Well, it's way off topic, but I can take it there.

I'll start with my granddad who lost a leg in the Philippines, fall of 1944.

Doug MacArthur wanted to wade ashore and tell the newsreels "I have returned"....so we suffered sixty-odd thousand American casualties when it would have been easy to keep the Japs bottled up there.

Your grandad has filled your head with garbage.

Macarthur was the only voice of common sense. He opposed the formation of the UN, and intended to clear the communists out of east asia.

Truman would have none of it. Truman was responsible foe many of the failures, including in the Plilippines, where he kept a logisstic leash on all operations for no good reason.

TV was used skillfully by the globalists to defeat Mac in ‘52. I watched it, and it made me sick, and I was just a kid.

The anti-Macarthur forces are responsible for the mess in Korea and the rest of asia that we have today.
