Error on Minute 3:22 :
Leading the drone mission was 29-year-old Joe Kennedy Jr, a man groomed from birth to be the first Catholic President of the United States.
– Joe Kennedy Jr was a naval aviator/bomber pilot, and died on August 12th, 1944. His brother John Fitzgerald Kennedy, also participated on WWII, and was the one to become a President of the United States.

What is never mentioned in any of these stories about the "costs" of war is the secret, hidden Stupendously rich and powerful group of international bankers who are at the center of it all and collecting quite handsome fees and interests from ALL SIDES of the war efforts. It's as though we are supposed to imagine that all the equipment and armaments for a war effort are somehow FREE! The very small International (they have no allegiance to any country) group of unbelievably rich and hence powerful bankers, who fund all of these enterprises, are sitting comfortably on their well protected yachts, drinking a toast to each and every convoy of ships that sailed to England, regardless of whether they arrived or were sunk on the way, are reveling in the incredible PROFITS & POWER that each convey would bring to those GREEDY International bankers! Meanwhile those suffering and dying for "freedom, honor, liberty, safety, human rights, and a better world", had no idea who was profiting so well from it all or even why and they still don't. What a sick joke! A very few folks benefit very greatly from every possible angle while a huge array of IGNORANT folks do all the fighting, dying and PAYING! OH well….. so it's always been and always will be – for some of us! 🙂
