America’s Military Crisis — We Will LOSE Our Next War
The United States Army is the smallest it has been since 1940, the year before the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor and sunk the majority of the American fleet in an act of perfidy that launched the US and the world into a global war that killed millions and changed the course of civilization.
[Frame of reference: US 1940 population 132,000,000; currently 340,000,000.]
The American fleet was considered the most potent American military arm and the only one that could project force over the horizon into the Pacific, so the Japs plotted to take it out and did.
Weakness attracts aggression.
