Seems to me our "science" channels are full of junk science and "history" channels are full of fables. Don't they have SOME responsibility to the truth? This sucker is on PBS, financed by dollars extracted from our pockets by force. We have no voice in what manner of nonsense they broadcast but are compelled to pay for it.

You are 100% right IMO. History channel is the worst culprit. But these "what if shows" have gotta go. Now even NatGeo is doing them

. But speaking of tax dollars wasted, I get more worked up over some of the art shows PBS has than the history ones. Example: Oregon art beat; exploring art made out of recycled garbage, or mud, or blah, blah, blah

.
Regarding changing the war, if they totally destroyed the Panama Canal, all it would have done is delay supplies, ship movements. It's like being down by 35 points in football with 30 seconds to go, and you run a trick play.
