>could only have come from Marshall, who was already pushing a United Nations concept.
JHC. I grew up in a time when the Marshall Plan was hailed as the greatest strategic move in history and Marshall was its sainted author, Eisenhower was a hero and WWII was an heroic victory over tyranny.
Now I'm being forced to question every element of history back to at least the Spanish American war. Were all of these wars for profit? Were they artificially created by the cabal and their willing accomplices in politics, media, industry, and finance?
I'm pretty strong in WWII history and have always wondered about a few things starting with what appears to be foreknowledge of Pearl Harbor which was forced upon the Japanese by our unsustainable embargo's.
Then letting the European war drag the entire continent in for years before the U.S. was called in to mop it up in jig time, just like WWI.
Even then, why did we sacrifice so many inferior B-17's without escorting fighters? Why did we field a vastly inferior Sherman tank in huge numbers only to have them decimated in wholesale lots. Why weren't our fighters up to the task until nearly the end of the war? To allow more bombers to be destroyed?
Human life means nothing to them is now so readily apparent it's hard to rationalize that we were conditioned to consider all that carnage heroic. Shit fire, we've been taken for a hellluva ride.
