  You think you know things, then you come across something that makes you do a double-take. How does no one know this? How was it kept so qiet?

  For instance, how many were killed in the Jones-town massacre? 900+ right? Many drinking poisoned cool-aid.

  Now what if I told you that the US Justice Department poisoned 10x that number of people? Look it up - in the 1920's they poisoned alcohol which killed over 10,000 citizens!

  Another "fun fact" is that Japan actually managed to bomb the US mainland during WWII. They sent bombs in balloons via the jet-stream and caused almost no damage whatsoever. But they landed bombs.
  

  Now, points if you know about who dropped hydrogen bombs on the US mainland?

  Well, it was the US. They did it to themselves but the bombs were close to detonating (3 of 4 steps completed) and one couldn't be recovered, so it's still there, weapons-grade uranium in a field in North Carolina

  The fact that both of these events is so poorly known likely has something todo with it being done by the government itself.

  i remember attending one day of the loyalty assembly a few years back just because i heard it was just messed up. It was literally the most cultist thing i have ever been a part of. It was almost laughable.

  An elder started taking to me at Home depot a few weeks later and asked me what i thought ? I was like I was surprised it didn’t end in a mass suicide. He was not impressed with that comment .

  Too funny.

  Not entirely true. They killed a housewife and five kids. I think I read somewhere they were church members going on a picnic. Link below has some details about it.

  I'm a history buff, military history is a focus for me. My family will tell you I'm a fountain of useless trivia.
  

  Edited to add, we also dropped an H-Bomb on Spain.

  The Americans and Japanese had some battles in the Aleutian Islands off Alaska during WW2, technically WW2 was fought on US soil.

  The Canadians and Americans had a weird fog battle in the Aleutians both thinking they were the Japanese.

  Oh wow, I didn't know that - what I read was that it just caused some fires in rural areas. Thanks for filling me in!

  Another fascinating fact is that there was a battle in WWII where the Germans fought alongside the US against the SS who were going to execute prisoners.

  Errrr...I wouldn't say they are poorly known.Everyone and their brother knows about the Goldsboro crash. Also the Tybee Island incedent. Tybee was a childhood vacation spot. Everyone knows there is a nuke in Wassaw Sound at Tybee Island. I've known it since I was a kid. It's not some sort of big secret.
