Glede zgodb kako natu zmanjkuje vsega... očitno noben rusofil ne pomisli kakšne nore industrijske in orožarske zmogljivosti stojijo Rusom na drugi strani in kaj bo, če bo potreba, da to zares zalaufa. To seveda v primeru, če bi res česa zmanjkovalo. O takih stvareh se namreč ne govori na glas, če pa se govori je to predvsem namenjeno zavajanju nasprotnika.
Malo me vseskupaj spominja na japonski napad na Pearl Harbor... japonsko vodstvo je bilo čisto in popolnoma noro. Razmišljanje čisto na nivoju ruskega danes.
Admiral Yamamoto, ki je vodil napad na Pearl Harbor je, preden so dejansko napadli, izjavil tole:
When asked by Prime Minister
Fumimaro Konoe in mid-1941 about the outcome of a possible war with the United States, Yamamoto made a well-known and prophetic statement: If ordered to fight, he said, "I shall run wild considerably for the first six months or a year, but I have utterly no confidence for the second and third years."
[20] His prediction would be validated, as Japan easily conquered territories and islands in Asia and the Pacific for the first six months of the war, before suffering a major defeat at the
Battle of Midway on June 4–7, 1942, which ultimately tilted the balance of power in the Pacific towards the United States.
Pa tudi tista njegova, da se boji, da so z napadom samo zbudili spečega velikana je legendarna.
