Even past wars and injustices come to mind, to resonate the sword and saber rattling. History is full of the examples. .. to include mental derangement from drug use.  Most people say and validate our need for a military due to the past world wars. Those same people will not acknowledge that their fathers had a hand in making those wars come to fruition. Britian and the US were Opium dealers....even using opium as a form of currency in the trade for goods. The US grew it's supply in Turkey, and Britian grew it in India.

This is definitely a different view of history from what I was taught. Uncovered fact or fiction? What do you think?

CoH please.

    Total fiction onefan51..Yes, both the British and Americans were involved in the opium trade, but to run with that to dropping the Atomic bomb on Japan is more then far fetched. As are many of the other conclusions. Interesting reading though.

    What a bunch of outright propagandized crap! Goebbels, the originator of propaganda would be proud and I'll bet Hitler is spinning like a top. Anybody who see this for anything but an attack against the US & GB had better check their meds.
