Provocations are present daily throughout the world, look at 'us' right now with Russia and NATO or with the cartels or our own borders.
The Maddox had to evade a torpedo fired at it in international waters by the patrol boats, that 'was' a mortal threat and an act of war wasn't it? The patrol boats knew those were warning shots, or would if they followed international maritime laws.
There are maritime rulez and the patrol boats were warned off using guard frequencies, they kept bearing on Maddox in an attack profile and did continue coming after warning shots were lawfully fired. Yeah they returned fire in the sense that a warning shot had been fired by Maddox but the warning shot was preceded by lawful instructions on all the applicable maritime and emergency frequencies.
We can drain a lot of beer deciding who provoked who the mostest or firstest or bestest but the attack by the patrol boats did constitute an act of war. The claimed second attack doesn't matter at that point.
The problem is that we cannot trust the record that has been submitted. The story goes that the gun boats fired a torpedo against US Navy Destroyers that missed after a warning shot was fired. The events recorded in official records are always questionable. We have a long history of instigating war after "provocation" that makes us look innocent. The events leading up to WWI was the sinking of the Lusitania. As history has shown, we lied and stated that the cruise ship was not carrying contraband that was prohibited by the lawful embargo that was established by Germany. This was utilized by the US government as provocation for the declaration of war. WWII was initiated after provocation of the Japanese to incite them to attack the US Naval forces in the Pacific. Radar tower as well as civilian fishing boats on the Hawaiian islands detected and reported the incoming attack aircraft and no notice was given to Pearl Harbor, the warnings were conveyed to DC, but no warnings were given to the Naval forces in Perl Harbor. The only ships in port were obsolete WWI era warships. The modern warships were all conveniently performing an exercise in the North Pacific. Of course, all these events were manipulated by the US government to galvanize a response by the American people to join the respective wars. I am not saying that we should not have gotten involved in those wars, but I find it distasteful that propaganda and manipulation was used to convince the American people to go and fight and die without being truthfully informed.
We cannot trust much of it, true. This is why one must research matters themselves and from many perspectives.
Yeah we should not have joined WWI, I'm not sure who knew the Lusitania was carrying war material but that was proven some years ago when the wreck was examined. It is 'possible' that it was done secretly and our government did not know of it at the time..... we still don't know that part, we only know that she DID indeed carry munitions. Not sure who deceived us is what I'm saying, but we were deceived.
FDR tried several times to lure the Japanese into attacking us, these efforts are well documented and not arguable, they habbened. The Japanese wouldn't take the bait because they had been planning for months to attack all across the Pacific and were not going to jeopardize that over FDR's transparent schemes.
FDR was a lying bar steward, yes he was, and I would say many of his acts border on treason and tyranny. He had his agenda and it wasn't necessarily based on the Constitution.
The Lusitania was actually carrying munitions from the US to England. We knew it, the British knew and so did the Germans. The only people that didn't know it was the American citizenry. It served a suitable purpose for the government of the US to deny it and claim it was grounds for the US to declare war on Germany.
