The Japanese Kamikaze pilots were from WW2 not WW1. The Japanese were part of the Allies in WW1.

The machine gun was actually invented prior to WW1 but used widely in WW1. Tidbits-- the Germans used Maxim machine guns made under license (they even paid that British firm royalty fees DURING the war!). The French made light machine guns were handmade to the extent that the parts were so individualized to the particular gun that the parts could not be interchanged between guns, even though they were of the same model! (History Channel)

Tanks-- introduced by the British in the Battle of Cambrai. Called tanks bc the British told ppl that they were water tanks. The first tank with a turret was the Renault 17.

Submarines--goes back to the American Civil War but first used on a large scale by Germany in WW1.

Airplanes-- first used as a reconnaissance vehicle, later developed into fighters and bombers.

The tank (created primarily by the British), the long-range bomber (German Zeppelin dirigibles and Gotha bombers; Russia — the Sikorsky four-mtor transport that was converted into a bomber (same Sikorsky who designed helicopters in the U.S. in World War II; and Britain (Handley-Page 4 motors that came in at the end of the war and would have been used extensively in the strategic campaigns planned by Trenchard and U.S. General Billy Mitchell for 1919); effectuve fighter aircraft (first developed for the Germans by the Dutch designer, Anthony Fokker, who invented the cam-operated forward firiing synchronized machine gun mounted to fire through the propeller without splintering it; extensive use of trucks and motor vehicles as vehicles to move troops and supplies quickly though most logistics was handled by horse-drawn transport — motor vehicles were first used to save the situation by moving troops and supplies from Paris to the front at the first Battle of the Marne, 1914, which broke the momentum of the successful German offensive.

FOR WWI, the following were created and used by the US, Germany, and France: tanks, poison gas, airplanes, and submarines. By WWII< each was refined for more effective use, although poison gas was not used much in that war.

The Germans were the first to deploy and use Poison gas in the battle of Ypres in 1915.

But the British were the first to use tanks.

I forget who but the flamethrower was also developed as was aerial bombing.

God isn't keen that ANY could desire to perish 2 Peter 3:9 God did use some in a detrimental thank you to instruct His glory yet not because of fact He did not have plans for them later. examine Revelation relating to the resurrection of all who ever lived and see how the Bible talks some first resurrection and 2d resurrection, a firstfruit harvest and a great harvest. God isn't attempting to maintain the international now! he's permitting mankind to place in writing a historic past of sin and all its outcomes so as that no person will ever ask your self in the process all eternity if there is any wrong thank you to stay yet God's way. His arms are off this international different than for infrequent interventions. II Cor. 4:4 says devil is the god of this international because of fact God has allowed him to 'help' guy see precisely the place sin leads--as quickly as perpetually. Who says God knows what you or I are going to do? He informed Abraham "Now i be attentive to..." whilst Abraham obeyed God interior the main complicated of situations. Gen 22:12 That tells me He did not be attentive to till now that. additionally it says Christ 'found out'--how is that available if He replaced into God (which He replaced into)? Hebrews 5:8 God needs all to be saved yet in time, not now! There are billions of persons who've died and could die by no potential even listening to of Him, how ought to He carry them to blame for their strikes? And if there is this way of element as fact, then all those diverse non secular factions can't be perfect, can they? God isn't much less logical or worrying than you're! he isn't by using with this international or those that have died--not by potential of an prolonged shot!
