The Japanese fleet is disintegrating, and the Imperial Navy conducts its last major operation in the Philippines Islands. It ends with debacle: The risen battleships of Pearl Harbor avenge the attack in Surigao Strait, the Center Force is defeated in Sibuyan Sea, the jeep carriers and destroyers fend off a stronger Japanese force near Samar and the remaining Japanese aircraft carriers are sunk. This Victory at Sea segment marked the near inevitability that the Japanese would accept defeat and surrender to the Allies.

You can't wage a war of any kind decently without propaganda, no matter who you are.

And you can't run effectve propaganda without respectable atmospherics.

The Germans liked Wagner. That worked for them.

Pike wrote of three world wars.

Instead of WWIII perhaps it will known as the LAST world war???

I think the Pike letter is fake for number of concrete reasons, but I won't quibble with the content generally.

I think the Pike letter is fake for number of concrete reasons,

Many learned people also considered Pikes letter to be a fraud, especially since his WWIII prediction centered on the nation of Israel, which did not exist until 1947.

In 1947 the Allies "created Israel" angering the Muslim world. Since that time, Israel has been a powder keg waiting to explode. In 1956 Israel invaded Egypt, dragging France and Britain with them, Russia threatened to intervene. Eisenhower kept his cool, told Russia to stay out, told Jews and France and Brits to go home.

I thot I was going to go for another foreign tour.

At that time Pikes fake letter sure seemed authentic.

Fascism was created by one of the foremost Communists in the world, namely Mussolini.

What time period was Pike letter first said to be a hoax? Was it afore Israel was created?
