Te kuhunga o Amerika ki te riri
Nō te totohutanga o ngā kaipuke 10 o Amerika e Tiamani, ka ākina te kāwanatanga ki te ngaki utu.
I te 1 o Pepuere, 10 ngā kaipuke rawa o Amerika i turakina e ngā waka-U o Tiamani. I ngā wiki tata, ahakoa ngā tino whakatūpato a te iwi o Amerika, ka hoki anō ngā Tiamana ki te patu i ngā kaipuke mā ō rātou wakataua whakatakere.
Kua tino matakawa a Amerika whānui ki a Tiamani. Nā te kaha o ngā tono a tōna iwi, ka whakapuakina e Amerika tō rātou riri ki a Tiamani i te 6 o Āperira.
Kotahi atu te Ope Kātua o Amerika ki te hoariri. Ko te tuatoru tēnei o ngā ope kātua kaha o te ao, whai muri mai i a Piritana me Tiamani anake. Ka whai te ope kātua o Amerika i ngā waka-U o Tiamani ki te Moana o Aranatiki, ka tautoko hoki te Ope Kātua o Piritana.
Engari he iti noa te Ope Taua o Amerika. Kāore i a rātou ngā rākau tika o te riri hei kawe atu ki te Pae o te Uru, arā, he pū hou, he waka rererangi, he waka taua whenua. Ka tau atu ngā hōia tuatahi o te American Expeditionary Force (AEF) ki Wīwī i te marama o Hune. Engari, ka pāpōuri ō rātou hoa whawhai, i te mea, ka kotahi tau rā anō rātou e whakangungu ana kia rite rātou mō te pae o te riri.
