Thank you for not cutting this off like so many do. This particular video didn't have the outro or bloopers some of them do, but it only takes an extra few seconds to find out.
The reason you guys don't think of Iraq as having had such an impressive military s because of Desert Storm. They weren't just beaten - they were destroyed. I can remember seeing news footage of it at 7 years old.
Remember they were just a couple of years off a war with Iran than hike they started they essentially fought to a draw. The US by comparison had not been in a real war since vietnam. The Grenada and Panama invasions really where too limited to count
Iraq's military wasn't impressive. It may have been numerically large, by some very particular measurement, but the metric in question was not a good proxy for actual military power. Like, maybe they were counting total number of military personnel (which hasn't been the biggest important indicator of military strength since the invention of the chariot), or something along those lines. At the time, four of the top five most militarily powerful countries were in NATO, and the other one was Russia. Iraq would have been down the list, below regional-power countries like China and India and Israel and Turkey. Yes, they had a lot of missiles and a lot of tanks, but most of that was old ex-Soviet military surplus, and their people weren't even properly trained on how to use it; and their air force was trash. Iraq's military going into Desert Storm, looked highly reminiscent of Nasser's Egyptian military going into 1967. Not that that stopped their government from boasting. Weakness, in practice, never stops an Eastern power from boasting about how mighty they are. Again, just like Nasser.
I was a Military Policeman in Germany from 1982-85. My Community Commander was H. Norman Swartzkopf when he only a 1 star General. I worked "PSD" Personal Security Detail for him and knew him well. GREAT man.
I was there when this happened, yes I am old as dirt. When we got the bombs to load on the planes they were STILL warm from being casted. They were made and immediately shipped to the gulf. Two of them per one F-111G AND they had to drop both of them at the same time because the aircraft would crash if only one was on the wing due to the flight stability thrown off due to the massive weight of the bomb.
Not yet. Since their visit to the states, she’s been testing American recipes on this channel. Click on the “videos “ category on this channel and you’ll see 3 or 4 videos of her testing and Millie and James trying it out.
Mixed with bunker busters...the things the US has behind the scenes is unimaginable..from which the likes the world has never seen before. Let that truly sink in.
The MOAB is the Massive Ordinance Air Blast. It is intended to hit above a soft-to-medium surface, like a cave, with a massive blast of heat that consumes all the air. What doesn't get burned, suffocates. The MOP is the Massive Ordinance Penetrator. It is a "bunker buster bomb" meant to take out hard, deeper-rooted areas such as bunkers up to 200 under the surface of the earth.
Today Iraq ranks as the 45th largest military on the planet, they still have not recovered from Desert Storm, and likely will not anytime in the near or foreseeable future, what was not destroyed in Desert Storm, is still what they are using TODAY, with ZERO NEW more modern equipment, and nothing of what they have has been upgraded in any way since then, in 1990 and 1991, they did have cutting edge equipment for the time, but that equipment and weapons systems are drastically outdated today.
I was a Apache Crew Chief. 1st Armored DIV. Attached to the 2nd Armored Cavalry. Ahhh. Good times. 😐. Also, my Dad was a battery commander for 8” howitzers in the mid-late ‘60’s. They were nuclear weapon ready.
A GBU 57 penetrates to 200 ft, BUT a B-2 can carry 2, and as they are GPS guided, can be targeted at the same location thus doubling the penetration. 2 B-2's could cause seismic sensors in neighboring countries to record an earthquake.
I Was Going To Junior College(Okaloosa Walton) about 3 miles away, when they tested the bomb on a sled at Eglin Air Base. It Shook the Ground. The news reported it as a possible earth quake. Rick Charleston SC
I love watching you both but I really love watching your mom’s cooking. Also, maybe you can tell her to try some southern turnip greens with ham hocks that would be a really fun recipe for her to make with cornbread of course God bless you both.
I used to live near the Watervliet Arsenal a long time ago and went on a tour during an open house. It is like a series of huge machine shops. They make most, if not all, of the canons for the US military. They did at the time anyway.
Iraq learned the lesson of attacking someone you owe from the French. In 1307, French King Phillip the Fair (laughable name), owed the Poor Fellow Soldiers of Christ and the Temple Solomon, aka, the Knights Templar, a lot of money. Instead of paying, they branded the Templars heretics and arrested, tortured, and executed members of the order. Thankfully, the Templars had spies everywhere and they had warning. They started fleeing Knights Commanderies all over Europe and thousands of men and hundreds of ships disappeared into history. Saddam thought he could try the same thing against Kuwait, although without the blessing of a spineless Pope.
Hey sorry but y’all mentioned Halloween in the video so you got my curiosity up how do y’all do Halloween versus hell the US does Halloween? Keep up your good work love watching.
If you learn nothing else from this man, remember two lessons. If you ever find yourself in charge of a country, do what you can to not raise gas prices and, please, do not eff with America’s boats. Historically, those two don’t end well.
Why just the other day...... B-2 bombers flew from Whiteman AFB in Missouri to Yeman, while they did bomb the Houthi rebels, it was more of a message to IRAN. Just letting Iran know that the B-2 can carry not one but TWO 30,000 lbs GBU-57 MOP bombs that can destroy ANY underground nuclear facility anywhere in Iran. AND the Israeli IDF has taken out most of Iran's Air Defense capability already.
Congress did not authorize this act of war thereby making it illegal. And it should be noted that the UK has participated with the United States on several such bomming missions of Yemen.
@@TheRagratus Yemen has repeatedly made clear that the attacks on ships are in response to the ongoing US/UK backed Izzraeli g-cide and will end when the g-cide ends. As a signatory to the 'Convention Against G**cide' Yemen is mandated to make all efforts to intervene to stop it. (The United States and United Kingdom are also signatories to the convention.). The US and UK are illegally bommbing Yemen precisely because Yemen is trying to stop g**cide. I can see that you're just a Pentagon or N8TO bot who wants the slaughter and starvation of the women and children of Gaza to continue.
I actually worked part time after school at the Watervliet Arsenal in the computer/payroll office at the time and this was kept so hush hush that this was the 1st time I've heard of this..crazy!
"That's disgraceful" was the funniest thing I've ever seen on a TFE reaction video 😂. But yeah this video was made before the post credits scene was common with him.
Saddam Hussein surrendered because the A-10 aircraft destroyed all of their tanks. This plane is so horrible that when I saw it in performance while I was in the Air Force, I was SHOCKED, STUNNED, BLOWN AWAY! It is the most horrible secret the US has. This indestructible monster eats tanks for breakfast, and causes problems with our own military. The Air Force hates it because the Army wants it for support, and the Air Force doesn't want to support so they hold on to it to prevent the Army from having it. The Air Force wants this plane to go away, but its power is absolute! The Ukrainians asked for it instead of F -16s and the US Air Force REFUSED! These people in the Air Force need to be removed, this weapon is second only to the SR-71 even amoung Air Force personnel. They need to stop playing games, and deliver some real power to Ukraine! It would destroy a column of a thousand tanks. It is the only war footage still kept top secret from Desert Storm.
@@jamesmcclain5005 Saddam has satellites, fpv drones, stealth fighters, atomic weapons and most experienced army in the world like Russia?

As far as number of soldiers, America is 7th from my quick research, I knew we weren't top 3, but i did think North Korea would be above us, they comw in at 8th.

Iran - 1.2 million Vietnam and S. Korea were the surprising rankings for me.
Have you ever seen any of the daily press conferences from Desert Storm? They had a lot of aerial footage of them dropping bombs and firing missiles. On one, they dropped a bomb down a smoke stack. On another you saw a truck driving across a bridge that had a missile targeted. The truck got off the bridge just as the bridge blew. The general referred to him as "the luckiest man in Iraq that day." Then there was the Iraqi Information Minister who claimed they were winning on all fronts, and they were slaughtering the invaders. LOL
Before you quantitate what is considered the "largest" military you have to first qualify what contributes to the size of it. If you're talking about raw personnel on your rosters, I believe China, North Korea, and India have larger militaries than the USA by those numbers. But military strength has gone far beyond throwing bigger numbers at the problem until it submits. The US isn't the "largest" military in terms of numbers on quite a few things. It spends the most, but that doesn't determine size. Rather than just sheer numbers on paper, I think it's more or less what that military can do and how long it can do it (no innuendos in that at all.) Like Russia has a large military by the numbers. But it's proving that that same military, under the restrictions of technically "not being at war but in a special military operation," cannot over power Ukraine backed by NATO. The US has proven in the past (it doesn't speak much for the present because of how much warfare has changed) that it's able to wage war on two fronts if needed and contribute to the progression on both fronts in a substantial way. North Korea was constantly boasting that it will get a 1 million man army and now it has it, but they don't have anywhere near enough food to feed that many conscripted mandatory service members. Nor do they have the economy or logistics to give them proper training, so they just indoctrinate them to hate America and try to develop nuclear ICBMs to piss of the rest of the world. By the numbers, North Korea has a very large military. Their capacity to actually operate beyond their boarders is very small. So by the numbers, in 1990 Iraq may have had a numerically 4th largest military on the planet, but the capability of that military.....Well that kind of doesn't matter when just about every other military of varying sizes and capabilities decide they're going on the other team.
