  1. the British 17 pounder looked and performed like th 88 . https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-0ff591866d72027f3c0f9df9c958453d But the 88 was a defence weapon and the allies were one the offensive most of the time.

  3.  @peachtrees27  With ICBMs the US can destroy China 3 times over in a afternoon. Give Iceland enough ICBM silos and China would not go near them . WW2 thinking is gone and never coming back. Nobody wins the next big war and it will be a 6 hours long.

  9. Only 800 people died of SARs on a planet of 6.8 billion people back in 2003. More people died of jaywalking. 1.5 million died of TB last year and it does not even make the news. https://www.who.int/news-room/fact-sheets/detail/tuberculosis

  10. Scatter bombing a city full of civilians when in 1944 the Russians were on a unstoppable march to Berlin is not heroic to me. They Bombed Dresden for last just because it was the only untouch city left 2 months before the war ended. It war untouched because it had no Military targets.

  12. Even if he succeeded the next place is Mongolia and After that China. Then he would sail to Japan and after that sail to South America attack the Incas. Alex was a psychopath.

  14. The British 17 pounder looked and performed like the 88 . But the 88 was a awesome defensive weapon and the allies were always on the offensive during the war mostly. https://qph.fs.quoracdn.net/main-qimg-0ff591866d72027f3c0f9df9c958453d Like the Germans the British put their 17 pounder in a tank and made a tank destroyer . (Sherman Fireflies).

  25. Majors nations with nukes follow the M.A.D rule to prevent a nuclear war. It's the lone 3rd world dictators with nukes on a suicide trip that will cause the next big war.

  29. True. During the BOB the British were building more planes than the Germans. Every parachuted German pilot was a POW, every parachuted RAF was back in the air that afternoon. How could the German air force win the numbers game?

  30.  @ribbitgoesthedoglastnamehe4681  When we bombed the Germans with much larger heavy 4 engine bomber formations , the Germans would have factories back up and running in no time. How would a smaller group of medium 2 engine HE-111s shut down Britain's production?

  33. How is it heroic? Britain declared war on Germany first. That's like saying the heroic Japan for fighting the USA after they bombed Pearl Harbour or the Heroic Germans fighting the Russians after they invaded Russia.

  34.  @m9078jk3  Towards the middle the US were just scatter bombing with incendiary bombs with the intent to just burn the cities like the RAF. They destroyed Dresden in just two raids , nobody is that bad of a aim.

  35. 50 million died on a planet of only 1.8 billion in 1918. Today 100,000 (Mostly elderly) died on a planet of 7.8 billion. You really can not compare the two.

  36.  @saintchuck9857  500 million did not died of the flu in 1918. The population of the planet was only 1.8 billion. That's a 30% death rate. Elderly is being a fact of what it is. unlike the the 1918 which equally dedicated the young and healthy.

  37. When your army use Horses instead of the GMC CCKW ​2 1⁄2-ton 6x6 you know who is going to win in the long run.   Don't pull a cannon with Secretariat .

  38. I never seen a wood decking screw that was not a robinson and I live on the border in Canada and have many American friends. Next time when out on their decks next summer I will have to take a look. A philips deck plank screw would just seem odd.

  39. Bayer is a German Company Why would we care about Bayer Aspirin Patent and control rights in 1917 during a War with Germany? Crazy thinking back then.

  47. A ship can't hide in the vast Ocean from others. But if the Emden ,broke down in the same Ocean it would be adrift for a mouth running out of food and water as the crew prayed for any rescue ship to spot them. Life is odd.

  50. Even with Fuel Germany produced only 70,000 Opel Blitz WWII German trucks. Compared ti the US who built 550,000 GMC CCKW ​2 1⁄2-ton 6x6. For material transport 70,000 is not nearly enough even if they had all the fuel they wanted .
