Pearl Harbor

 


83 years ago today the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor and the US Pacific Fleet resting at anchor. Some 2,400 men were killed and the Fleet heavily damaged; of 8 battleships present during the attack, 4 were sunk, to say nothing of other ships. The US went on to declare war against Japan and the Axis, whose powers would pay a heavy price.




Bearing in mind the rhyming nature of history, let's pray we don't see a rerun of December 7, 1941. And if we do, would today's America have the will and manufacturing ability to take the war to the enemy? We did then, what about now. A serious if loaded question. You'll recall Kamala Harris equating the J6 protest with Pearl Harbor and Washington, apparently, agreeing.

Remember Pearl Harbor and those who gave their lives.

Never Forget

 



Via 45:

On this National Pearl Harbor Remembrance Day, we recall the phrase “Remember Pearl Harbor,” which stirred the fighting spirit within the hearts of the more than 16 million Americans who courageously served in World War II. Over 400,000 gave their lives in the global conflict that began, for our Nation, on that fateful Sunday morning. Today, we memorialize all those lost on December 7, 1941, declare once again that our Nation will never forget these valiant heroes, and resolve as firmly as ever that their memory and spirit will survive for as long as our Nation endures.

Amen to that,

LSP

Don't Forget Pearl Harbor



Don't forget, whatever White House press secretaries may or may not say and, by the way, Japan's never apologized for their murderous surprise attack.

If you're in the mood to play Thank Christ for the Bomb,well, go right ahead.
