In 1944, Japan faced a new kind of war: the Boeing B-29 Superfortress. Flying at 30,000 ft, doing 350 mph, bristling with remote-controlled .50 cal guns, and carrying 20,000 lbs of bombs, it was a fortress in the sky. And now hundreds were coming for Japan’s cities. 1/5
@Lks9_Military@AveMegumin Seu comentário poderia ter algum senso caso eles houvessem violado apenas mulheres alemães, mas eles fizeram o mesmo na Ucrânia, Polônia e Bielorrusia. Eram animais, que estejam todos no inferno, os que comentaram crimes.
@newworlder_ Não, esse é o túmulo do soldado desconhecido, um memorial aos soldados mortos que não puderam ser registrados por nome. Há vários ao redor do mundo. A tradição começou na primeira guerra.
@amaral00 Homens com o ego ferido descontando suas frustrações em mulheres. Patético. E hipócrita, os franceses e outras tropas aliadas também dormiram com alemãs quando entraram no país, mas a régua só é medida para um lado.

There was a Syrian archeologist named Dr. Khaled al Assad who helped evacuate his city’s museum prior to ISIS taking over. Khaled was imprisoned by the Islamic State and tortured in an attempt to discover the location of the ancient artifacts, but he never broke.
Khaled is a true hero of humanity; he sacrificed his life to protect our collective history while “eco activists” seek to destroy it.
Dr. Khaled al Assad was publicly beheaded by the Islamic State on August 18 2015, aged 83.
May his memory be an eternal blessing.
In the middle of WW1 portuguese soldiers turned to "The Christ of the Trenches" in prayer.
And when they were forced to leave they risked their lives to bring Christ back home with them.
On April 9, 1918, the Portuguese Expeditionary Corps suffered a devastating blow in the trenches of France.
Modern believers often treat faith as a shield against hardship. The moment we face discomfort or anxiety, we demand to know why God isn't making our lives easier. We want a religion of convenience.
The 56,500 Portuguese soldiers sent to the miserable, freezing trenches of World War I knew better. At a crossroads near Neuve-Chapelle, they found a crucifix. Amidst extreme conditions and massive loss of life, that simple monument became their singular beacon of hope and devotion.
When the German Spring Offensive hit on April 9, the devastation was absolute. Thousands of Portuguese troops were killed, wounded, missing, or captured. The surrounding area was reduced to smoking ruins.
But the cross was still standing.
Christ had lost a hand, both feet, parts of His legs, and had a bullet hole straight through the chest—but the statue remained upright in the rubble. Instead of retreating from the ongoing German artillery fire, Portuguese soldiers risked their lives to rescue it. Driven by profound faith, they carried the mutilated "Christ of the Trenches" through the mud and the dangers of the offensive to keep it safe.
Today, that same shattered Christ stands in the Chapter House of the Batalha Monastery, keeping eternal watch over the Tomb of the Unknown Soldier.
Faith does not promise to keep you out of the crossfire. It is the strength to carry the cross through the ruins. Hold the line.
@hoje_no Que as baixas de civis sejam mínimas. O líbano, cuja a capital já foi conhecida como a Paris do Levante, seja um dia livre das forças que sequestraram a nação.
