Status: offline 		Head a few minutes of this guy on the radio last night:

http://www.douglasdietrich.com/topics.html

In the few minutes I listened, he claimed that the Japanese had a recon plane capable of flying from Tokyo to New York and that they were regularly flying recon over the US from 1943 on and they built hundreds of these recon planes. He also claimed the balloon bombs started thousands of fires and that US smoke jumpers were on the go full time fighting the fires started by these bombs.

Then he claimed that the fighter version of the Peggy (which he called the Ki-67, but was actually the Ki-109), was such a successful interceptor that they shot down over 5000 American airmen in B-29s (which would have been around 500 B-29s). He claimed the reason the Enola Gay and Bock's Car were not shot down was because the Japanese knew these planes were carrying nukes, but they didn't want to suffer damage from an EMP when the bombs went off as the planes went down in flames.

I haven't heard anybody get history sooo wrong in quite a while. I wanted to yell at the radio, but restrained myself.

That guy´s got other issues than being historically incorrect.

But as usual there will be enough dumbheads around to buy his "work" so he is able to make a decent living.

"This page is provided for programming directors and radio / TV talk show hosts. Mr. Dietrich's research into military and global social/political analysis is extensive -- and covers a vast variety of topics. Be assured, if you would like to discuss ANY TOPIC regarding the U.S. Military past and present, or politics as it relates to current global crises, Douglas WILL ENTRALL your audience with his knowledge. "

"Entrall"? Does he mean 'enthrall' or 'entrail'? Somehow, I doubt the former, but could see the association with rotten guts.

"ANY topic" concerning the U.S. military past or present? Wow! I know some, others that I know are much more read, but I've never known anyone that knew EVERYTHING about the U.S. military past or present. He must be really smart. He knows EVERYTHING about politics too? Impossible! Why, he would have to be some uber-genius, wouldn't he? Alright, I'll bite-I'm entralled.

Dude, if you're going to ALL CAPS your own self-aggrandizing nonsense, at least spell it right, would ya?

Interesting. Read a little of the highlights on his page. Interesting factoid is that Chennault 'did' in fact prepose active engagement prior to Dec 7 against the Japanese airforce in China, including possible fire raids on Japan from China. However according to Daniel Ford's work on the FT's.......neither Marshall nor anyone else in the upper military hierarchy took his preposals seriously though it was said by Frank Mcintyre that FDR had a secret fondness for the man. I'm betting the "document" this person is referring to is Chennault's preposal. If my theory is correct, it shows how the 'truth' and 'facts' are always ultimately subject to a person's individual interpretation. Maybe Dietrich truely sees this as a smoking gun. I don't based on my own mussings. Ultimately this website highlights the lesson that one should take everything, esp whats on the Internet with a grain of salt....and if interested in such things, do one's own digging.

They set my teeth on edge too, but I'm finding this thread hilarious.

Anyone who claims to know "everything" about a subject probably doesn't know much at all. I have people in my life who think I know everything there is to know about World War II. If I had any such illusions, 15 minutes on this forum would dispel those notions.

PaxMondo: I only restrained myself because it was late and my SO was headed for bed and I was headed that direction shortly. I don't think she would have appreciated the adrenalin rush that comes from your SO screaming at the top of his lungs on the other end of the house when you're trying to settle in for the night. It was a close thing though...

Forget about the uber Bettys! This is what is needed:

"On August 9, 1945, the Sacred Crane Task Force of Imperial Japanese Superdirigibles penetrated American airspace as easily as it had been violated during The Battle of Los Angeles."

Imperial Japanese Superdirigibles! Of the Sacred Crane Task Force no less! No more KB! It's SC now!

This was on the page of "Past Events" Last month's "Quest 4 Truth" in which he talked about the Shōwa Plague-Paradigm Paradox! I'm surprised that he hasn't talked about the Germans bombing Pearl Harbor.

I personal y ask myself which is more sad. A person who writes such stuff or a person who believes this.

An other expample is Erich von Däniken a Swiss author (nothing to do with military).

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Erich_von_D%C3%A4niken

He sold more than 60 million copies worldwide with historical nonsense.
