And what country can preserve its liberties if their rulers are not warned from time to time that their people preserve the spirit of resistance? Let them take arms.

The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants.

The Japanese will be flying the other way shortly.
They fly F-15s but upgraded with Japanese hardware--and engines that are licensed from Pratt & Whitney--but built in Japanese factories (so probably tweaked to perfection).
Not their propaganda. It's from "Victory Through Air Power" (1942), a United Artists/Walt Disney production. See minute 51:00. Oh heck, watch the whole thing with the advantage of 81 years of hindsight.
Yeah.... didn't work out quite like they planned.

DeletePredictive programming? They couldn't even defeat the US or hit the ship in their propaganda film. Kinda funny if you ask me!
