  1. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    The Japanese couldn't ignore the U.S. Not only was there a serious case of bad blood, going back to before WW I, but the U.S. bases were an absolutely mortal danger to the Japanese plans. Wake gave easy access into the Mandate for any American fleet and the place was being built up to handle...
  2. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    Oh, absolutely. The Japanese couldn't ignore the Philippines during the lunge toward the Southern Resource Area, and that meant war with the U.S. The question is would the U.S. be providing assistance to the Soviets if they are not co-belligerents, especially if the UK is not in serious...
  3. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    How long does this take? Keeping in mind that the goal is to allow the Reich to concentrate on the USSR in the critical 1941-42 period, will it happen quickly enough to impact that? The UK has close to the same warmaking capacity as Germany, although that balance is throw off by the addition...
  4. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    Force the Italians out of the war? This would require an invasion of Western Europe would it not? Or will the Balkans be the path? Either way you are invading the European Continent into some of the worst terrain possible. Even if the British achieve this (which isn't all that simple) does it...
  5. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    I really don't disagree with either of you. What I tried to do was be as objective as possible when answering the OP. Japan was so far out of its depth, even without considering that it was in an unwinnable war with the Chinese (just too few Japanese and too many Chinese for the math to ever...
  6. Why is it considered unlikely for Germany to win WW2 in this forum?

    Welcome to the Forums! Two different questions/answers - Japan Japan had no hope of actually winning a war against the United States. Even the Japanese leadership knew this. What they expected, with a few notable exceptions, was to be able to knock the Americans (and the European...
  7. WI: Sirhan Sirhan's pistol jammed?

    Thread locked lest even more lemmings decide today is a good day to hop off the cliff.
  8. WI: Sirhan Sirhan's pistol jammed?

    You come out of a thread where someone is kicked for this sort of stupidity and START a thread dedicated to promoting other, even less possible conspiracy theory (Sirhan Sirhan was taken down with the murder weapon literally still hot from firing in his hand). I can only conclude that this is...
  9. WI: Oswald's rifle jammed?

    Be glad that in the most recent interpretations of Board Policy this isn't an insta-Ban. Kicked for a week. When you come back, leave the Black Helicopters in your other jacket.
  10. AHC: Destroy the Kaaba with at least 1000 casualties

    Since there seems to be absolutely no reason for this thread, and it has been reported multiple times, I'm locking it.
  11. AHC: Destroy the Kaaba with at least 1000 casualties

    I am sort of curious what the point of this whole thread is myself. Be VERY interested in the answer.
  12. AHC: Modern day tyranacide more common.

    Okay, I have to tip my hat to you. You found a way to parse my last warning to you about mass killing and still manage to start a thread that is solely focused on murder. You seem to be utterly fascinated with murder, the more spectacular the better. Bit freaky actually. Congratulation on...

    Lighten up.
  16. Romans cross the Atlantic

    Calm down. You have asked a series of questions. You haven't liked the answers because they do not fit into your preconceived hopes for this thread. That sucks. Doesn't give you the okay to insult.
  17. Pop Culture Plausibility Check: Star Wars

    Over reaction much? You respond to a completely reasonable comment by biting the poster's head off? Really? Don't do that.
  18. AHC\WI: Pakistan invaded alongside Afghanistan for its support of the Taliban?

    Congratulations. You have become a front runner for the dumbest post of the 1st Quarter of 2014. Your award for this achievement is a no expenses paid week's vacation. Here is your bucket and sand shovel, please proceed to Kicked Beach. See you in 7. BTW: This post was a wobbler. This...
