The Path to Pearl Harbor Wrap-up with Extra History LIES
🕑 Added 2023-01-06 20:56:29 +0000 UTCWelcome Extra Historians to Lies, where we talk about the mistakes we made and the details we couldn't quite squeeze into our Path to Pearl Harbor Series. With questions like, what's the difference between an Admiral and a Commodore? How did the Japanese think they could fight the US, the USSR and hold down all of China at the same time? And what happened to Nomura after the attack?

Man I can’t believe you didn’t touch on the treatment of American POWs, the Japanese fire bomba bag of the United States west coast and history revisionism. I understand its the "path…but you made the Japanese as victims when they were committing war crimes on a daily basis.

I would LOVE to see an occupation of Japan series. I've always felt that it had a bigger cultural impact on both countries than most people realize. I'll be sure to keep an eye out for an opportunity to recommend it as a topic ;D

For your information, regarding your Animal Farm episode, sheep are not mindless ~ they have an IQ level similar to that of cows and slightly below that of pigs. To re ~ ask an earlier question: would the Battle of The Bulge be done as a one off, or would it have to be voted on by the Patrons?

Small nitpick at 16:55: Tsushima wasn't a preemptive strike - you're thinking of the attack on Port Arthur that started the war.
