The timing as well.

HAH

this is probably the funniest thing to come outta the Pacific Theatre TBH

I'd say it was a "good try". Maybe rational in the context of "the best they could do" but actually doing it was suicide.

Recommend the video and the rest of series if you can find it

*"Yamato has reached nearly mythical status, a perfect example of Japan’s fascination with doomed, futile heroics."*

BEEEEENZAI

Meanwhile, the fascination with Japanese anime and feminization continues its march across the West.

```Regardless of the provenance of the quote, Yamamoto believed that Japan could not win a protracted war with the United States. Moreover, he seemed later to have believed that the Pearl Harbor attack had been a blunder strategically, morally, and politically—even though he was the person who came up with the idea of a surprise attack on Pearl Harbor. It is recorded that "Yamamoto alone" (while all his staff members were celebrating) spent the day after Pearl Harbor "sunk in apparent depression"```

Well I guess the writing was on the wall.

He later got shot down I believe

Yeah

IIRC we intercepted some transmissions that stated where he'd be

or at least what plane he'd be in

(maybe both)

I like how we cracked their code before the war started

"The information provided by the British delegation was subject to carefully vetted security procedures, and contained some of the greatest scientific advances made during the war. The shared technology included radar (in particular the greatly improved cavity magnetron which the American historian James Phinney Baxter III later called "the most valuable cargo ever brought to our shores")"

Trump: "the rules say I have to run for office again if I want to sit for a second term, so I guess we'll have to do exactly that"
No one:
Leftists: REEEEEEEEEE FASCIST

Trump Dynasty begins when?

idk the evil side of me thinks Trump should just turn the US into an actual dictatorship and give the left exactly what they've been asking for, so I guess 2024? 🤷

yes

"we have been calling you a dictator for 8years now. I can't believe you are actually a dictator now!"

TIS JUST A PRANK BRO

It isnt tyranny if you get a Plebiscite in favour of it

Trump for Galactic Emperor of the Milky Way

yes

Shitty grammar made it sound like the "extra" term he asked for was extra past 2024. Prohibited, but not fascist.
