Date: October 3rd, 2024 4:12 PM Author: walnut indecent spot No weapon has ever been "transformative" long enough to matter. The only thing that's ever mattered is men and morale. There's never been a war where technology overcame the factors that men and morale bring to the table.

But, they get spears, swords, catapults and slings. I'll take an army consisting of effeminate homosexuals armed with modern weaponry.

under this faultless logic a pistol is deadlier that napalm. and the human fist is the most deadly weapon of all! |

|
Date: October 4th, 2024 3:42 PM Author: walnut indecent spot No, it's actually more deadly. It burns hot as fuck, not like anything you keep in the house. Homes in tokyo were made of wood and this stuff burned so hot it boiled off the water in city canals.
LeMay originally wanted the Imperial Palace left alone, but whoops we bombed a big chunk of that too.
That one incident killed more people that Hiroshima and Nagasaki combined, and the deaths were more agonizing, and there was more total destruction, and Japan still did not surrender. Nukes killed fewer people and caused the emperor to capitulate. It's psychology. |
|
Date: October 4th, 2024 3:48 PM Author: pale boltzmann base did that "one incident" involve multiple bombs or one? why do you suppose we opted to drop the nukes on smaller japanese cities? and what would do you suppose would have happened to the imperial palace if we nuked tokyo?

I guess if you're worried global warning you could argue for reduced carbon emissions from only flying one bomber |
|
Date: October 5th, 2024 1:00 PM Author: pale boltzmann base napalm was more deadly in terms of total deaths because it was used much more frequently than nukes. nukes are significantly more deadly in terms of destructive force.

The bomb was made for boobs like you. You don't care how many people actually die, you only care how many bombs got dropped. You're retarded like the Japanese emperor, congrats. Stay that way forever. |

That's not how I'm defining it faggot. If it helps you can think of it this way:
The loser always capitulates. Capitulation is how someone says "I have no morale."
There's a nice, non-circular way of looking at the picture. Instead of trying to gauge who has the most morale, just look at who lacks it, and bet against them.
Ukraine: no morale, bet against it
Israel: no morale, bet against it
USA in Iraq and Afghanistan: no morale, bet against it.
Notice that if you follow my betting strategy you'll win every time. |

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Battle_of_Grunwald
"The Teutonic Order attributed the defeat to treason on the part of Nicholas von Renys (Mikołaj of Ryńsk), commander of the Culm (Chełmno) banner, and he was beheaded without a trial.[78] He was the founder and leader of the Lizard Union, a group of knights sympathetic to Poland. According to the order, von Renys lowered his banner, which was taken as a signal of surrender and led to the panicked retreat.[79] The legend that the order was "stabbed in the back" was echoed in the post-World War I stab-in-the-back myth and preoccupied German historiography of the battle until 1945.[78]" |

Date: October 4th, 2024 12:46 PM Author: walnut indecent spot Here's a breakdown of events that fucked Japan before Pearl Harbor. It was all about morale:
1. Japan's land army in China tried to take Siberian oil but got smacked up by Russian forces in Mongolia in 1939. Really humiliating defeat that made the Japs lose all confidence in their own intelligence. Total demoralization. In 1939.
2. By October 1941, Germany had invaded Russia, but Soviet spies in Japan reported that the Japanese army was still too demoralized to try attacking Russia again, and insisted that Stalin could safely move those units from the east to defend against Germany.
3. By December 1941, the Nazis had reached Moscow and the city was under siege. Russian troops had been moved from the east to defend Moscow, leaving eastern Russia wide open.
4. On December 5, 1941, the Japanese received confirmation that Russia's eastern forces had been seen defending Moscow.
5. On December 7, 1941, the Japanese Army refused to believe its own intelligence. The Japs thought Russians were still defending the east.
6. On December 7, 1941, since the Japs were so scared of these nonexistent eastern Russian soldiers, they chose the "safer" option and bombed Pearl Harbor.
7. When Japan was scared of phantom Russians on December 7, 1941, it was because they were still demoralized by the conflict that happened in 1939. |

Date: October 5th, 2024 12:54 PM Author: walnut indecent spot Good question. It's impossible to know I think, because the skirmishes began with the Japanese army chasing a few dozen Mongols on horses across the Mongolian border. No one expected Russians to enter the picture. What had happened was Russia had only just recently formed some kind of defensive pact with Mongolia, but no one really took it seriously because Mongolia just didn't seem important. It never occurred to the Japanese that Mongolia would treat its borders as sacrosanct, or that Russia would actually put up a real defense of a tertiary ally's borders. This border in particular wasn't even well settled and the land itself was just open plains. Then these Russians just appear out of nowhere. Look at the supply chain they created and who they put in charge of the whole operation. (http://www.autoadmit.com/thread.php?thread_id=5605932&forum_id=2\u0026mark_id=5310919#48166385) |

If Japan knew that map was accurate, they never would have bombed Pearl Harbor and they would have won WWII by April 1942. PS Japan had that map on December 7, 1941, it just didn't have the courage to trust it. No morale. |
|
Date: October 4th, 2024 1:41 PM Author: walnut indecent spot PS nukecucks: the only reason Stalin pulled that move in the first place was because he had his spy in Japan telling him "THE JAPS ARE TOO SCARED! THEY WON'T INVADE EVEN IF YOU PULL THE FORCES OUT!"
That spy had x-ray vision and could read gooks. He singlehandedly saved the USSR. Stalin trusted that spy, and pulled his forces out of the east. Say his name:
