One small issue: during the Russo-Japanese war, America wasn't as involved in the war. They supported Japan, of course, but mainly diplomatically. But the only reason Ukraine can continue the war is American support. America can end the war very quickly if it wanted to... by losing said war. Other than that, there's no quick solution.
I’m 59 years old and served in the Army for half of my lifetime, 30 years. the Ukrainian war is the stupidest war of my lifetime… all wars are stupid, but this is beyond. Great video Sam. Two of my three favorite presidents, Washington being the third.
It's a bit of a double edged sword. Putin started the war, basically to get hold of Ukraine's resources, and to create a new Great Russian Empire. After his puppet lost the election, he started a proxy war in Eastern Ukraine, and annexed Crimea in 2013-2014. By controlling Ukraine he would go for Moldova, and Georgia next. This would have Russia in control of global prices of wheat, natural gas, steel, and other stuff that pulled out of Ukranian soil. Russia' GDP has for many years been the same as Italy, and if you compare the size, and the vast amount of natural resources Russia has, you have to wonder why it wasn't bigger. Russia needs to lose the war, and learn the lessons that Germany did after WW2. Russia needs to be humbled, they live in the delusion that they are the best country on the earth, and that they can do nothing wrong. War is expensive, not only in human suffering, but also in money. If Russia wins, cost of living is not going to go down, not in Europe, not in the USA. and the world will be more unstable. The only thing stopping Putin is NATO, that's why the Baltic countries, and now Sweden and Finland haven't been invaded yet.
Great history lesson Russo-Japanese War and TR brokering the peace in Portsmouth NH. Also drawing the parallel between TR and DJT. BOTH are peacemakers. But most important “Pray for Peace”, blessed are the peacemakers. Excellent video Big Sam. Thank you.
Big Sam, I am a long subscriber to your channel. Until now, politics was not a part of it. I respect your admiration for the current President, but as a history major I disagree with your comparison of him to Theodore Roosevelt, who was truly a great American President. Roosevelt, as you mentioned, bravely served our nation’s military (not avoiding service hiding behind a doctor’s note while playing collegiate sports), Roosevelt fought to protect/preserve our natural resources (not open for and ruin for oil/coal), Roosevelt was a major force for anti-trust legislation (not giving oligarch billionaires unfettered influence on our government), and Roosevelt did not threaten our longstanding strongest allies (Denmark and Canada), Roosevelt wanted/pushed for the US to fight in France (not abandon Europe), and Roosevelt projected strength, honor, and solid character. And no nation dared to insult/laugh at him (yet another glaring difference). The final judgement of history on the current President status is yet to be written, and I hope he turns things around for the better. But forgive me if I have my doubts… again as a history major and the son of a girl born and raised in Nuremberg, Germany (1933), I heed the lessons it can teach us.
both Spanish-American and Vietnam wars were manifestations of United States imperialism, and neither were virtuous. Roosevelt saw an opportunity for self-aggrandizement. Trump saw needless waste of life.
The people of Greenland will decide their future, but chances are they will become a US protectorate because most of them want to. And if Jimmy Carter hadn't given away the Panama Canal in one of his most boneheaded mistakes we wouldn't have the issues we have today with transit fees. Trump ends up cleaning up after DEM Administration foul-ups. As for Canada, Trump is just posturing ahead of trade/border control negotiations with them-that and he can't stand Justin Trudeau. In that, he has a lot in common with many Canadians.
I appreciate your honesty and the fact that you will say what you believe. The people who have unsubscribed because you said positive things about president Trump. Hey that's their choice. It's a free country and you have just as much right as anybody else to exercise your free speech. I myself will stay subscribed to your channel. Thank you sir.
1 - I don't care what people say. I'm staying here Sam. I'll never unsubscribe. 2 - This war is beyond senseless and needs to end. Ge eratipns of lives are at risk. Every [kaput word] is a blow to several generations that person could have gone on to have. That's why it isn't simply one man. It is many over time for each loss. 3 - I, too, pray for peace from above. 4 - Absolutely beautiful terrain! 5 - Hard to get people to realize that Ukraine is a soverign country. people today don't understand sovereignty at all. That means what it does inside its own borders is its own choice. Period! Much like how anyone with a YT channel has their own say on it. And when a certain leader says that country shouldn't even exist despite what the prior leaders and entire administrations agreed to and supported (Independent Ukraine) and signed international laws and statements to than they will never see the value or a truce. They already have broken that, so they will break more. They already broke the Budapest Memorandum and a few others. They will never see peace and have said they don't want it. 6 - The war is really about oil and mineral rights that were found since 2010 in Ukraine. In fact, 3 days to a week before they attacked, they started new mobile oil platforms. Oil galore off Crimea and Odessa. 7 - I find it silly that if a person has money, people hate that person automatically. That is people's pride and greed at work. At least some make that money not off insider trading and preknowledge and in the field of business. At least they can say they earned it. 8 - If only Ukraine as a whole had the mindset to all defend rather than flee and could own guns, it would be a very different war. That is why Switzerland hasn't been attacked for the main major reason. We should cherish and protect our rights, or we will lose all we have, not just our rights. 9 - Teddy Roosevelt was a favorite of mine, too. He was a favorite of abother I like as well, Tom Selleck. 10 - Thank you for the history. I love history!
i know this is a bit off-topic, but i couldn’t keep this to myself. i kept seeing people rave about Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane in the comments of so many videos, and even some of my friends mentioned it. i decided to give it a shot, and it’s been a game-changer. i’m finally seeing things fall into place-career, relationships, even my confidence. if you’ve been stuck, this book might be exactly what you need
I just wish Trump was a carbon copy of Teddy Roosevelt especially on the issue of immigration and demographics. But I really want him to end the war taking place on my ancestral homelands, Ukraine and Russia.
AND tell him "that can ONLY be done by dropping the teenage girl cyberbully cancel-culture approach to Russia, and deal with THEM, not just with cute, furry, corrupt, cuddly underdog Ukraine."
I have great interest in Russian military rifles. Saw the header, it's nothing more than click bait! And his commentary was contrived and idiotic. Will leave the channel...I don't care for man-love anyway.
Big Sam, Please don’t push your political beliefs on others who may disagree. You have great content about the rifle that we all love and have interest in. Only God can solve the problems of this world in his way and not man’s way.
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeathand Gods way of solving the worlds problems is using people that He puts in power. Pretty obvious that God put Trump in power. Everything is political, there’s nothing wrong with this guy pushing politics.
not related to the video at all, but i had to tell y’all about this. i kept seeing Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane mentioned everywhere-in youtube comments, even random convos with friends. i caved and read it, and wow. within two weeks, i started seeing my dream life come together. it’s not about wishful thinking-it actually teaches you how to align your energy to make it happen.
this has nothing to do with the video, but i’ve been seeing comments about this book for weeks, and i couldn’t ignore it anymore. Vibrations of Manifestation by alex lane was hard to track down, but it’s honestly the best decision i’ve made. it’s crazy how fast things changed for me-two weeks after reading it, i landed the opportunity i’d been waiting for and started feeling more in control of my life. i just had to tell someone about it
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath A lot of big government ideas, such as limiting state rights, not just domestically but at a global scale, the guy loved sticking his nose in other countries affairs. Think George W. Bush when it comes to foreign policy but Joe Biden when it comes to big federal government. Also, the racial superiority complex of Adolf Hitler, (no joke. the guy hated blacks, native Americans and anyone who wasn't white, as in 100% European white. He hated Cubans, Puerto Ricans, Mexicans because of their mixed heritage , even the blacks and native Americans fighting alongside him. He made up false reports of cowardice against anyone not Anglo white, these were later disproven. Just a bigot who liked to hunt really big animals to combat his small man syndrome. Not sure why Americans are so proud of this guy, literally American Adolf Hitler. Good presidents are few and far between. I remember even ISIS had to admit that George Washington and Abraham Lincoln were honorable Americans. Teddy? not even close.
@@TheREALLibertyOrDeath not sure why my comment got deleted but yeah i will try to make it more pleasing to youtube's virgin eyes. Teddy had the big government mentality of Joe Biden and the foreign policy of George W Bush. lots of racism and white supremacist ideas like a certain German leader of the 30's and 40's. lots of hunting trips to hunt big animals to make up for small man syndrome.

they are all masons.. dont hold any of em up. they all have vested interests.

Buccee's!
But first he has to invade Greenland, annex Canada, and take back the Panama Canal. Nice gun though.
The people of Greenland will decide their future, but chances are they will become a US protectorate because most of them want to.

In that, he has a lot in common with many Canadians.
The whole point of that was a strategy to get all the open borders people to publicly come out and support national sovereignty. And it worked.
Thanks for an excellent video.
I can't tell if this is a green screen or not.
🤣 “NOT!”
It is not at all.
Maybe the Russians and Ukrainians can agree on their love of the mosin and stop fighting.
Political pawns, nothing more.

Great video well said and man that is an interesting rifle real piece of history there.

Wonderful breakdown, history lessons, and comparisons. Wrapped up with a Bible verse. Great video!
Great video! Great content! Love the history and love that Mosin. Thanks for the education!
Great video Sam! You are totally on target!
Thanks Sam, great lesson and great rifle.
Let's get it done! Send this post to the White House! PRESIDENT TRUMP END THIS WAR!
