1778 – In the Hawaiian Islands, Captain James Cook and company become the first Europeans to visit Maui.

1789 – A national Thanksgiving Day is observed in the United States as recommended by President George Washington and approved by Congress. Pajama Boy gets bitch-slapped trying to explain how Hillary was robbed of the election.

1863 – United States President Abraham Lincoln proclaims November 26 as a national Thanksgiving Day, to be celebrated annually on the final Thursday of November. Following the Franksgiving controversy from 1939 to 1941, it has been observed on the fourth Thursday in 1942 and subsequent years.

1922 – Howard Carter and Lord Carnarvon become the first people to enter the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun in over 3000 years. Their faces melt off.

1939 – Shelling of Mainila: The Soviet Army orchestrates the incident which is used to justify the start of the Winter War with Finland four days later. Tiny, out-numbered, under-armed, gutsy Finland gives the Russians more fight than they bargained for.

1942 – Holocaust: Shoah: 572 Norwegian Jews are deported to Auschwitz on the cargo vessel Donau. This was the first step on the journey to the death camp Auschwitz. Altogether the total number of Jews deported from Norway was 767, 25 of the deported survived. If the Trump Administration were Nazis as the Left has screamed since his election, THIS is what you’d have seen. The Left couldn’t FIND a Nazi if one bit them on the ass.

1943 – World War II: HMT Rohna sunk by the Luftwaffe using a radio-guided bomb in an air attack in the Mediterranean north of Béjaïa, Algeria. Of the 1,138 men lost, 1,015 were American. The attack constitutes the largest loss of U.S. troops at sea in a single incident.

1944 – World War II: A German V-2 rocket hits a Woolworth’s shop on New Cross High Street, United Kingdom, killing 168 shoppers. If one would’ve hit a Wal-Mart on any Black Friday, it would’ve raised the state’s average IQ a dozen points.

1950 – Korean War: Troops from the People’s Republic of China launch a massive counterattack in North Korea against South Korean and United Nations forces (Battle of the Ch’ongch’on River and Battle of Chosin Reservoir), ending any hopes of a quick end to the conflict.

2000 – George W. Bush is certified the winner of Florida’s electoral votes by Katherine Harris, going on to win the United States presidential election, despite losing in the national popular vote as reported by the mainstream media. When you factor out the dead votes ( a heavily dimmocrat-leaning block) and the ‘extra’ votes cast by ‘community activists’, Bush won the popular vote as well, just like this last time.

2008 – The first shots of many attacks on Mumbai, India are fired. These ten coordinated attacks by Pakistan-based terrorists kill 164 and injure more than 300 people in Mumbai. Included among the victims are members of Mumbai’s tiny Jewish community, specifically targeted, lest you mistakenly think terrorists have forgotten the Jews.
