one of my happy places. You two are so genuine. Love it. 👍
Bless you, we love having you here! 🤍
If you know we have it, we are 10 years past it.. I just recently found out that Boeing is testing a plasm force field for ship protection... force fields... Star Trek stuff
Love these "paper war" videos. Yes, on paper we can take on everyone and win. The casualties for us would be very high at the start but the longer it goes on the easier it gets for us. New data - Whoever did the VS video apparently never heard of "Star Wars". We now have so many of the new generation laser space weapons that we have had to open a new military branch to deal with it. Those particular weapons are now small enough to be placed on ships also and they've tested very well meaning that China won't be overwhelming our defense systems quite so easily. We also have "invisible tanks" now (2 types) new and improved submarines and stuff I can't even tell you because I don't think I would like military prisons. One of my favorite videos is when Trump took office and was briefed by the joint chiefs about American Military Capabilities. (I liked Trump, if you don't I don't care.) He came out of that meeting almost babbling like an idiot because the knowledge that had just been handed to him put him into a state of shock. I'm very much enjoying your videos and would love to see your reaction to the youtube video Pitching Decks, a video about our pilots training to land on carriers in seas that simulate the North Sea. ( So, now we if we absolutely had to we could no fly Russia)
BTW OPEC Organization of Oil Exporting Countries.
Anyone else get tears in their eyes when hearing how amazing our military might is?
i love our military, wish i had knowledge of our military's true ability's that isent publicly known just out of curiosity
🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
No... Wish I lived in a peaceful world. Where they dont just keep making more bigger weapons.
What a utopia that would be. But now back to reality
Sure does. God bless the USA. God bless our veterans. God bless the good of the world. Stay strong. Stay patriotic fam.
This also didn’t even consider stuff like the Civil Reserve Air Fleet. DoD airlift capability using some 450 aircraft ready within 72 hours from over 20 airlines like FedEx and UPS. FedEx alone has over 400 long range cargo aircraft capable of moving troops, munitions, and even vehicles. We can basically send anything, anywhere in the world in less than 24 hours. It’s like a having a 4th U.S. air force.
Oh yeah and those planes will be flying on what? Hopes, wishes and dreams? Assume that your refineries will be gone on the first day.
Love and blessings to you from Texas. To all my brothers and sisters "accross the pond." We love the U.K. in America. I know I do.❤🙏☺👍
We learned well the lesson Japan taught us at Pearl Harbor on 12/7/41.
Trying to remember if there has ever been a dominant country before that had so few imperialistic goals. The USA could take over any area it chose, but has virtually no interest.
A good example of “just because you can, doesn’t mean that you should”
Because America figured out it's better to be the mafia than an empire. The world is our turf and keeping stuff stable is better for business.
That's not exactly true. The US is just using a newer version of imperialism. You don't need to conquer and control every country if you can help setup governments that ally with your own country. The US also controls many other nations by being intertwined with their economics.
The US, which I am proudly a citizen of (just to clarify), still has imperialistic goals. They have just gone about it in a completely different way.
Yes a lesson China hasn't learned and continues to grab for power. The world should actually be thanking India for keeping China busy at their borders. That's also why it's so troubling to see how the world is reacting to the whole Taiwan isn't a country Chinese propaganda. The fact that everyone seems to bow down to China including the USA with its current administration makes this whole video nullified.
@Rage Kage What kind of proof would you like? Would you like a list of the countries governments we have interfered with and installed political leaders that were sympathetic to the US? Would you like a list of the countries whose entire economies would collapse without the US's involvement? Or would you like a list of countries with US military bases in them? Imperialism doesn't have to have a negative connotation to it (though there are many instances in US history that are negative).
When you mention its not all about "all guns blazing" and 1 little strategic move can turn a war... it reminded me of a quote..
“To win one hundred victories in one hundred battles is not the acme of skill. To subdue the enemy without fighting is the acme of skill.” ― Sun Tzu, The Art of War
watching the infographic show can teach you a lot i love them and give them the credit they are owed plz😊
Not to mention our military has been fighting in these never ending wars for the last 40 or so years.Experience counts. Love or hate the united States you better at least us alone unless you have death
wish
The lack of meaningful transport has always been the Achilles heel of any Eurasian country wanting to invade the United States...even France strained its marine resources to support its Imperial adventure in Mexico in the 1860s, and this was only made possible by Britain's (and the Royal Navy's) forbearance, and the United States being pre-occupied with its Civil War.
If Russia, China or India shared a land border with the contiguous United States, that would be a major problem for Americans, but its long been recognized that, if you can't march there, a country's army can't directly threaten the United States.
And the fact almost all of us have guns and more guns. 🤣
You should to the search for D.B. Cooper by Lemmino. Fascinating mystery and broken down and explained amazingly in the video. It's very compelling. It's a longer video (~20 min) but my guarantee that it's worth it, it's the type of thing that I rly think both of you would find entertaining. Cheers!
Yeah
I agree, I just watched that video, it was really good! 🙂❤
He is way in to this and she is like ya hmm when is this over im dead inside.
Oil is pretty common. Getting it out, transporting, and refining is the hard part.
US Army Vet here… really enjoy your content!! Keep it up!! HOOOOAH
*I just wanted to say that I’m a peace loving American.*
*Seriously and sincerely…* 🙏🏻
Peace is obtained through war.
@@lunchbox90 I’m not joking when I say that’s made me rethink everything about life
how hard will you fight to keep your peace when others only want to take it away from you?
There is the Zues defense systems. Also called the heavenly thunder. Imagine a death beam shooting out of orbit and destorying citys.
I wonder if all the military vehicles we’ve sold to allies have a hidden kill switch just in case of a situation like this.
In Colorado Springs (USA) the airforce bases are now being bolstered by Space Force bases... satellite capabilities were touched on in this video but to have an entire devoted branch likely means those abilities run much deeper.
Yeah sure! 🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣
@@JB-yb4wn Why is that funny? Are you so ignorant? Most military information is kept secret to have the upper hand against enemies. Put aside even space force which likely is more capable than most think. You still have many secret weapons and strategies which the military is hiding. This isn't conspiracy theories or anything, just the basic art of war.
Just letting you know there are actual drills the US does in order to figure out the breaking point of the military by being spread out, and the limit is three combat command regions (6 all together). So it'd actually turn out bad for the US but the US would make sure to keep the fight on the offensive as much as possible away from the states.
Until they get slaughtered by the overwhelming numbers in both people and production.
The timelines they used within this were grossly over estimated. And only utilized Naval Forces for the most part. There are 4 other branches of US military that weren't even discussed. They also didn't include drone capabilities when talking about alternative oil production outside of the Middle East.
@@ericropp6364
The same drone activity that would also wreck the US refineries and pipelines.
@@JB-yb4wn Have you seen their drone capabilities? I've seen better at Walmart.
@@ericropp6364
You do know, that right now that there are Turkish drones being deployed in the Ukraine, which everyone says are pretty good. Elbit systems, Israel Aerospace Industries, Thales Group, BAE Systems (who make a lot of weapons for the US military), and of course SAAB. These guys are not slouches. I would also imagine that companies like DJI could easily convert their drones into military drones. FIMI has swarming drones that they use instead of fireworks which again could be used for military purposes. Don't underestimate your opponents, they are just as capable of destroying targets as you guys are.
We as Americans (the people) don't really consider most enemies. We prefer being friends.
Unless I missed it in this video, they forgot the United States has the largest civilian army. Americans personally own hundreds of millions of guns . Which is why our home land has never been successful invaded . Other countries aren’t afraid of our military when it comes to invasion they are scared of the gun owning citizens.
Add in each state has its own military too in the form of the National Guard - both Army and Air Force.
The Suez Canal and the Panama Canal are very important to global shipping.
Facts you stop these two places the world stops
As a retired Navy carrier pilot, I flew against Soviet aircraft and in wars games. The military doctrine is to hit hard at the enemies bases, both land and sea ports. I know we have always been taught to fight a defense battle, but our plan B is lethal beyond words. We have so many weapons in secret, in places like area 51 and elsewhere, the public and our enemies would be shocked. The day a war like this would happen is so small it's safe to say it would not happen at all. Everyone in the world understands the United States is a sleeping giant best left alone. Look what happened to Japan in WWII. Oh and as far as you gaining entry into the USA once the shooting starts, not very. The country would lock down the entry to prevent spies. Cheers
Biden would let them in if they promise to vote Dem.
Do you honestly think Mr. Trump would not let in anyone who promised to support HIM? It can work both ways, fellow.
Your so right!
@@starmnsixty1209 It goes beyond Trump or Biden, that kind of stuff extends to our three majour government branches, too. Nobody would get in or out in the event of a global war.
The U.S has been the most formidable force in the world since we abolished the Articles of Confederation and got our shit together with the Constitution. Even before then, we kicked Britain's ass. At their prime. And we were the first in the world to gain fighting independence from Great Britain. The U.S has always been a powerhouse, with or without foreign support.
I served during desert storm as an engineer. Back then it took 3 days to put all the equipment at one base onto rail to transport it to the port. There was a lack of ships then and it caused us to use Mothballed ships that were designed for the Great Lakes not open ocean. The super cargo car movers can cross the Atlantic in a few days, reaching Saudi in 19. The ship I was on took 30 days because we lost an engine as we entered the Med and it took a long time to limp to Port Said where the part we needed was waiting. Point of all this is logistics. The power in the military is it’s ability to supply the force. During desert storm we ran out of MRE’s before we even got into action. Keep in mind I was an engineer and on a list of prioritization I would be low if not the lowest. So while we were eating beef stroganoff for a month, I don’t know if our infantry ever knew of the shortage. So, while this video makes it seem like we are all powerful, we do rely greatly on the economic power of Great Britain and eww France. Jk. Israel is also a valuable ally. Anyway, don’t sell the relationships we have short.
I'm glad u didn't have to clear a path to save their asses. Fellow combat engineer.
We did have to clear a path in Somalia. Grimy fckers mined the roads and ambushed UN food trucks.
You hear that everybody! She said it! It is not the size that counts, but how you use it.
As Teddy Roosevelt (my favorite US President) said, "Speak softly and carry a big stick." We rarely want to use that big stick, but we have it if we must. We've not always used our military in the most ideal way, but we try to use it judiciously. BTW, you guys should check out a video about President Theodore (Teddy) Roosevelt (perhaps from the Biographics channel, for example). Fascinating guy who had quite an amazing life.
TR might be the most interesting, badass, and well-rounded man in history.
@@capo328 they don’t make people like him anymore. A fair and honest man.

TR is only 2nd after Andrew Jackson IMHO
@@eipi5173
The same Andrew Jackson who ignored a Supreme Court ruling to leave the Choctaws and Cherokee nations on their own land and send them on the Trail of Tears? Is it that Andrew Jackson we are talking about?
He also didn't mention that we have an absolutely ridiculous amount of intercontinental ballistic missiles that are launched from underground silos and can strike anywhere on the planet. We can't use nukes in the scenario, but ballistic missiles aren't nuclear and they are still absolutely devastating. More than likely it'd be over before any real battle to place. Which is why NO ONE ever wants another major war in the world. Weapons are far too devastating now, too many innocent lives would inevitably be lost. No sense in it at all.
And of course the Russians don't? The Chinese? And maybe 40 other nations?
@@JB-yb4wn It'd be interesting to see (conceptually, not in reality) whos capabilities and secretive research ends up coming out on top.
We actually have space missiles as well that can be launched from satellites.
@@Alcsaar0
Well that really won't come into play now, will it? You think you have years when the whole planet is going for your throat?
Think about this scenario, what did the US do to make countries that have hated eachother's guts for centuries, drop their differences and concentrate their efforts on destroying the US?
Think of the resolve and determination, not to mention pure hate that those countries will have in seeing this scenario through.
@@benfontenot9896
No you fucking don't.
As a former combat soldier retired I went on to work as an electronic contractor. I can tell you that there’s a number of things that were not mentioned number one US has the largest active submarine drone net work on the planet don’t have the numbers but it’s sizable and it grows exponentially arrear great video.
We also took out a satellite with a jet, just to see if we could.
Yes, we do the hard stuff for funsies sometimes.
Yes,the USA & Britain are longtime friends/allies and we have no desire to dominate any other country. Honestly,we have enough problems here. I think our military objectives were shaped by WW II. My father,who served in the Pacific in the Navy always said we had to conquer the Japanese island by island at a great cost of life.
War doesn’t always come down to the decisions of a handful of old generals, but down to the actions and decisions of many brave man as young as 18
I will appoint my self to speak for America and say, we love you guys, no worries...😅
Plus if the suez canal was taking out tankers on open sea would be easier to pick off
I speak to you as the direct descendant of King George III. He was the last Crowned Sovereign to rule in this country, and it is therefore with a particular personal interest that I view those events which took place 200 years ago.
It seems to me that Independence Day, the Fourth of July, should be celebrated as much in Britain as in America. Not in rejoicing at the separation of the American Colonies from the British Crown but in sincere gratitude to the Founding Fathers of this great Republic for having taught Britain a very valuable lesson.
This morning I saw the famous Liberty Bell. It came here over 200 years ago when Philadelphia, after London, was the largest English speaking city in the world. It was cast to commemorate the Pennsylvania Charter of Privileges, but is better known for its association with the Declaration of Independence.
Today, to mark the 200th anniversary of that declaration, it gives me the greatest pleasure, on behalf of the British people, to present a new bell to the people of the United States of America. It comes from the same foundry as the Liberty Bell, but written on the side of the Bicentennial Bell are the words “Let Freedom Ring”.
It is a message in which both our people can join and which I hope will be heard around the world for centuries to come. _ Queen Elizabeth II Philadelphia P.A.on July 6, 1976.

No other nation has ever had the capabilities of the U.S. and used it less. Can you imagine if Russia or China had these capabilities instead of us? What would they do with it? We just want trade, ,man, business! If we had our way there would be a McDonalds and Starbucks in every city, town, and village on the planet..lol.

"Use it less" what the fuck are you talking about? The U.S.. has been involved in some military action since the Korean War. The U.S. is constantly sticking it's nose in other's business all around the globe.
