Also the idea something was Drained (I think you meant) I’m not even sure what this means but it had little to do with money. All war is money but that’s not why. It was the style of fighting. It wasn’t a “fair” fight in terms of overall strength but odds were evened by the oppositions tactics reducing numerical advantages to Nil. You cite things like the Afghan war again absolutely nothing to do with Money - this was overall objectives issue (nation building) plus opposition strategy again. Sprawling terrain to hide and spread out forces in difficult terrain is tough to habitually fight with prototypical munitions and matériel.

[@UnchainedAmerica]

You forget every single skirmishes the military committed against every native tribes on American soil.

America VS the smallest country in the world that has 1 pint of oil:

[@UmUs]

No, you don't get it, they're hiding Weapons of Mass Destruction/terrorists (oil)

[@emberfist8347]

We never invade for oil that is a myth. We have plenty of oil in our own territories. We also went to Afghanistan for longer than oil rich Iraq.

The Spanish Empire had a better service rifle ( Mauser and 7mm )and cartridge than the US( Krag and .30-40) at the time

[@ByTheSpirit84]

Honestly surprised the Third Punic War wasn't mentioned... that was the definition of unfair lol

[@s.wvazim6517]

Rhodesiz bush war..the winners lost and the loosers won...now thats unfair

[@ThundarBarBar]

Everyone talks about the F117 but the F111s did most of the hard work. A lot of the imagery from f111s got credited to the stealth fighters. The “stealth fighter” got all the credit. Ask an aardvark pilot who served in the first gulf war about it.

15:25 wait a second that seems familiar... WAIT you know what nvm i don't wanna be called out for that

[@omnishishah4016]

In regards to the Italians using poison gas it was in retaliation since the Ethiopians used to castrate and kill POWS.

[@SevereWeatherCenter]

4:58 Did I hear Ace Combat music?

[@Persona-Is-Trash]

[@jpeckdraws3932]

[@4111kack]

I love when you see the voice behind the voice

[@mythicaller]

Imagine being a president that wants just some land and all of sudden all countries in the world team up on u

[@briansinger5258]

You missed the one where Germany fought the USSR, France, England, India, Canada, Australia, the USA, the Netherlands, Scandinavia, Poland and more at the same time, and even took the handicap of having to feed and protect Italian soldiers.

[@ElizaWebbg]

Italian soldiers didn’t need harboring. It’s a common myth spouted post 1943 as the eastern front collapsed. The reason Italy underperformed was Hitlers pact was forcibly enforced drawing Italy into a 1940 conflict unprepared.

[@oslonorway547]

So all is not always _"fair and square"_ in war like that quote say. 😅
