HOW THE D-DAY INVASION WOULD BE REPORTED BY TODAY'S PRESS
NORMANDY, FRANCE (June 6, 1944) Three hundred French civilians were killed and thousands more were wounded today in the first hours of America's invasion of continental Europe. Casualties were heaviest among women and children. Most of the French casualties were the result of artillery fire from American ships attempting to knock out German fortifications prior to the landing of hundreds of thousands of U.S. troops.
Reports from a makeshift hospital in the French town of St. Mere Eglise said the carnage was far worse than the French had anticipated, and that reaction against the American invasion was running high. "We are dying for no reason," said a Frenchman speaking on condition of anonymity. "Americans can't even shoot straight. I never thought I'd say this, but life was better under Adolph Hitler."
The invasion also caused severe environmental damage. American troops, tanks, trucks and machinery destroyed miles of pristine shoreline and thousands of acres of ecologically sensitive wetlands. It was believed that the habitat of the spineless French crab was completely wiped out, thus threatening the species with extinction.
A representative of Greenpeace said his organization, which had tried to stall the invasion for over a year, was appalled at the destruction, but not surprised. "This is just another example of how the military destroys the environment without a second thought," said Christine Moanmore. "And it's all about corporate greed."
Contacted at his Manhattan condo, a member of the French government-in-exile who abandoned Paris when Hitler invaded, said the invasion was based solely on American financial interests. "Everyone knows that President Roosevelt has ties to 'big beer'," said Pierre Le Wimp. "Once the German beer industry is conquered, Roosevelt's beer cronies will control the world market and make a fortune."
Administration supporters said America's aggressive actions were based in part on the assertions of controversial scientist Albert Einstein, who sent a letter to Roosevelt speculating that the Germans were developing a secret weapon -- a so-called "atomic bomb." Hitler has denied having such a weapon and international inspectors were unable to locate such weapons even after spending two long weekends in Germany.
Shortly after the invasion began, reports surfaced that German prisoners had been abused by American soldiers. Mistreatment of Jews by Germans at their so-called "concentration camps" has been rumored, but so far this remains unproven.
Several thousand Americans died during the first hours of the invasion, and French officials are concerned that the uncollected corpses will pose a public-health risk. "The Americans should have planned for this in advance," they said. "It's their mess, and we don't intend to help clean it up."
The invasion is blamed on Roosevelt's hawkish military advisers and the influence of British Prime Minister Churchill, who have repeated ignored calls for a negotiated settlement to end the war and who have reportedly rejected peace overtures from Germany through several neutral parties. Instead, the Roosevelt administration and its allies have chosen to insist on maintaining their extreme policy of demanding unconditional surrender.
There have been notable voices of opposition from sports figures and celebrities decrying the horrific violence and saying that this is not who we are.

What? No report about the involvement of the LGBT community, and Minorities? Women?

That would be on the editorial page, and would decry the lack of diversity when it was overwhelmingly toxic white masculine males exercising their white privilege to save the world from fascism.

We're just a bunch of angry old, White men (and women) aren't we? :)

Compare today's pussified young generation, too delicate to play dodgeball, too fragile to handle listening to a conservative speaker, terrified of global warming yet completely oblivious to the dangers of Islamofascism (they don't remember 9/11), compare them to the young men and women of WWII, and The Great War, generations willing to give their lives to keep their country safe and to defend the innocent abroad.

If the current generation of snowflakes ever faced up to the hatred our enemies have for America, they’d first cry, then wet themselves.

I have a friend and colleague in another office that I converse with occasionally. Last Thursday she was talking about the meltdown her son was having about a girlfriend breakup and the stresses of graduating from high school and going to college in a few months.
I told her that her son should suck it up, because 75 years ago today 18-year olds were jumping out of landing craft into a hail of machine gun fire and men were dying all around them as they scrambled up the beach.
The conversation ended quickly.

Kind of along these lines, too lazy to start a thread, was yesterdays World Cup Soccer match between the USA and Thailand.
The USA women thumped Thailand 13-0. The wrap up afterwards had a panel of two women and two men. The two men had differing opinions on the scoring. One of them stated that the women should have "pulled their punches" while the other said, "hell no, they did what they're supposed to do". I figure man #1 was a Liberal while man #2 was much more of a conservative.

And the anti American LGBT activist, ugly, angry Lesbian "teammate" Megan Rapinoe kneeled during the National Anthem in a foreign country protesting Trump and the U.S. She is on the U.S. TEAM!
Megan Rapinoe, co-captain for the United States Women’s national soccer team, says that she will “probably never sing the national anthem again.”
The openly gay soccer star told Yahoo Sports that she will no longer participate in patriotic displays as a protest of the Trump administration. Rapinoe added that because she is “as talented as I am” she can use her platform as an “f-you” to those she opposes.
“I’ll probably never put my hand over my heart. I’ll probably never sing the national anthem again,” Rapinoe said adding she views herself as “a walking protest when it comes to the Trump administration,” because of “everything I stand for.

Yet another “it’s all about me” athletes. The word “team” means nothing to them.
Can anyone tell me what Trump has done that has lgbt people so up in arms? Besides stopping clearly mentally unstable trans people from serving in the armed forces, what else has he done?

Nothing.
But the narrative is he hates blacks, jews, latinos, muslims, gay, trans, etc. Never mind there is zero, none, nada evidence to support any of that. It's the narrative, projected by the alt left progressives and promoted by the extremist MSM.
