The US is a puppet state to every country in the world that has figured out that they only have to pay pennies on the dollar against their defense budget if they can convince the US to attack their enemies for them. The US is always up for it because those defense contractors always need a fresh conflict to maintain profits.
Agreed! Inventory count; 12 assorted weapons,14,000 rounds. Last accounting year, 2004. Verified annual increase from 2004, 13%. Optics upgrades 44%. Shielded coms, 56%. REMs, water filtration, medpacs, etc., 8%. So, don't start none, won't be none. Be thankful we are a loving, merciful people. Until we aren't. Have a good day!!
I live in Wisconsin and come November 650,000 people take to the woods and go deer hunting...which makes Wisconsin deer hunters like the 8th largest army in the world.
Used to love hunting up in Bolder Junction and Crivitz back in the 1980's through the early 2000's. I only had two guns back then. A 12 gauge and a 306. semi-auto. Since I quit hunting, I've added to that collection by a few more. Not saying I need them, I just have them because I can.
Yessir. My family too lives in WI and our family including the farm could hold our own. More like 25 to 1 ratio with not only seasonal hunters, but raised in the woods, respect and study it thoroughly
@Frankenstein-1 great fishing/ hunting / adventuring out that way. Lived a little north of there in the UP for a while. Lived in a few places around WI too. Great countryside
@mattwinterberg7845 that's for sure. Hell in the country you better let it be known you bought a new car because if a vehicle pulls into a driveway that the household / neighbors don't recognize you have everyone walking slow casually holding a firearm. The American countryside will hold it's own. It would be a nightmare to invade and impossible to hold.
I say that all the time, just look at the circus right now. I never in my entire 38 yrs on planet earth have I felt so embarrassed and uncomfortable because of our government.
The problem is, it would take time to pull back leaders who have combat experience. A lot of them have left early over the last decade because of how political the military has become.
Let us not forget that not only is the population armed, it’s also full of us veterans who know what to do and how to lead. It would be a nightmare for an invading army
Also, generations of hunters, hunt during the season pertaining to the animal or bird, put meat in the freezer for the family. That has never stopped being a part of American culture. Rifle or bow, it's taken seriously and the food is not wasted.
@@anitapeludat256 absolutely! That is why the Japanese didn’t invade during WWII. They knew about our hunters. Hell just the hunters in Texas would make something like the 10 largest Army in the world.
@jamiepuente481 24+ Years here retired and my household is armed to the teeth. Ability to manufacture my own ammo and can easily self sustain and live off the grid if needed.
600 Million privately owned guns in a population of 330 Million people. That doesn't include the guns that the U.S. military possess, just private citizens. 😂
Immigrants are more loyal to the American dream and spirit than those born here. We take it for granted. We'd fall due to infighting and unwillingness to set aside differences. @@lilcaesarman
A lot of people are saying 'immigration', and that's somewhat true. When you're against a major military player, you can still win via religion or culture. It's a long-game shot, but it is effective.
Read the USMC battle doctrines. Do you see the word 'Defense' anywhere? How about 'Restraint'? Those are words officers use to sound funny. Officers are the regulators. Once they're gone, there's no one to remind the grunts what is and isn't a war crime.
And many others are Meal Team Six members whose silver bullet is cardio. And many others are septuagenarians who think a mobility scooter makes them mechanized infantry.
Some of us can get a head shot to an animal whose head is much smaller than a human from 250 yards with a .308 or 30-06 without a scope. Sometimes even if the deer is skittish and senses our presence. BTW to the first person who responded to the original comment: I'm a Texan. I'm a hunter. I can make that shot at least 75% of the time. I was never in the military. Never underestimate the power for home protection of Armed Americans who know how to shoot. If we were ever to be invaded, we would be a much more formidable force than any other nation on Earth. A person who has a handgun they've fired 50 times at an indoor range can be taught how to use that weapon by others who are experts if it is ever necessary. The fact that they will already have the weapon and some ammo is important. With the exception of Switzerland, the USA has the highest per capita ownership of firearms in every category in the world.
A few years ago during whitetail deer gun hunting season a statistical statement was printed in the newspaper that if every person that had a Wisconsin deer hunting license for that year were to stand up at once it would be the 7th largest standing army in the world.
No other country in the world has the ability to move large numbers of soldiers and equipment like the US can. That alone is enough to tilt the odds in favor of America.
Hearing some of the Axis soldier’s accounts of when they understood that they were doomed to fall in WWII a lot of them were related to hearing how the American soldiers were able to bring in certain foods that were a luxury. Such as when German soldiers captured an American and took his possessions to find out he got a fresh baked cake that was sent from home in their hands, or the Japanese hearing the US Navy had ice cream dispensers on their ships. And this was in WWII!!!
@@kate2create738can you imagine in the 1940's and your enemies have frozen goods and pretty fresh baked goods while halfway around the planet from home while ur government can barely feed you and ur like 3 days from home by truck I'd be pissed
"Wait you have more guns than people?" LMAO. Yeah. Most people buy multiple and even build their own arsenals just for themselves. Its funny to be reminded of that
Of course people have different guns for different purposes. How many screw drivers do people have? Having one screw driver ensures that it will never fit what you need.
Gotta think how hard it’s going to be for 5+ country’s that speak different languages and have different fighting tactics/ethics to combine without errors.
The United States military actually has fully fleshed out and developed plans for this exact scenario. They also have plans for alien invasion. These aren't joke plans, but seriously considered plans including projected losses and priority target classifications.
Some day, I want to see us just say "Fine, China, you wanna police Earth? Go ahead" and watch them crumble under the pressure or we just go full Helldivers and actually become this terrifying all powerful evil empire that everyone keeps pretending we are.

Exactly. For the power the US has been the best one could expect.
@@SeanWintersthat was amazing Sean…..don’t expect a response from that guy😂😂 what can he say that’s exactly what happen but it only happen because of fear now look at them…..they are not as strong as they thought they were he even called china for help they were like nah we good
Thank you I did enjoy this video. I’ve watched several of your videos recently. My first was the Generation X dangers. 😂🤣Gen Xer here and glad to say I survived 😁. Most of my generation had a grandfather who served in World War 2. Fathers who served in Korea and brothers who marched off to Vietnam. We were raised very Patriotic. We were proud to be American. Ready and willing to go off and defend our country like our ancestors did. Americans have been fighting for their freedom and the freedom of others since its inception. My family ancestors were in America since before it was America. They came from England, Whales,Ireland ,France and Germany. They fought in the Revolutionary War, the Civil War and all the others. I can only say that American people have a Spirit that is bred into them since birth. Whether in military or militia they are ready to defend their freedom and protect their country. They would rather die on their feet for freedom than live on their knees.
The US has the three largest air forces in the world: The US Air Force, the US Navy Air Force, and the US Marine Corps Air Force. Each of these are larger than any other airforce.
I understand we have our major differences politically, but those differences will not matter at all in this situation. We can fight amongst ourselves all we want, no one else is allowed. Almost like siblings
thats the real threat to the New World Order, and the evil elite which run the world. i truly believe the American spirit is the biggest threat to them.
Every opening day of hunting season in Pennsylvania the 4th largest army in the world wakes up at 4 am, sneaks outside, and hides in trees to shoot a monster buck. 🤘🏼
No joke, I was trying to drive through but had a breakdown on the vehicle, and it took about a week and a half to get the parts in. The reason the major national autoparts sotre couldn't get the parts I needed into PA? "Hunting Season started yesterday. Check back in a few days, guys will probably have gotten their bucks, and come back to work."
We typically have about a 2.5 requirement for war readiness. That means, we must be prepared at all times to fight 2 major conflicts and some minor stuff on the side; at any time. Doesn't mean we can't ramp up and ready more quickly.
I would also imagine in such atrocities and at the end of the final battle? The powers that be, our government, would indeed implement world domination and claim all territories of land and continents. Implementing The United States of Planet Earth. USPE 😂😂😂
Honestly, the US hasn't fought to truly win in a long time. We'd ask if they were done fighting, send them off to lick their wounds, then give out a huge chunk of our wealth for everyone to rebuild. We'd probably follow by requiring everyone to forfeit having militaries and put 1 or 2 significant US bases in each country of any importance. Meanwhile, we'd let them retain independence so long as they went along with our most important requests, but over time, we'd ignore military buildups, assuming that the other countries are all cowed. Eventually dealing with insurgents in many countries. But considering the scope of the conflict, we might feel pushed to demand total control over everything or all but the most amenable nations.
We have a semi famous quote from a retired general that went, "If America really want to, in a 1 on 1 fight, with no outside help, we could invade Canada at breakfast and control it by lunch." That, my friend, is scary.
Almost the entire population of Canada is within 200 miles of the US border. There is almost no defendable barriers to their population centers. That being said, there would be a fairly strong partisan element that would make securing the peace very difficult.
It'd be 'control' in the sense of occupy. Their military is small, but both extremely well trained and capable. Unless said military was mostly on board with it, their guerilla campaign would be extremely unpleasant. The population's mood would be a huge factor in how smoothly that went. I think at the moment, if people think 'this is better than Trudeau' as well could be the case? It would be over pretty fast, provided the USA didn't do anything particularly stupid in terms of occupying Canada.
“I know not with what weapons World War III will be fought, but World War IV will be fought with sticks and stones.” Albert Einstein As the fat electrician says, don’t mess with our boats haha
Living in rural arkansas and there is a small miltary base that casualy has multiple tanks (probrably more hidden) in the parking lot, just around rice fields. If we can devote that much equipment to rice fields, we can bacicaly confirm that USA has more than enough overal equipment to pull this off if they had to.
im an American and they are actually slightly off on a lot of things we also have F-24 Raptor which the pilot can just take of from where it is and it can simply float in the air if the pilot is skilled enough and its wrong about the 120 guns per 100 men its actually around 220 guns per 100 men. (This is not a joke)
Plus, the ability of the US to be able to produce goods is insane. I mean, when we joined WW2, the US ended producing more than Japan and Germany combines
Doubt it I would even bet there will be people in the U.S. that wouldn't even feel the effects/ that being said war has always benefited us with the invention of life saving tech and medicine
Hate to break through the idealism, but if someone starts a war, whoever wins, wins. There are all kinds of casualties and unfortunate circumstances because of war - but you don't get to just ignore war, or decide that everyone loses because some people died or what have you. You fight and you win, so that your family and countrymen can continue on.
2 key points to remember. In war the US doesn’t run at full capacity. Things like the Geneva Convention acts as a leash that heavily restricts what the US does. US vs the rest of the world, that leash is removed. 2nd….. the American public using the 2nd Amendment to own firearms is the only other leash that keeps the US government from doing whatever it wants with the military. Also remember that all this is based off what the US lets the world know about for what the military has, not what they have but don’t tell anyone. Additionally I can promise the DOD has thought about this and have a plan in place to gain an advantage as fast as possible.
Households that have guns typically have a few of each kind, a shotgun for close range home defense, mom and/or dad might have one or two every-day-carry pistols each, perhaps also a target pistol for sporting fun, a hunting rifle or two, and maybe one or more "AR-15 style" semi-auto rifles. If you visited a friend in America and they had firearms, I suspect they'd likely have more than one, and maybe up to 3 per person. All those firearms require ammo too, so it's not uncommon for a home to have a few ammo cans with hundreds or thousands of rounds of ammunition. Good luck to any force attempting a land invasion.
One thing they failed to mention in the video is the type of carriers of the US has compared to the rest of the world. The US has catapult launchers on every super carrier. France has similar type of carrier with the Charles de Gaulle but it's less than half the size of the US carriers. What this means is our aircraft can take off with quite a bit more weapons and fuel than other aircraft from standard carriers with ski jumps to assist take off. China built one that is supposed to have catapults but I don't think they have them working yet. The difference between a US Nimitz or Ford class carrier to anything else, even the UK's 2 new carriers, is night and day.
In the last 30 years, American civilians have purchased over 20 million AR rifles, the civilian version of the M16. There aren't that many rifles in all rhe other armies combined.
One thing they didn't mention regarding the southern east coast is that we have a natural protection from other ships landing on the main land. We have intercoastal waters. Meaning there is the mainland USA, a stretch of water, then a stretch of land, then the ocean. So there are limited areas for for smaller ships to enter through, and even smaller areas where military ships can come through. Those would be protected if enemy countries tried to land here. They may hit the first strip of land but they wouldn't make it to the mainland without heavy fire.
Lewis, I live in rural Wisconsin, there are 3 adults and 1 child in the house. There is 1 bolt action rifle, 1 semi-auto rifle, 2 AR style rifles, 1 pump and 1 dbl barrel shotguns, and 3 9mm pistols. 4 people and 9 guns. That doesn't count 2 compund bows and a crossbow. BTW, this is average for any house in my area.
Need to pump up those numbers, lol id say to be comfortable about 7 firearms per person lol. Shotgun, primary pistol, backup pistol, long range rifle, small caliber rifle, battle rifle (magazine fed semi auto(+)) and the last is user preference though probably a spare battle rifle.
Something the video didn't take into consideration is the might of the US special forces, like the Navy Seals, Army Rangers, and the Green Berets. Special forces could be dispatched to multiple countries at once and swiftly eliminate heads of state, military leaders, and destroy key targets within a matter of hours, bringing the total number of opposing factions to a minimal number with limited losses. I could see the losses to the "Major Threats" list wiping at minimum a dozen countries out of the fight within the first few days of the conflict. Canada and likely Mexico would cease to exist as countries by the end of the first week with minimal civilian casualties. With the 2 land borders secure, major threats stalled or eliminated completely, The US would bring it's might down on key locations to secure beachheads or at least springboards for future attacks. Taiwan, Japan, Tasmania, Madagascar, The UK, and Somewhere in the Middle East (likely Saudi Arabia) would swiftly come under US military control and forces could be pushed off from there to China, Australia, Mainland Europe, Korea, Southern Africa, and forces from Mexico could shift south through Central America to South America. By the end of the 6th month of the war likely a 3rd of all global powers would be eliminated and/or absorbed by the US, key resources in Africa, the Middle East, Asia, and South America would be under US control, and the remainder of Political and Military leaders would be hard pressed to keep the conglomeration of independent countries together. The cost in Human life would likely be over a billion and US casualties would likely be in the 10s of millions. It wouldn't be pretty but the war would end with the US still the most powerful nation in control of more territory than the British Empire at it's height, though it probably couldn't keep all of it, ceding much back to various countries at the political bargaining table, The US would retain at least Canada and Mexico dividing both up into several states and incorporating them in the union.
We should take Mexico now anyway. The cartels are running it and invading us already. Also, we could negotiate with Canada for their western provinces with financial benefits for them to consolidate the western half of north america for US.
I think you think ranger regiment is bigger than it is. And the logistics that go into supporting missions like what you picture as a first strike. One SF team has dozens to hundreds in support when you consider logistics, communications, the aircraft, then the maintainers for the aircraft/ ordinance... Hell even cooks to keep all those fed. I'd type more but I've been up for 30 hours at this point and am starting to see sounds😅
The fact of the matter is that the United States has been defending most of the world for so long that most countries have neglected military spending while the United States has poured taxpayer dollars into updated technology and weapons. The actual goal for the American military complex is to have enough resources and power to conduct three separate campaigns at once.
I am an an American and am a US army veteran. Right at this moment the US has around 1.2 million serving military between 5 branches, Army, Airforce, Navy, Marines and the Coast Guard, but we have around 2.5 million reserve and national guard troops that could be called back up for duty. There are no other countries with that many service members.
To further answer your question about the US having enough equipment/man power, these analytics aren't saying anything about the US having the ability to impose a Draft. They can easily triple the man power of it's forces by imposing a Draft. My Grandfather's high school year book (during WWII) had only 2 men in the photos, they were already in uniform, the rest were in the War.
6:18 It comes down to number of transports. Theres not enough military transports in all of Europe to transport enough men and materials to the U.S. to capture and hold a proper beach head. However, in all likelihood, such a force would be sunk long before they ever reached our shores. The U.S.A.F. and Naval aviation is no joke.
Yup. As soon as you take nukes off the table it becomes "How you gonna get here?" and there is simply no way any one or any GROUP of nations have the lift capacity to move a real invasion force that our satellites won't see and our navy won't sink long before they get to land here.
theres also the draft, in case of an emergency situation like that the US military can demand men(and women i think) around the country to join the military immediately which would also vastly increase the number of available soldiers
You needed this to wake you up? Sorry but i do understand most of us Americans have been in the dark about our "Shadow Govt' " I am glad you are awake now! Hold the line Patriot hold the LINE!
Due to how our manufacturing industry left, we have huge warehouses, same ones that roared to life in WWII, that can be fired up at any point, if we needed. (US here)
11:30 NOPE the US is in actually self sufficient with oil production. This metric idea that it’s not comes from the fact that the US ALSO exports oil from the US territories like Texas and has slow down pipe lines in Alaska. But don’t be mistaken , the US is INDEED self-sufficient with oil if it decided to STOP all exports. 😅
We would have to retool our refineries to handle the light, sweet crude we produce here (instead of the heavy, sour crude we import currently from the Middle East), but you're right.
As others have said, we own many many many many many guns.....did I mention many? There roughly 16 million veterans. Say 10% of that would be infantry vets. So you have 1.6 million. Then you'd have special forces in that mix as well. All Marines are trained to be leaders. A lot of the Marine Corps infantry has some speciality to them. I for instance was part of 1st. Btln. 4th. Marines, 1st Mar. Div Alpha Co Raiders. Many of my unit went on to become Force Recon and Scout snipers. Then you have the U.S. military, reserves and National Guard. THEN you have the weapons that no one knows about. During the Gulf War, the F117 and B-2 was unveiled. The A-12 first flew in 1962. It evolved into the SR-71. And that was in the 60s! Very very few people knew of their existence. Imagine what they have now, 30 years later. All of that plus all of the logistical and geographical challenges would make it near impossible. And if the U.S. did get invaded, what then? Could the world continue to be able to occupy it? For years and decades? Finally, what benefit would there be to doing this? Seriously, it would cost the entire world, the world. Wipe us out and what happens then? The world dies. Yep, we are that important.
There was a board game created back in the 80s or early 90s called Fortess America. It was based on wargaming exercises to replicate this precise scenario. In the end there are two major reasons the attack on America fails. First, we are geographically and geologically impossible to hold. Second, due to the 2nd amendment, enemies have to take every house because so many citizens are armed (the game called them 'partisans' and they would pop up randomly all over America, even behind enemy lines. Combined with high technology, well trained and equipped fighters, and massive in-country resources, it is practically impossible to successfully 'conquer' the United States. And that is also why no state shall be allowed to secede from the Union.
The thought process behind wow you guys have more guns than people. Here’s the deal. There are lots and lots of homes here that do not have guns, but those of us do on guns rarely have a gun. Once you have one, you gotta have them all.
The 4 core branches of the US military aren't directly responsible for defending the mainland of the US, as these duties fall on the national Guard under each states control. This frees up the other 4 branches as well as US Agents such as the CIA to distabilitize regions and occupy strategic locations
Also as to the US being stretched out, our home front would easily be defended by the military personnel already posted inside our boarders, coast guard, national guard, and militia. Keep in mind what this video does not mention, our civilization population with guns, has a very large percentage of hunters with sniper level skills, lots of the remaining are also ex military or have been training most of their lives. We could easily field 1 million skilled civilians to support our professional military. Also our air force has a large amount based in country. This would leave a vast majority of our navy, army and air force free to fight in the other areas. We already fought in two separate theaters in two world wars. We pretty much have twice the forces now then we had for WWII... So no we wouldn't be stretched thin at all. 18:27
Actually we have about 1.5 million troops now, we had 12 million in WW2. In WW2 we had roughly 150 million population, now we have over 350 million population, so we probably could muster abd draft or just get volunteers to reach 50-100 million troops.
@@pasqualecavallaro6671 To be fair, we are also extremely less reliant on individual troops now, with our modern equipment, and vast superiority. Why have 100 boots on the ground, when two men, a pilot and their copilot, will get the job done in a few hours, what would take the 100 men a few days.
As An Actual American I just died laughing 😂 XD watching 👀 this LOL XD 😆 🤣 TY 4 Making This I Had A Real Blast Watching 👀 It LOL XD TY 4 This with Love from The Actual USA 🇺🇸 Democratic Mililanils Community Educator Amber Lynn Winland 😊 🦭🇺🇸❤️🩹🕊🦋❤️🩹🇺🇸🦭🎓❤️🩹🕊🦋✌️🦋🕊🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🕊🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋🦋❤️🩹🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🕊🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸🕊🦭🦭🦭🦭🦭🕊
There was a post describing a French soldier's appreciation of us forces. He says "when you're pinned down you better hope you have an American by your side. When you call them for support their only response is, where are you?"
Imagine if America 1 day just went "You know what? Fuck it. Bring everybody overseas home." And just stopped protecting any other country besides America. Imagine the number of wars that would start within 48 hours.
A lot of people claim that it’s not possible since the USA has lost wars but what they don’t understand is that those wars were never fought at full capacity
They are not really wars either, we go in complete our objective then just hang around, until we are pulled out. We are not there to take over a country just to complete an objective which always gets done, people call that losing, but it's not if we didn't go in for total war. We just hang around to long and it brings resistance and looks like we were pushed out but in actuality our mission was complete.
"Agenda wars" are not meant to be won per say, they are for an 'agenda' and once that is achieved then we pull out or back off. To the world it looks as if we lost or just stopped fighting, but in reality we won what we set out to achieve OPS
Also we didn't lose those wars in the traditional sense. We were kicking all kinds of ass in 'nam and afganistan and iraq. It was more that we just got tired of fighting and gave up.
“We can never invade America,” Japanese Admiral Yamamoto has been quoted as saying. Yamamoto, who attended college in America, explained his logic this way: “There would be a rifle behind every blade of grass.”
While I agree with the notion, Yamamoto never actually said that. I believe the line comes from either the movie Tora! Tora! Tora!, or the Movie Midway either way it is a Hollywood ad lib
@@buzzkillingit3892 Pretty sure there's crazy disparity on the state level, I would guess California has less than 50 per 100 and Texas has more than 200 per 100. If you have to invade do it through California where nobody has guns XD
One thing that is always forgotten about is the amount of reserve units, national guard and state malitia units we have along with the vast number of Vets who wish they would
600,000 thousand reservist and guard. 16.5 million vets, many with combat skills, some with support skills (medical, dental, etc... but still trained to fight.
Plus the draft putting every military aged male and female into armed forces but what is not thought of here we are not fighting straight up we are decimating other countries economies by controlling certain things and if we can't control them we would destroy them so that no one else could use them. So right off the bat we would hurt alot of countries just by controlling the oil and more then likely canada would surrender and other countries and just join with us.
In 2016, when it flooded in Louisiana, my entire neighborhood of approximately 500 houses was entirely evacuated in less than half an hour by the cajun navy. Thats an average of 1500 people in 30 minutes. That is quite small in comparison to 9/11 but its just insane how fast civilian organizations are able to move people, now imagine the military
Retired combat veteran here. 13 years in the USMC. The average person has NO IDEA what kind of military capability the US actually has. There are things I've seen deployed on the battle that would blow your mind, and that was 10-12 years ago for me now. Movies and video games have lulled a lot of you into thinking you're country could stand a chance against American in a global conflict. The truth of the matter is if it came down to full scale war where we didn't have to preserve assets...it'd be over for you all in a month.
I take comfort in this fact as well as in the countless veterans I know that could help my learn how to shoot. I'm not a gun owner myself, but have shot rifles and pistols before. But what differentiates veterans like yourself and the rest of us citizens is the training and the discipline. Utmost respect for those that serve. You all would be the backbone of defending our freedom and I would be the cannon fodder.
Army Ranger and we are in a World War right now and have lost our position in the world. It's China, Russia, Iran and the last war we won was WWII. Split up Korea and ran, ran out of Vietnam, still in Iran and ran out of Afghanistan. America is done.
Remember, the Geographical advantage is so good that when we fought the UK in the revolution we won, and they were easily the most powerful military force at the time
An equal number of colonists supported the crown as supported the revolution. There are a lot of reasons as to why the British pulled out of the colonies.
Saying Britain was the most powerful military force at the time is an understatement. They were the original super power in the world, with influence reaching across the globe at the time of the revolution. Funnily enough, that's one of the reasons they lost. They got spread too thin fighting too many wars, similar to us now.
Lol in reference to minute 18:30 when you're thinking that the US would be stretched too thin, remember the Pacific theater in WWII. As a citizen of the UK, it may be easy to forget about the fact that for the entirety of the the US involvement in WWII, it was fighting Japan pretty much by iteself while simultaneously providing the backbone and often times driving force of the European theater's war efforts
Tiny bit more trivia, when the Japanese bombed Pearl Harbor, they sank 46% of the Pacific Fleet. I don't know how much that represents of our entire fleet, but that's a pretty healthy chunk to lose when we were entering into the second World War.
There are some missing parts in this video. The US would have strategically occupy our two neighbors. Their military is now the US military. Their wealth is now the US wealth. Cyber attack… the US would just disconnect from the rest of the world. We would return to Arcnet where military installations have access to each other and everything else is blacked out until control is achieved. From there it would be a systematic overcoming of smaller friendlier countries to become Vassal States during wartime using propaganda and a show of strength. I would believe within a months time the North America continent, Japan, and Australia would be Allied with the US. Taiwan already has a military presence there… the US not leaving without destroying those factories. So the US does not have to worry about Taiwan. I would assume the US fleet would cripple the UK rather quickly. Not conquering. Render them ineffective. So now the only area of contention is Europe and Asia. If the US controls all of the shipping lanes and has air superiority… the war is over. The US can just starve everyone else out.
Honestly this is just what is currently in the military, naval crews, and pilots. If a war like this did break out, there would be a draft and the shear number of all three front would be heavily inflated with more Americans.
Also forgot to mention each state has a lot of militias that are extremely paranoid. And it gets worse the further south and west you head from the northeast.
This is why when we hear about places like “little Ole’ North Korea” talking trash it’s immensely comical for them to think they have even the slightest bit of chance😂
I think that there is no way the leaders of North Korea are not aware of their microscopic chances but they tout that rhetoric to maintain power and maintain the cooperation of their people
The primary reason it makes us nervous is because their leaders are unhinged, would not submit to the Geneva convention, and would undoubtedly use nuclear weapons if they had them, the world be damned. We could put a stop to it for sure… but we value life more than they do.

you have to remember, this is based of what is currently publicly available, and the current known military aircraft that the U.S. has has the radar footprint of a small bird, and according to the rumors lately, they have fighter jets that are entirely drone piloted, meaning no physical pilot, but even scarier, is that these drone piloted jets would have a small deployable drone fleet using AI that would seek out targets, and also intercept incoming fire to make sure the main jet survives, and we don't know the footprint of these new jets, but going by the history of how they keep shrinking in radar footprints, it'll come down to physically spotting it in the air, and by then, it will have already struck and left.
Those aren't rumors, and the drone fleet thing was actually already used in a conflict already, where the US deployed multiple series of drone fleets to occupy and confuse antiair systems, to enable bombers to fly over, see where the anti air was, and then precision bomb them. This was during Operation Desert Storm during the Gulf War. And this was done back when drones were just surveilance tools. Imagine now, when they have the ability to attack you. Apparently this event during the operation was called "Pubar's Party" after the man who had the idea to do this.
i feel like also he doesnt understand the difference between a third world country vs a first world country. he keeps saying this is where the rest of the world is and its like yea cool they have bodies but those rocks theyre throwing arent gonna do shit against the stealth bombers or a tank. like our technology is 50 years ahead of the closest country in terms of weapon superiority so imagine the third world counties. they wont do shit
@@brutalballer Add to that, foreign countries only know about the tech we are willing to sell, not the stuff 50 years ahead of them that we keep to ourselves.
@@JaymesMorrowhe also doesn't understand that the US forces in the rest of the world would f them up before leaving. In recent years they've made everything into a missle truck, if it moves it shoots. On the bright side if that war happened our national debt would be gone.
A lot of people don't realize how much oil the USA has but isn't using. According to the USGS, the U.S. has 373.1 billion barrels of technically recoverable reserves. However, at current consumption levels, these reserves would only last about 50 years. Yeah, we're not worried about running out of Middle Easts oil, we have plenty of our own, it's just untapped.
25.81 million Americans went hunting in 2022 and it was decreased from the year before. An estimated 393 million firearms owned by American civilians. Nearly a thousand privately owned tanks in the USA. 283,400,986 vehicles registered in the USA and a hell of a lot of welders that could make em bulletproof
Chris Rock joked after the war in Iraq (which fell after 3 weeks) “you couldn’t take Baltimore in 3 weeks!”. He’s not wrong. 😂 and just think of the stats of America’s military capabilities - that’s what America WANTS the world to know about. Think about how much we keep secret. 🤫 Cool video, thanks for sharing!
The Japanese empirer during WW2 said he would not attack the Continental U.S. because the barrels of guns would be like the blades of grass in a field (they are everywhere)
@@macatac76921 he wasn't the emperor, he was an Admiral named Yamamoto and he never actually said that, its a myth, in reality its from a movie aha, sorry to be a party pooper.
Chris Rock has no idea but he does tell some funny Jokes kind of like that one.....There are certain units where we could put most major cities in martial law all at the same time within 24 hours not just one city but dozens at the same time....I think he forgets if martial law would get implemented the hands up don't shoot victim mentality goes out the damn window......
@Oriii-uu4py that's us transporting ENLISTED troops over seas. That's the ones that sign up to fight. Now imagine pushing America where between the age of 18 and I think 50 have to fight. Everyone has there own firearm. Then having to fight through the appalachian mountains, the swamps of Georgia, the desert near Arizona, the everglades of florida, the open fields of the entire Midwest. Good luck.
@@Oriii-uu4py Not true, necessarily. The USA chose to give up on all of those conflicts due to costs and strategy. It doesn't make sense to keep throwing life, money, and time at something that is clearly not working in your favor. Also, The USA tries to be civil in war, in other words we don't do like General Grant in the civil war and wage Total War anymore because we want to be seen as heroic and humanitarian on the world stage. If those tactics and brutality and the full force of the US military were used for those conflicts and we were more interested in the regions then they'd still be under US control today. Those fights were only fought with a very small percentage of the US military. We just weren't that interested in holding those assets as they strategically are not very important. Also, we helped to rebuild Vietnam after the war and though we didn't win we destabilized the region and ensured they'd never be a threat. Now we are allies even. These wars were not fought for nothing my Family was personally involved in a number of wars, as I come from a military family. Vietnam, Korea, and WW2 to name a few. Believe me though in a war against the world or for our survival every citizen in America becomes a conscript and a lot of us are veterans that already know how to fight. We would set aside our differences and win and we would employ total war policies where we destroy crops, livestock burn houses, forests, and anything that could be used as a resource by the enemy. Total war was very horrible, but it was effective and part of the reason why the north won in the American Civil War.
@@riptidegamer you are the prime example of a brainwashed american. Nothing usa done is considered heroic on the world stage. You dropped atomic bombs on civilians, your own generals admitted it had nothing to do with pearl harbor but to scare soviets. it was the soviets who beat Hitler not usa, you helped but soviets did the heavy lifting. lmao you didnt rebuild Vietnam hahaha. only reason the north won the civil war was due to Mexico stopping the French, if the French won against Mexico their goal was to send aid to the confederates.. you really have no clue about your own history... this is the problem with usa education system, they change it to make you seem like the good guys in conflicts
look just give us the oil and everyone will get paid alright no need for fighting..... oh shit what's that?! oh sorry that was my drone. i didnt mean to park its payload in your face like that. my bad bro. now about that oil, you aren't using it...right?
I'm just an average broke American, just above the US poverty line. All ya need is a "handful" of firearms, with 10's of 1000's of rounds per firearm. I have hunting experience, ... If any invading country entered my state (sovereign country) within the United States, they would be severely disadvantaged. Just an everyday American.
Thank you in advance. People don't realize that some other countries think we don't deserve what we have. We do. Our forefathers fought to create it and we work to keep it every day.
I'm with u homie! I'm a former food and beverage engineer too. But I have no guns as I'm a felon. But if we got invaded best believe I'd find a pew pew real quick!
Yup! I'm also gun broke!! I sleep on top of 50 thousand rounds. Our gun room kinda run our of room. Plus our lab was so fat she got hung under the bed, so husband solution....put the bullets cases under the bed!! So glad to hear from another broke gun person. We may not have money, but are very very gun rich!!😊😊😊😊
That's how we won our independence - a large amount of people with practical experience using their personal firearms in familiar territory. People will right the hardest to defend what's theirs and nobody is as proud of what they and their predecessors have built than the average American.
That # is based on the commonly accepted 400 million guns in America claim that was first reported in the 1990s, Best estimate today, closer to a billion than 400 million guns in USA.
the thing most dont realize is that we civilians will not have to follow the rules of engagement that our servicemen have to we will not have to wait for the green as a louisiana born it would truly be a hold my beer war lol
@@butter3413 I don't believe that looking at it as a percentage of GDP is really the most valid way to make a comparison between countries. It seems to me that looking at military spending as a percentage of all government spending makes more sense. I've tried to go through the US federal budget (by categories) to add up all of the military related expenditures. They don't make it very easy.
@greeneyedlady5580 If there was another way besides GDP I would've used it, however that is the only metric the US government uses to track its spending(publicly available). However the percentages was what the government spend both Mandatory and Discretionary spending relating to the military as a total average.
