Actually America's coastline does not guarantee its safety. In fact, it's known that there are Russian, and possibly Chinese, nuclear submarines just off the coasts. It's estimated that a hydrogen bomb missile fired from such a submarine would take only about 6 minutes to strike a target in the United States. Each sub carries many, many warheads, so that just one submarine could destroy all of the major cities in the United States; and there's nothing that they could do about it.
If any country were to get in a war with the United States it would not be in the US mainland. Any war would be the result of an escalated conflict overseas, in Europe or the Middle East. What that means is that it would not be the United States' enemies that had to worry about the distance of the ocean's, but it would be the United States that would have that problem fighting a war overseas.
You cannot use the amount of money spent in the military budget as a gauge to determine military capacity. The United States is essentially capitalist run. So the military purchases its equipment and weapons from profit-seeking companies. The United States probably spends at least three times as much as Russia for the same equipment. You must take that into account.
The video claims that Russia failed in its invasion of Kiev. If you research it you'll find that Russia never intended nor tried to capture Kiev. They had troops surrounding it but the number of troops would have been insufficient for an actual attack and takeover. What happened is that Russia removed its troops from around Kiev as a goodwill gesture to Ukraine in peace negotiations. Ukraine actually initialed that peace treaty but Boris Johnson and the Western nations intervened and convinced Zelenski to cancel the treaty and commit to war instead. You have to be careful because these things are never as they seem and there's misinformation being presented in the video that is easily debunked.
Interesting thought and you would think that that was the case when the 'barbarians' came into Italy and Rome to over throw the corrupt rulers, when in fact it was those citizens that opened the gates to them and invited them in! America is not run by the Americans for the Americans, it is beholden to outside powers and if you think that nobody in America has thought about getting rid of them and imposing a better and just system with the help of someone from outside, think again. Having said that, there are so many Americans who would be stupid enough to fight for existing system as would be the case in many countries.
Indeed. The video mentioned 120 million armed Americans, but not that 10.4 million of them are deer hunters, essentially 10.4 million snipers with camo, and trained in woodcraft. Invasion itself would be impossible, but attempting to occupy would be worse.
The stibnite (antimony) mines in the US were shut down "due to a lack of profitability and environmental concerns", not because we've used up all of our deposits as the video wrongly assumed. In other words it is cheaper, cleaner (for the US), and easier to import it from other countries. If need be we could reopen our mines and supply ourselves.
Yup. And if things got really bad we could just convert ammo over to mild steel, pure copper, or lead. . . all of which the US has in ridiculous abundance.
Don't worry about the pauses. I'm here for your opinion and reactions. I want to hear what your thoughts are on the video. If I wanted to watch it without pauses I would just watch the creators version. So never mind the people who complain. Keep doing you. ❤ From Texas 🇺🇸
Regarding the "will to fight," I had a client who was a veteran. He had to spend some time with a guy who had been in prison, and the guy from prison was giving my client a but of a rough time. My client just told the guy, "Look, we've both killed people. The difference is that I did it professionally, and I got paid to do it." The prison guy left him alone after that.
Don't ever apologize for speaking English. I speak English because it's the only language I know. You're speaking it because its the only language people like myself know. Besides, we're watching to see your reaction. If you don't talk, we don't know how you react. Your videos are great, keep up the good work.
Many people I've met over the world say that we're often the nicest people they have ever met. Some, who have fought us, admit that we are also the worst people to make enemies of. In short, don't piss off the nice guy.
“You talk too much” 😂 it’s called a reaction channel.. that’s the point. If he doesn’t stop and talk he couldn’t have this channel. Keep up the awesome posts. As someone else said check out the video “the us is ridiculously op” it’s long and it will be great to see your reaction to it. Thanks.
Never underestimate your opponent. This is built into the military doctrine. I was in the Army and we are never told that we will absolutely win...we are taught to never under estimate our opponent. I think this may also contribute to the US strategy. (Also from Texas, US)
USAF F-15 fighters have been able to take out satellites since the 1980's. We are DECADES ahead of China in this area of warfare. Our navy ships can also down satellites.
Your accent is perfectly fine, I can understand you much more easily than some US accents, and I’m an American. Your pauses in the video are totally ok as well, many TH-camrs that pause too frequently don’t have anything interesting or thoughtful to say. Also, another interesting piece of information about USA and it’s military history; the USA suffered fewer casualties in all of WW2 than it did in the American Civil War (against itself) 90 years before WW2.
He gets an upvote for the accent alone. The stereotype of Americans loving accents is true, we love accents. And I think most of us can understand people with heavy accents just fine because we're so used to being exposed to so many different people. Even rural people grew up hearing different accents on the TV.
The other thing not discussed/overlooked is that as the militarys mechanized, non lethal fleet ages out, it is put up for sale to the public at cut rate costs. Theres an ever growing segment of the population that are buying heavy duty military transport and construction equipment for personal use. That plays in to the defensible part of the civilian population against invasions on US soil.
Thank you for your attitude towards America. Not many, even here in America, appreciate the country. Our military spending allows Europe to be less responsible (spend less money) for its own security.
It's kind of crazy when you put it into perspective. The US is basically responsible for keeping every continent but Asia safe(ish). North America, Europe, and Australia, wholesale. We aid South America and Africa and the Middle East, as much as they'll let us. The scale of responsibility of the US is insane. We don't complain about it. We're happy to help. But we do appreciate others contributions. Anything that our allies can do will make things easier for us. So we can do more.
I think your pausing shows you're actually thinking and makes your reactions more genuine to me. Never apologized for thinking and asking questions. We ( hopefully) are all pausing at times to ask questions, share thoughts, and learn something new every day. Keep up your great work. Thank you for another interesting reaction.
Agree!!!! do you know what concerns me in America?? Biden completely opening the southern border and allowing people come in this country from everywhere, including at least 160 countries and for about 20 months we’ve had mostly young adult and in between the ages of 18 and 35 and they were military age man, and I don’t know what in the world there are planning to do, and how many of them are terrorists. We’ve had a lot of Chinese communist come in this country and just 26,000 alone this year and they know they can’t destroy our country from the outside in but the Chinese communist are doing their darndest to brainwash people and Buy off politicians. Even Joe Biden has given them extra jobs we’ve created except for our microchip jobs and all the renewable green energy jobs he sent over to China just like everything else and Trump says if he was elected he’s bringing everything back from China because they’re bullies and want to control the world and in order for America to get back to the point where 68% of Americans are middle class again we need our companies back here.. 1970 to 19,8068% of Americans were middle class and today it’s only 42% and most of it is because of government spending but the majority of it is because since 1993 just about all of our jobs and businesses have been sent over to China. I will look for some kind of major big terrorist ambush attack, but not to happen in one or two areas but about 10 places at the same time very similar to the Tet Offensive in Vietnam in January 1968, and there will be about five or 10 big cities with about 5000 or 10,000 terrorists were communist just breaking loose and doing some thing like what Hamas did over and Israel’. See the gun laws up north and out west are so strict and a lot of people have that crime so they can’t get guns anyway unless they have them illegally but I pity the fool’s that start doing that stuff in the south south east, and central USA because they will be getting more than I bargained for work because of all the gun owners here
About the American miltary budget. Remember the US with its allies are the guarantors of oceanic free trade, they are often the first responders to natural disasters, no one can match American military logistical capabilities.
A couple notes: This video lists the rocky mountains as the western barrier. The Rockies are the 3rd major mountain range in from the west coast of the US. You have "The Coastal range" which is actually several small coastal mountain ranges starting with the Olympics in Washington state and going down to central california through bunches of smaller ranges. This wouldn't prove much of a barrier, as these mountains are pretty small, but they're absolutely larger than the Appalachians. The Cascades are a bit further inland from the coast, but MUCH bigger. They're also referred to as The American Alps. You get mountains such as Ranier, Mt St. Helens, Mt Hood, and Shasta in this range. There are >>FAAAR
Great point, everyone does think it’s just the Rockies but in fact the west coast is riddled with mountain ranges and deserts. While also having military bases spread out all over.
Look into 'climate change' before you go on that rant. We are in an Ice Age Termination event and the warming is happening because as the NATURAL thawing cycle of planet Earth some organic matter is uncovered, which begins to rot, the microbes that eats it puts off Methane, which holds a MASSIVE amount more green house gasses than CO2, so it heats things up more, which exposes more organic matter, which then rots, gets eaten by microbes, which puts off Methane, which warms things faster, which exposes more organic matter..... se where I am going?
Beautiful and some of the nicest people I’ve met in America, live out in Oklahoma and Oklahoma City & Kansas!! it’s weird because every time there’s a war before anybody gets drafted the patriotic ones usually in the south in the southeast mid west usually go volunteer and then when the government has the draft of course they immediately draft of the poor and working class black white and Latino men. Seriously
I think some ppl sometimes misunderstand the purpose of Americas military budget. It's not just abt deterring the enemy or being the "best" or some macho bs. First, we are separated from the rest of the world by two large oceans and projecting military might outside your own boarders, let alone your own hemisphere, is very expensive. Second, it's abt the warfighter. If a siltation arises and we must put our sons, daughters, wives and husbands in harms way we want to know we've given them every advantage possible to give them the best chance to not only succeed but also to survive. Unlike the Ruzzians we don't see our soldiers as disposable.
@@garycamara9955 Keep? That implies more than once 😁 But to answer your question - IDK just your average run of the mill typo. Prob the same reason you left the pronoun "you' out of your sentence....
Please don’t apologize for talking during the video. I watch your videos to see your reactions as I already know the story of the video. I am 🇺🇸. I love your accent and love your reactions
I know viewers tend to complain about creators interrupting videos, but I don't mind when you do. In fact, I enjoy hearing your thoughts as you watch them. What I really appreciate is your logical, rational approach. I don't feel like your are trying to convince me of anything, whining or complaining, or going on (and on) about the same thing over and over. I've only seen a few of your videos, but I've really enjoyed them. Glad TH-cam brought your channel to my attention! Looking forward to exploring more of your content.
Ignore the complainers. Your input adds to the viewing. Keep one thing in mind when you think just because more amd more American citizens are getting fed up and tired of the government. We still love out country and if change is needed, we will be and are telling the politicians what we expect of them and we are willing to change things by voting out those who don't represent us. If that doesn't work, there are other ways to get their attention and change things, starting with protests, (peaceful), etc.
We are already invaded...the millions of military aged single men have been strategically moved all around the country. Placed in large cities, universities and near military bases. Many are being actually RECRUITED into our military, being taught English and given citizenship. Our military is the weakest it's ever been... right now!! All the current administration has to do is give the signal and our military bases will be taken over and our cities put on lock down. Be ready.
Don't feel the need to apologize. It's a genuine reaction. Amazingly one of the stereotypes about Americans that is true is that we will talk shit about each other but the second someone who doesn't live here or hasn't been here trashes us, we band together instantly against that common enemy. But we also love every single compliment from people who dont live here. So you are good my friend.
I like the format. The pausing to discuss and share your thoughts has not been bothersome. I think it is necessary because hearing your thoughts and ideas is the reason to watch your video instead of someone else's. Maybe the only suggestion would be to develop a habit of rolling back the source 5 seconds after pausing so, in videos where it might matter, nothing important gets missed. No issue with your English either. You seem to find the right words fine and your accent isn't too heavy to cause an issue. I know understanding people with accents is subjective, but I personally did not have any time during the video where I didn't understand what you were saying.
Hey there, I always watch your videos all the way through. Your English is good. I understand everything that you say. There is no need for you to apologize. Also, I really appreciate that you take the time to pause and share your thoughts. I wish that other reactors would do the same. It makes watching your video's really interesting. Thanks for what you are doing. Peace
Yes, they are...they are being flown to strategic locations around our country. Near military bases, in universities, and flooding large cities. People in large cities aren't as well armed as rural people. People think our government will protect us (citizens). Well, that hasn't happened in 3 years!!! We are the ones arrested, we are being spied on, we are the ones having our doors knocked in and arrested. This current administration has something VERY serious planned for 2024. Right here on our own soil. Connect all the dots.... Millions of fighting aged men being brought in and placed around the country. Legal American citizens being arrested. Government threatening to remove our constitutional rights (speech, 2A, free and fair elections). They've weakened our military with terrible policies and really bad recruitment. They've depleted our military equipment and left billions of dollars of equipment for our enemies!! Now we are already sending a good portion of our personell around the world living us vulnerable to these foreign invaders all over the country. This election year is very frightening because you know they aren't going to have a free and fair election. There will be "something" HUGE that they will do to either stop (cancel) the election, or will allow blatant fraud that they won't even care to hide.
Enjoy your commentary, pausing doesn’t bother me. It’s better to talk about it than to wait till the end and forget something. As always, keep up the good work
The only feedback I'd give is to recommend that you rewind about 5 seconds if you pause while someone is talking in the video. Doing so will avoid losing context in what is being said.
and the us also got hard evidence and convicted a number of people over the russian attempts, too. trump did ultimately turn against the russians, but that's in part from many in his own party's opinions changing back to just seeing putin as taking russia back to its old soviet crap. trump did appear to try to do similar in 2020, but on his own accord with no significant outside help, and now he's being investigated and tried over it, concurrently by both the state of georgia and the us feds
Another very entertaining video, keep it up! As others have said, keep pausing to comment! That is why I watch reactions, to see what other people (especially people from other parts of the world) think! I watch the original video first, then I watch reactors, so the pauses are great, in my opinion. There are a few reactors that will pause and look things up when they have questions, and I think that is also great. Also, your English is great, I have no problem understanding what you say.
Personally I like that you pause it and say what you think. That's the whole reason I'm watching your REACTION videos. Plus your English is ok and your accent is nice.
People often worry about us and our volatile politics and say propaganda could bring us down... But we've had volatile politics since we began... And we're still here... Its built into the system...
yeah we've dealt with a civil war so bloody, it's never been rivalled even in modern times by death count. and we have never forgotten how we got there, either, and it's impacted how we handled the riots the last 5 years or so
yeah it's this unusual concept of civic nationalism that you rarely see outside the united states at the level it exists here. like, it's nationalism, but explicitly anti-authoritarian nationalism. also why so few places outside the us are equipped to deal with american-style political demonstrations and why canadian liberals (and many europeans) confused the 2022 canadian convoy protest as authoritarian when it was really the opposite.
2:44 If people cry about you pausing a video you're reacting to, they can feel free to watch the original. I watch your videos for your opinions. It shows you actually think about a video and isn't just milking it for views.
The thing about every single American soldier is that they are willing and able to give everything they have to defend the people behind them. Imagine how demoralizing going against the greatest warriors in the history of the world would be for some communist soldiers that dont even want to be there.
yeah not only is american standard infantry training comparable to many countries' special ops soldiers, americans have an impossibly high will to fight to defend those around them. in fact, it's actually a thing that our enemies avoid killing commanders, as they're often the very ones keeping squads from going around and killing every enemy soldier on sight.
Cant wait to watch these .plus im a Portuguese American and gonna be moving there with in the yr so hearing little things u compare is cool ive been to Portugal b4 but over ten yrs ago my parent's are born there and my fiance also but its gonna be different but im excited
As for the Canadians, the United States is simply keeping them from taking out the rest of the world. The Geneva Convention (or as Canadians call it the Geneva Suggestions) start with 2 pages of things Canada soldiers did in the 2 World Wars.
it's precisely why japan's generals pushed so hard (and successfully) against the emperor's idea of hitting the us mainland. they knew full well that was a real and serious risk.
Just found your videos and subscribed. I enjoy your pauses to comment and reflect on what is being said. As an American I agree it would be impossible to invade our country, not just our military power but our armed citizens would be almost impossible to overcome.
Thank you for your positive opinions on US citizens and government. It's refreshing because these days it's far to easy to get bogged down in partisan politics. Personally I think we need to stop being so outward focused and shift to dealing with some of our internal issues. Besides, our presence serves as a bandage over festering wounds, hiding the underlying problems that need to be dealt with. These problems can only be dealt with by citizens of the country to have lasting change.
In the U.S. about 300 million people (80% of the population) own about 400 million guns. If during an invasion only 3% of those individuals came together to form a fighting force that would be an army of 9 million armed with at least 12 million firearms.
About 42% of Americans live in a household with a gun and only about a third own a firearm themselves. But the rest of your point is right-that’s still a hell of a lot of firearms and citizen soldiers.
I'm sure in most cities it's not that high but personally I don't know anybody who doesn't own a firearm. Also all four of my children the youngest being seven know how to safely handle a firearm.
Anyone that thinks The USA is an aggressive imperialistic country needs to realize that Canada still exists only because we are being nice. And thanks for admitting that even Portugal is free because of American military might.
yeah to call us imperialists is weird af. We protect out allies in europe, the middle east, and the pacific. These are people who have asked us to be there. unlike say russia invading it's neighbor.
@@ExarchGamingan argument could be made for iraq and afghanistan, but even then in iraq, the iraqis mostly want us there (bc of iran) and are happy we knocked out their rising dictator. afghanistan was a bit more divisive (hence why the taliban never truly disappeared), but even then, the majority of people there were still ultimately pro-us bc they didn't like the taliban's abusive authoritarian tendencies. if anything, the afghanis wanted us to do more than we wanted to do (like continue to augment their police force much longer after training them). between that and americans getting tired of hearing stories, the general public ran out of patience and just wanted to pull out (it went from a right wing complaint to also progressives and increasingly liberals), and so trump set the stage and biden issued the final order to withdraw. (the only major complaints we had in the us were about how we withdrew, not the fact we did it.)
I watch all your videos to the end and enjoy your outtakes on each video. I live in the south near New Orleans and I’m one of the rare people who has been in two tornadoes. Most Americans will go their entire life without seeing one. I didn’t want you to believe they just drop out of the sky at all times. The conditions of the weather have to be perfect in order for a tornado to form. Hopefully you get a chance to come visit our beautiful and fascinating country, taste the awesome foods from the south (which I’m partial to) and see some of the most gorgeous places all in one country. If anyone complains about living in America…it’s because they are spoiled and couldn’t possibly be happy anywhere. Hopefully you can visit in the future. You’ll be totally welcomed here by all.
You're right! No one picks on our Brother Canada! 🇺🇸🇨🇦 Actually, it just occurred to me that if someone attacked Canada, we would all have to fight because of NATO
Even aside from that, the US would have to respond to any invasion of Canada as a self defense measure. If Canada or Mexico were to ever form a military alliance with one of our enemies, we'd have to invade Canada for the same reason.
One key thing most people in America know is that if you are seeing and reading about our military that's just what the general population knows about. We all know that if we can buy, see or research through general media is that would be old technology. Our government is always keeping secret tech/weapons from general population eyes and are in fact 75 to 100 years ahead of what we can report out to the public. The .50 cal sniper that was just brought to the public in the last 15 years that can shoot through buildings over a mile away was used in WW2 by select strike teams. Not even other people in the military even know about it unless they are in need to know situation and someone above them grants them access to use to turn the tables of war.
An interesting one to research that is starting to make some waves in science break through. Has been used for well over 20 years in military missions is a full invisible suit that reflects background images. They also have uniforms that will fully regulated with heat or cooling if needed by the user.
Hi there. I am back. 😂 I like your accent, btw. Lol. The USA has metals it just sends them to China for processing. Over the last decade, we have restarted and built processing plants, so we won't need China to process our metals. Yes, we can make our own bullets... Don't worry.😂 Next, the USA is the inventor of AI. The USA leads the world in AI technology by a long shot. China and Russia are constantly trying to spy, steal, and hack us. Yes, this part is true. Why invent something when you can steal it. 😂 Even the Soviets (Stalin) stole the formula for nukes from us by using a German spy. None of our enemies can invade or attack us, so they hack, spy, steal, and use propaganda to get to us. The ppl 30 and up are hard to manipulate or gaslight. The younger generation from 18- 29 are ripe for believing in bullshit and are soft. They get freedom of speech and are able to protest on the blood of our soldiers who defend us.
fwiw, recently, tiktok got banned from openai for using their data to train tiktok's own ai, which is explicitly against openai's tos. and the ccp cheapskates seemingly can't even be assed to download the 3-12gb stable diffusion or fb llama data sets either, even tho hobbyists in the west are literally just running them on their own pcs... like, they could literally just go to hugging face and just download them for free with basically no restriction, and they just don't...
In spite of what some politicians may want the narrative to be; the US doesn't protect anyone in Europe - rather we all protect each other, and each partner country brings something to the table. I've worked with many people (both in the Army and as a civilian) from a vast number of partner countries. I still value the relationships, diverse ideas, and out of the box thinking/operational positions that I've shared and learned from the people I worked with. We all help each other and each partner country has a valid voice to state their position on any issue.
During the Revolutionary War, George Washington didn't have a big army. He had to rely on state militias as the War moved from state to state. Many soldiers were farmers and couldn't travel far from home.
Dude I’ve been watching your videos for weeks now, I gotta say I love your content and your accent is not a problem for me I understand everything you say! I started watching with the Fat electrician, Love his videos and I found you through him! Keep doing your things man you are definitely on the rise to become one of the best reactors on TH-cam! I’m looking forward to this channel! Much love from the USA.
Your accent makes me have to play the video a little bit louder just so I can make sure I understand everything but I could easily have a conversation with you no problem. Your English sounds great & makes perfect sense
Something to think about is if you as a country has all the resources you need, but other countries have the same resources and are willing to sell those resources, wouldn't it be beneficial to use up all the othe countries resources and save your own. Eventually the rest of the world's resources will be greatly depleted and you will still have most of yours.
We don't even use the waterways and canals due to the jones act. If cost wasn't an obstacle we could add barges to that capacity. Our Achilles heel is the diesel trucks and electric substaions. We literally have 3 moble backup substaions and they take a year to build.
We have antimony in the US, we just aren’t mining it because,we can buy it from China for much cheaper and we don’t have to deal with the pollution. We could reopen them if we needed to.
Your English is actually very good, the thing is our economy at home could be a lot better, we maintain such a strong presence by our economy basically assuming we are always at war. Because of that we are not financially devastated by going into war, but we always are frustrated that quality of life could be a lot better than it typically is. Ironically most don’t understand that this attitude actually cushions the blow
That's why you have a vlog to speak your opinion. It's your vlog you can do whatever you want. I'm glad you like the United States it makes me smile. You can stop to talk whenever you are. God Bless You
Canada is the largest supplier of oil to the U.S. in the world and we have the world’s third largest oil reserves just behind Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. We export 3.8 million barrels of crude oil to the U.S. daily.
Absolutely. 2nd amendmen!! I have one in my home, one in my car , my purse, and another concealed. As George Washington said, what separates the American Christian from all others is that he would rather die on his feet than live on his knees. My adult 2 children (son and daughter) conceal carry-legal in Ohio. When my daughter got her permit, she had to pass tests-but her husband was a sharp shooter in the military and had earned his. So she was taught well. . They are also black belts in karate and practice krav maga. We won't go down without a fight. I'm a "girly-girl" as is my daughter, but not on this topic.
Just found your channel. Loved your video. To add some context to the variety of terrains, the city of Minneapolis that was named along the Mississippi river has colder winters than Moscow. Also, remember China hasn't been in a war in almost 50 years. There is no one in their military with any actual combat experience
America's Canadian cousins may have small military, but, they're badass. Check out videos about Canadians in WW1, WW2 and Korea. In WW1, the Germans gave the Canadians the nickname, Stormtroopers.
Andre, I love your love and respect for America! You don't know what America really has they only show you our old stuff, the new things would likely blow your mind! If we couldn't get what we needed from Russia and china we would have to invent something to take its place! I think it is something that was made up because they don't like Trump! Trump actually cares about the future of America. I am here until the end, always!
As an American who does not natively speak English despite being born here, I can say your English is very good. My birth language is Catalan. Learned English starting at 3, So I could go to schools. English is sadly required for that. Less so nowadays. But definitely needed 10-22 years ago when I was in school. To this day I forget simple English words, usually making a good joke out of my failed attempts or really impressing people for knowing Catalan. So your English is amazing for someone with no obvious reason to speak it as much as you do. Good job sir.
Because of Russia's sanctions from Western nations for many decades It is therefore difficult for the Russian military to afford excessive military spending. Notice that the weapons are quite old from the Soviet era, not upgraded.
Another thing to remember is a lot of civilians here are already former military that are already trained have been in some branch of the military in the past they already know how to fight probably even seen actual combat at some point
the last antimony mine in the US closed in 2001, given its lack of profitability, and environmental concerns around the mining process. Currently, the US has no production of antimony's raw mineral, stibnite.

An interesting note about the U.S. military budget... The United States spent ONE TRILLION DOLLARS developing the F-35 fighter jet!!!!!!!
Actually America's coastline does not guarantee its safety. In fact, it's known that there are Russian, and possibly Chinese, nuclear submarines just off the coasts. It's estimated that a hydrogen bomb missile fired from such a submarine would take only about 6 minutes to strike a target in the United States.

You have to be careful because these things are never as they seem and there's misinformation being presented in the video that is easily debunked.
Don’t forget, an invasion force would have to fight the military, but the armed public!!
Yup “behind every blade of grass will be an armed American citizen” some more than others.
China is cheap knock off, they steal our stuff including chips. Their solders are starving. Watched to the end Mr. 😂😂😂
Interesting thought and you would think that that was the case when the 'barbarians' came into Italy and Rome to over throw the corrupt rulers, when in fact it was those citizens that opened the gates to them and invited them in! America is not run by the Americans for the Americans, it is beholden to outside powers and if you think that nobody in America has thought about getting rid of them and imposing a better and just system with the help of someone from outside, think again.
Having said that, there are so many Americans who would be stupid enough to fight for existing system as would be the case in many countries.
Sadly that principle no longer applies.
If China invaded tomorrow you’d have Democrats surrendering and apologizing for being White 🙄.
Indeed. The video mentioned 120 million armed Americans, but not that 10.4 million of them are deer hunters, essentially 10.4 million snipers with camo, and trained in woodcraft. Invasion itself would be impossible, but attempting to occupy would be worse.
The stibnite (antimony) mines in the US were shut down "due to a lack of profitability and environmental concerns", not because we've used up all of our deposits as the video wrongly assumed. In other words it is cheaper, cleaner (for the US), and easier to import it from other countries. If need be we could reopen our mines and supply ourselves.
Indeed, the mine in Idaho still has unmined deposits, and the US is increasing imports from Mexico and other Central American countries.
Yup. And if things got really bad we could just convert ammo over to mild steel, pure copper, or lead. . . all of which the US has in ridiculous abundance.
😂Yep. The good ole EPA. If push came to shove, EPA would get both pushed and shoved to the side, if need be.
Absolutely!!!
Don't worry about the pauses. I'm here for your opinion and reactions. I want to hear what your thoughts are on the video. If I wanted to watch it without pauses I would just watch the creators version. So never mind the people who complain. Keep doing you. ❤ From Texas 🇺🇸
Ty so much 🙌
@@european-reactsyou are doing just fine brother. You can speak English better than some Americans (looking at you Arkansas)

Well said, I mean if you look up REACTION VIDEOS and that’s what you should expect is someone to be them and react.

Regarding the "will to fight," I had a client who was a veteran. He had to spend some time with a guy who had been in prison, and the guy from prison was giving my client a but of a rough time. My client just told the guy, "Look, we've both killed people. The difference is that I did it professionally, and I got paid to do it." The prison guy left him alone after that.
Don't ever apologize for speaking English. I speak English because it's the only language I know. You're speaking it because its the only language people like myself know. Besides, we're watching to see your reaction. If you don't talk, we don't know how you react. Your videos are great, keep up the good work.
Many people I've met over the world say that we're often the nicest people they have ever met. Some, who have fought us, admit that we are also the worst people to make enemies of. In short, don't piss off the nice guy.
Walk softly and carry a big stick.
“You talk too much” 😂 it’s called a reaction channel.. that’s the point. If he doesn’t stop and talk he couldn’t have this channel.
Keep up the awesome posts. As someone else said check out the video “the us is ridiculously op” it’s long and it will be great to see your reaction to it. Thanks.
We did fight in 2 fronts at the same time during WW2. We were in Europe and Asia simultaneously and won on both fronts.

Never underestimate your opponent. This is built into the military doctrine. I was in the Army and we are never told that we will absolutely win...we are taught to never under estimate our opponent. I think this may also contribute to the US strategy. (Also from Texas, US)
USAF F-15 fighters have been able to take out satellites since the 1980's. We are DECADES ahead of China in this area of warfare. Our navy ships can also down satellites.
Your accent is perfectly fine, I can understand you much more easily than some US accents, and I’m an American. Your pauses in the video are totally ok as well, many TH-camrs that pause too frequently don’t have anything interesting or thoughtful to say. Also, another interesting piece of information about USA and it’s military history; the USA suffered fewer casualties in all of WW2 than it did in the American Civil War (against itself) 90 years before WW2.
He gets an upvote for the accent alone. The stereotype of Americans loving accents is true, we love accents. And I think most of us can understand people with heavy accents just fine because we're so used to being exposed to so many different people. Even rural people grew up hearing different accents on the TV.
@@mr44magI tend to have more trouble understanding Scottish accents than I do this guy's.
The other thing not discussed/overlooked is that as the militarys mechanized, non lethal fleet ages out, it is put up for sale to the public at cut rate costs. Theres an ever growing segment of the population that are buying heavy duty military transport and construction equipment for personal use. That plays in to the defensible part of the civilian population against invasions on US soil.
Thank you for your attitude towards America. Not many, even here in America, appreciate the country. Our military spending allows Europe to be less responsible (spend less money) for its own security.
It's kind of crazy when you put it into perspective. The US is basically responsible for keeping every continent but Asia safe(ish). North America, Europe, and Australia, wholesale. We aid South America and Africa and the Middle East, as much as they'll let us. The scale of responsibility of the US is insane. We don't complain about it. We're happy to help. But we do appreciate others contributions. Anything that our allies can do will make things easier for us. So we can do more.
I think your pausing shows you're actually thinking and makes your reactions more genuine to me. Never apologized for thinking and asking questions. We ( hopefully) are all pausing at times to ask questions, share thoughts, and learn something new every day. Keep up your great work. Thank you for another interesting reaction.

Agree!!!! do you know what concerns me in America?? Biden completely opening the southern border and allowing people come in this country from everywhere, including at least 160 countries and for about 20 months we’ve had mostly young adult and in between the ages of 18 and 35 and they were military age man, and I don’t know what in the world there are planning to do, and how many of them are terrorists. We’ve had a lot of Chinese communist come in this country and just 26,000 alone this year and they know they can’t destroy our country from the outside in but the Chinese communist are doing their darndest to brainwash people and
Buy off politicians. Even Joe Biden has given them extra jobs we’ve created except for our microchip jobs and all the renewable green energy jobs he sent over to China just like everything else and Trump says if he was elected he’s bringing everything back from China because they’re bullies and want to control the world and in order for America to get back to the point where 68% of Americans are middle class again we need our companies back here.. 1970 to 19,8068% of Americans were middle class and today it’s only 42% and most of it is because of government spending but the majority of it is because since 1993 just about all of our jobs and businesses have been sent over to China.
I will look for some kind of major big terrorist ambush attack, but not to happen in one or two areas but about 10 places at the same time very similar to the Tet Offensive in Vietnam in January 1968, and there will be about five or 10 big cities with about 5000 or 10,000 terrorists were communist just breaking loose and doing some thing like what Hamas did over and Israel’. See the gun laws up north and out west are so strict and a lot of people have that crime so they can’t get guns anyway unless they have them illegally but I pity the fool’s that start doing that stuff in the south south east, and central USA because they will be getting more than I bargained for work because of all the gun owners here
About the American miltary budget. Remember the US with its allies are the guarantors of oceanic free trade, they are often the first responders to natural disasters, no one can match American military logistical capabilities.
A couple notes: This video lists the rocky mountains as the western barrier. The Rockies are the 3rd major mountain range in from the west coast of the US. You have "The Coastal range" which is actually several small coastal mountain ranges starting with the Olympics in Washington state and going down to central california through bunches of smaller ranges. This wouldn't prove much of a barrier, as these mountains are pretty small, but they're absolutely larger than the Appalachians. The Cascades are a bit further inland from the coast, but MUCH bigger. They're also referred to as The American Alps. You get mountains such as Ranier, Mt St. Helens, Mt Hood, and Shasta in this range. There are >>FAAAR
Great point, everyone does think it’s just the Rockies but in fact the west coast is riddled with mountain ranges and deserts. While also having military bases spread out all over.
Look into 'climate change' before you go on that rant. We are in an Ice Age Termination event and the warming is happening because as the NATURAL thawing cycle of planet Earth some organic matter is uncovered, which begins to rot, the microbes that eats it puts off Methane, which holds a MASSIVE amount more green house gasses than CO2, so it heats things up more, which exposes more organic matter, which then rots, gets eaten by microbes, which puts off Methane, which warms things faster, which exposes more organic matter..... se where I am going?
@@khure711yep, all the really cool military bases are in places nobody wants to live.
Beautiful and some of the nicest people I’ve met in America, live out in Oklahoma and Oklahoma City & Kansas!! it’s weird because every time there’s a war before anybody gets drafted the patriotic ones usually in the south in the southeast mid west usually go volunteer and then when the government has the draft of course they immediately draft of the poor and working class black white and Latino men. Seriously
nit: the us military is the single largest single producer entity, but china's the country with the largest cumulative production
I think some ppl sometimes misunderstand the purpose of Americas military budget. It's not just abt deterring the enemy or being the "best" or some macho bs. First, we are separated from the rest of the world by two large oceans and projecting military might outside your own boarders, let alone your own hemisphere, is very expensive. Second, it's abt the warfighter. If a siltation arises and we must put our sons, daughters, wives and husbands in harms way we want to know we've given them every advantage possible to give them the best chance to not only succeed but also to survive.
Unlike the Ruzzians we don't see our soldiers as disposable.
Why do keep misspelling borders.
@@garycamara9955 Keep? That implies more than once 😁
But to answer your question - IDK just your average run of the mill typo. Prob the same reason you left the pronoun "you' out of your sentence....
I don't think Americans are warriors, but are team players. I think the team player aspect was on display during the 9/11 Boatlift.
Well Canada won’t to have to worry about becoming a superpower with Trudeau being the leader.
Please don’t apologize for talking during the video. I watch your videos to see your reactions as I already know the story of the video. I am 🇺🇸.
I love your accent and love your reactions
I know viewers tend to complain about creators interrupting videos, but I don't mind when you do. In fact, I enjoy hearing your thoughts as you watch them. What I really appreciate is your logical, rational approach. I don't feel like your are trying to convince me of anything, whining or complaining, or going on (and on) about the same thing over and over.
I've only seen a few of your videos, but I've really enjoyed them. Glad TH-cam brought your channel to my attention! Looking forward to exploring more of your content.
Ignore the complainers. Your input adds to the viewing. Keep one thing in mind when you think just because more amd more American citizens are getting fed up and tired of the government. We still love out country and if change is needed, we will be and are telling the politicians what we expect of them and we are willing to change things by voting out those who don't represent us. If that doesn't work, there are other ways to get their attention and change things, starting with protests, (peaceful), etc.
Unfortunately we are not invulnerable to self-destruction and self-degradation. That’s been happening over the last 60 years.
We are already invaded...the millions of military aged single men have been strategically moved all around the country. Placed in large cities, universities and near military bases. Many are being actually RECRUITED into our military, being taught English and given citizenship. Our military is the weakest it's ever been... right now!! All the current administration has to do is give the signal and our military bases will be taken over and our cities put on lock down. Be ready.
Don't feel the need to apologize. It's a genuine reaction. Amazingly one of the stereotypes about Americans that is true is that we will talk shit about each other but the second someone who doesn't live here or hasn't been here trashes us, we band together instantly against that common enemy. But we also love every single compliment from people who dont live here. So you are good my friend.
With the US intelligence community I would probably put money on them knowing the actual capability of nations like China.
I like the format. The pausing to discuss and share your thoughts has not been bothersome. I think it is necessary because hearing your thoughts and ideas is the reason to watch your video instead of someone else's. Maybe the only suggestion would be to develop a habit of rolling back the source 5 seconds after pausing so, in videos where it might matter, nothing important gets missed.
No issue with your English either. You seem to find the right words fine and your accent isn't too heavy to cause an issue. I know understanding people with accents is subjective, but I personally did not have any time during the video where I didn't understand what you were saying.
Hey there, I always watch your videos all the way through. Your English is good. I understand everything that you say. There is no need for you to apologize. Also, I really appreciate that you take the time to pause and share your thoughts. I wish that other reactors would do the same. It makes watching your video's really interesting. Thanks for what you are doing. Peace
The enemy is already inside
Yes, they are...they are being flown to strategic locations around our country. Near military bases, in universities, and flooding large cities.
People in large cities aren't as well armed as rural people. People think our government will protect us (citizens). Well, that hasn't happened in 3 years!!! We are the ones arrested, we are being spied on, we are the ones having our doors knocked in and arrested. This current administration has something VERY serious planned for 2024. Right here on our own soil. Connect all the dots....
Millions of fighting aged men being brought in and placed around the country. Legal American citizens being arrested. Government threatening to remove our constitutional rights (speech, 2A, free and fair elections). They've weakened our military with terrible policies and really bad recruitment. They've depleted our military equipment and left billions of dollars of equipment for our enemies!! Now we are already sending a good portion of our personell around the world living us vulnerable to these foreign invaders all over the country. This election year is very frightening because you know they aren't going to have a free and fair election. There will be "something" HUGE that they will do to either stop (cancel) the election, or will allow blatant fraud that they won't even care to hide.
Enjoy your commentary, pausing doesn’t bother me. It’s better to talk about it than to wait till the end and forget something. As always, keep up the good work
Ok thanks!
@@european-reacts we are here to hear your opinions so don't be afraid to voice them.
@@trevor3013 oh you are the best
The only feedback I'd give is to recommend that you rewind about 5 seconds if you pause while someone is talking in the video. Doing so will avoid losing context in what is being said.
Your English is *_EXCELLENT!!!_* Very impressive! And don’t worry about talking too much….you always have interesting things to say.
(25:45) He admitted publicly that he'd accept help, in whatever form it might come, from any other country who offered it.
and the us also got hard evidence and convicted a number of people over the russian attempts, too.
trump did ultimately turn against the russians, but that's in part from many in his own party's opinions changing back to just seeing putin as taking russia back to its old soviet crap. trump did appear to try to do similar in 2020, but on his own accord with no significant outside help, and now he's being investigated and tried over it, concurrently by both the state of georgia and the us feds
Another very entertaining video, keep it up! As others have said, keep pausing to comment! That is why I watch reactions, to see what other people (especially people from other parts of the world) think! I watch the original video first, then I watch reactors, so the pauses are great, in my opinion. There are a few reactors that will pause and look things up when they have questions, and I think that is also great. Also, your English is great, I have no problem understanding what you say.
Antimony can be an issue but Canada, Mexico both have sizeable reserves and Bolivia in South America has the 3rd largest reserves of it.
Plus our mines are closed. I'm sure they can be reopened
@@n8vsarestillhere111 Yeah, they were closed due to lack of profit and environmental issues, in a major war none of that will be a problem.
The US can always reopen the mines for those materials. We have those rare minerals we just quit mining them.
Personally I like that you pause it and say what you think. That's the whole reason I'm watching your REACTION videos. Plus your English is ok and your accent is nice.
The US has other sources for antimony and the others. Just more expensive than China but readily available.
Someone give this guy a citizenship. Clearly lives America. 💪🏼👍
There is an American in everyone
People often worry about us and our volatile politics and say propaganda could bring us down... But we've had volatile politics since we began... And we're still here... Its built into the system...
yeah we've dealt with a civil war so bloody, it's never been rivalled even in modern times by death count. and we have never forgotten how we got there, either, and it's impacted how we handled the riots the last 5 years or so
Cant forget all the ex military guys that would love an excuse to fight again
8:22 - You’re damned right. Americans would fight for Canadians.
the will to fight thing at 14:30 in the video, i believe the term most widely used is "patriotism" but one could also say "nationalism"
yeah it's this unusual concept of civic nationalism that you rarely see outside the united states at the level it exists here. like, it's nationalism, but explicitly anti-authoritarian nationalism.
also why so few places outside the us are equipped to deal with american-style political demonstrations and why canadian liberals (and many europeans) confused the 2022 canadian convoy protest as authoritarian when it was really the opposite.
2:44 If people cry about you pausing a video you're reacting to, they can feel free to watch the original. I watch your videos for your opinions. It shows you actually think about a video and isn't just milking it for views.
The thing about every single American soldier is that they are willing and able to give everything they have to defend the people behind them.
Imagine how demoralizing going against the greatest warriors in the history of the world would be for some communist soldiers that dont even want to be there.
yeah not only is american standard infantry training comparable to many countries' special ops soldiers, americans have an impossibly high will to fight to defend those around them.
in fact, it's actually a thing that our enemies avoid killing commanders, as they're often the very ones keeping squads from going around and killing every enemy soldier on sight.
Cant wait to watch these .plus im a Portuguese American and gonna be moving there with in the yr so hearing little things u compare is cool ive been to Portugal b4 but over ten yrs ago my parent's are born there and my fiance also but its gonna be different but im excited
Olá Angela! Portugal is beautiful! You will love it. All the best for you and your family 🙏
As for the Canadians, the United States is simply keeping them from taking out the rest of the world. The Geneva Convention (or as Canadians call it the Geneva Suggestions) start with 2 pages of things Canada soldiers did in the 2 World Wars.
We have a shitton of civilians with guns. Japan realized that in ww2.
it's precisely why japan's generals pushed so hard (and successfully) against the emperor's idea of hitting the us mainland. they knew full well that was a real and serious risk.
Just found your videos and subscribed. I enjoy your pauses to comment and reflect on what is being said. As an American I agree it would be impossible to invade our country, not just our military power but our armed citizens would be almost impossible to overcome.
Thank you for your positive opinions on US citizens and government. It's refreshing because these days it's far to easy to get bogged down in partisan politics. Personally I think we need to stop being so outward focused and shift to dealing with some of our internal issues. Besides, our presence serves as a bandage over festering wounds, hiding the underlying problems that need to be dealt with. These problems can only be dealt with by citizens of the country to have lasting change.
It turns out cheap drones are way more important than AI
Here in the US we can buy all the guns we can afford. And if like the Swiss i would make it mandatory.
In the U.S. about 300 million people (80% of the population) own about 400 million guns. If during an invasion only 3% of those individuals came together to form a fighting force that would be an army of 9 million armed with at least 12 million firearms.
About 42% of Americans live in a household with a gun and only about a third own a firearm themselves. But the rest of your point is right-that’s still a hell of a lot of firearms and citizen soldiers.
@@cehghanzi6477 A “household” may contain more than one adult.
I'm sure in most cities it's not that high but personally I don't know anybody who doesn't own a firearm. Also all four of my children the youngest being seven know how to safely handle a firearm.
I'm loving the Pulp Fiction poster in the background. Truly an all time great
Anyone that thinks The USA is an aggressive imperialistic country needs to realize that Canada still exists only because we are being nice.
And thanks for admitting that even Portugal is free because of American military might.
Canadians are great people also hehe
yeah to call us imperialists is weird af. We protect out allies in europe, the middle east, and the pacific. These are people who have asked us to be there. unlike say russia invading it's neighbor.
Yeah, don't get me wrong we definitely have an imperial past but the countries with US bases wanted those bases as well, it's mutual.@@ExarchGaming
@@ExarchGamingan argument could be made for iraq and afghanistan, but even then in iraq, the iraqis mostly want us there (bc of iran) and are happy we knocked out their rising dictator.
afghanistan was a bit more divisive (hence why the taliban never truly disappeared), but even then, the majority of people there were still ultimately pro-us bc they didn't like the taliban's abusive authoritarian tendencies. if anything, the afghanis wanted us to do more than we wanted to do (like continue to augment their police force much longer after training them). between that and americans getting tired of hearing stories, the general public ran out of patience and just wanted to pull out (it went from a right wing complaint to also progressives and increasingly liberals), and so trump set the stage and biden issued the final order to withdraw. (the only major complaints we had in the us were about how we withdrew, not the fact we did it.)
I watched the entire video.
I watch all your videos to the end and enjoy your outtakes on each video. I live in the south near New Orleans and I’m one of the rare people who has been in two tornadoes. Most Americans will go their entire life without seeing one. I didn’t want you to believe they just drop out of the sky at all times. The conditions of the weather have to be perfect in order for a tornado to form.
Hopefully you get a chance to come visit our beautiful and fascinating country, taste the awesome foods from the south (which I’m partial to) and see some of the most gorgeous places all in one country. If anyone complains about living in America…it’s because they are spoiled and couldn’t possibly be happy anywhere.
Hopefully you can visit in the future. You’ll be totally welcomed here by all.

You're right! No one picks on our Brother Canada! 🇺🇸🇨🇦
Actually, it just occurred to me that if someone attacked Canada, we would all have to fight because of NATO
Even aside from that, the US would have to respond to any invasion of Canada as a self defense measure. If Canada or Mexico were to ever form a military alliance with one of our enemies, we'd have to invade Canada for the same reason.
Even if Canada became more powerful miitarily it would not matter because we are like brothers with a similar history.
One key thing most people in America know is that if you are seeing and reading about our military that's just what the general population knows about. We all know that if we can buy, see or research through general media is that would be old technology. Our government is always keeping secret tech/weapons from general population eyes and are in fact 75 to 100 years ahead of what we can report out to the public. The .50 cal sniper that was just brought to the public in the last 15 years that can shoot through buildings over a mile away was used in WW2 by select strike teams. Not even other people in the military even know about it unless they are in need to know situation and someone above them grants them access to use to turn the tables of war.
An interesting one to research that is starting to make some waves in science break through. Has been used for well over 20 years in military missions is a full invisible suit that reflects background images. They also have uniforms that will fully regulated with heat or cooling if needed by the user.
Hi there. I am back. 😂 I like your accent, btw. Lol. The USA has metals it just sends them to China for processing. Over the last decade, we have restarted and built processing plants, so we won't need China to process our metals. Yes, we can make our own bullets... Don't worry.😂 Next, the USA is the inventor of AI. The USA leads the world in AI technology by a long shot. China and Russia are constantly trying to spy, steal, and hack us. Yes, this part is true. Why invent something when you can steal it. 😂 Even the Soviets (Stalin) stole the formula for nukes from us by using a German spy. None of our enemies can invade or attack us, so they hack, spy, steal, and use propaganda to get to us. The ppl 30 and up are hard to manipulate or gaslight. The younger generation from 18- 29 are ripe for believing in bullshit and are soft. They get freedom of speech and are able to protest on the blood of our soldiers who defend us.
fwiw, recently, tiktok got banned from openai for using their data to train tiktok's own ai, which is explicitly against openai's tos. and the ccp cheapskates seemingly can't even be assed to download the 3-12gb stable diffusion or fb llama data sets either, even tho hobbyists in the west are literally just running them on their own pcs...
like, they could literally just go to hugging face and just download them for free with basically no restriction, and they just don't...
In spite of what some politicians may want the narrative to be; the US doesn't protect anyone in Europe - rather we all protect each other, and each partner country brings something to the table. I've worked with many people (both in the Army and as a civilian) from a vast number of partner countries. I still value the relationships, diverse ideas, and out of the box thinking/operational positions that I've shared and learned from the people I worked with. We all help each other and each partner country has a valid voice to state their position on any issue.
During the Revolutionary War, George Washington didn't have a big army. He had to rely on state militias as the War moved from state to state. Many soldiers were farmers and couldn't travel far from home.
Canada is like our angry little nation hat. When we both fight the same people it doesn’t end well… for the other guys
Dude I’ve been watching your videos for weeks now, I gotta say I love your content and your accent is not a problem for me I understand everything you say! I started watching with the Fat electrician, Love his videos and I found you through him! Keep doing your things man you are definitely on the rise to become one of the best reactors on TH-cam! I’m looking forward to this channel! Much love from the USA.
Your accent makes me have to play the video a little bit louder just so I can make sure I understand everything but I could easily have a conversation with you no problem. Your English sounds great & makes perfect sense
Fascinating. And I watched it all. Thanks!
Something to think about is if you as a country has all the resources you need, but other countries have the same resources and are willing to sell those resources, wouldn't it be beneficial to use up all the othe countries resources and save your own. Eventually the rest of the world's resources will be greatly depleted and you will still have most of yours.
As a veteran, I would like to say you're welcome and thank you very much it was my pleasure.
We don't even use the waterways and canals due to the jones act. If cost wasn't an obstacle we could add barges to that capacity. Our Achilles heel is the diesel trucks and electric substaions. We literally have 3 moble backup substaions and they take a year to build.

We have antimony in the US, we just aren’t mining it because,we can buy it from China for much cheaper and we don’t have to deal with the pollution. We could reopen them if we needed to.
Your English is actually very good, the thing is our economy at home could be a lot better, we maintain such a strong presence by our economy basically assuming we are always at war. Because of that we are not financially devastated by going into war, but we always are frustrated that quality of life could be a lot better than it typically is. Ironically most don’t understand that this attitude actually cushions the blow
I really appreciate your respect. Says alot bro. Much appreciated
This only really started when Japan awoke the sleeping giant. This never wouldve come to pass had the world not messed with us.

Canada is the largest supplier of oil to the U.S. in the world and we have the world’s third largest oil reserves just behind Venezuela and Saudi Arabia. We export 3.8 million barrels of crude oil to the U.S. daily.
The coastal range goes from Washington to the Tehachapi mountains near LA .

Just found your channel. Loved your video. To add some context to the variety of terrains, the city of Minneapolis that was named along the Mississippi river has colder winters than Moscow. Also, remember China hasn't been in a war in almost 50 years. There is no one in their military with any actual combat experience
America's Canadian cousins may have small military, but, they're badass. Check out videos about Canadians in WW1, WW2 and Korea. In WW1, the Germans gave the Canadians the nickname, Stormtroopers.
Andre, I love your love and respect for America! You don't know what America really has they only show you our old stuff, the new things would likely blow your mind! If we couldn't get what we needed from Russia and china we would have to invent something to take its place!
I think it is something that was made up because they don't like Trump! Trump actually cares about the future of America.
I am here until the end, always!
18:53 those Chinese soldiers looked so tiny 😂
They lack the muscle power we Americans have, unless they are a black belt or a sumo wrestler. I'm sorry ! 🤣
As an American who does not natively speak English despite being born here, I can say your English is very good. My birth language is Catalan. Learned English starting at 3, So I could go to schools. English is sadly required for that. Less so nowadays. But definitely needed 10-22 years ago when I was in school. To this day I forget simple English words, usually making a good joke out of my failed attempts or really impressing people for knowing Catalan. So your English is amazing for someone with no obvious reason to speak it as much as you do. Good job sir.
Because of Russia's sanctions from Western nations for many decades It is therefore difficult for the Russian military to afford excessive military spending. Notice that the weapons are quite old from the Soviet era, not upgraded.
You haven't seen anything. Wait until you see our dew( Direct Energy Weapon)s
Another thing to remember is a lot of civilians here are already former military that are already trained have been in some branch of the military in the past they already know how to fight probably even seen actual combat at some point
the last antimony mine in the US closed in 2001, given its lack of profitability, and environmental concerns around the mining process. Currently, the US has no production of antimony's raw mineral, stibnite.
