> [@DrDeth](#): > > Actually, you are incorrect. I proved both you and Tokyo Bayer wrong by cites. You are, as always, delusional. I wasn’t even here on the boards when your fabrication about Douggy Mac and your dad was exposed. Hell, you hadn’t even shared that particular delusion with the class when I took a break from posting here. Kudos to you on proving my non-existent statements wrong though! > [@DrDeth](#): > > > [@TokyoBayer](#): > > > > Yeah, the level of misinformation is stunning, and tiring, but what do you expect from someone whose primary source of information about WWII was a Hasbro [board game](https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Axis_%26_Allies) for players age 8 and up? > > I never cited that board game. [Never cited Axis&Allies as the fount of your immense knowledge about WWII, eh?](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/question-regarding-the-attack-on-pearl-harbor/666628/150) > [@Question regarding the attack on Pearl Harbor](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/question-regarding-the-attack-on-pearl-harbor/666628/150): > > > [@Question regarding the attack on Pearl Harbor](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/question-regarding-the-attack-on-pearl-harbor/666628/146): > > > > Based upon your experience playing wargames. The reality is that Japan had to secure sources of oil and rubber or its economy was going to collapse. Attacking Siberia would gain nothing for Japan. Before you say ‘but the Axis would have won the war’ your basic assumptions are based on fiction.

Wargames show what could have been. > > Sure, the Japanese didn’t- which makes it fiction. So? :dubious:We’re discussing what _could have happened,_ Alt-hist. The funny part is I hadn’t even considered that you meant _Axis&Allies_ when you said ‘wargames’ until you outed yourself. Nobody with an IQ above room temperature would have said something that stupid. My apologies for overestimating your IQ. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/i-pit-drdeth/933971)._
