Say hello to... racial stereotyping!

[Toecutter]

When I mean "innocent women and children", I mean the Filippinos that were run off of cliffs and shot in mass graves by the Japs. Pearl Harbor was obviously a military target. It was because the Japs wouldn't stop until we completely obliterated them, that we had to attack innocent women and children. The loss of a few thousand lives was worth preserving millions, which includes the Japanese and Russians who would've died if we had to storm the mainland.

Normandy worked because Hitler was convinced Patton would lead the invasion of France at Calais. It was the fact Patton was a military genius, that the allies would overlook the slapping incident, and put him in charge of the European front. Of course, Eisenhower let that snobby pig Monty hog all the glory, which is why D-Day went in our favor. Do you think the same trick would work twice in the same war?

Besides, we gave the Japanese plenty of warning. We told them we were going to unleash a new doomsday weapon if they didn't comply. They laughed. So, we dropped one, the Japs cried, and we laughed! Then, they wanted to dictate terms. So, we dropped another one. They finally buckled.

You want to say we didn't have the right to nuke the Japs? Go talk to a couple of WWII vets, and see what they think of your little proposal about the "moral superiority" of the Japanese.

As for your views about the politically correct evolution of man, you're obviously not up to speed on the newest research that's proving old theories true again. I've taken an anthropology class, and the material is so far slanted to the left, you'd think Rainbow Push produced the textbooks. There are even history programs on the Discovery Channel now that compare the medieval infantry tactics of Western Europe with those of the Arabs. They constantly brag about how great the Arab archers' technique was (using the thumb and index finger to draw the arrow), rather than the European technique of using two fingers. It was proven on the show the arrow's velocity and trajectory were greatly hindered by the Arab technique, but the narrator just kept going on and on about how much of an "improvement" it was over the European technique.

That's very white of you.

Boy you can just FEEL the incredible ignorance eminating off this guys post!

When I mean "innocent women and children", I mean the Filippinos that were run off of cliffs and shot in mass graves by the Japs.

...so the Japanese got out of their planes mid air, took a stroll across the island to go mass murder some Filippinos that had...what to do with ANYTHING? Yeesh, come on Sunshine, if yer gonna make up history at least try and make it sound plausible fer fuck sake. The Japanese were far more interested in sinking those great big war ships in the harbor and destroying their air fields, they didn't give fuck all about no native Filippinos, Stupid.

Pearl Harbor was obviously a military target. It was because the Japs

Wow..."Japs"...heh...*shakes head*

Are the words "nigger" and "kike" also in your vocabulary?

wouldn't stop until we completely obliterated them, that we had to attack innocent women and children.

So...they wouldn't give up...and that was reason to commit genocide? Hrmm...you know I think that was the same mentality that Hitler had...I'm just sayin... o_O

The loss of a few thousand lives was worth preserving millions, which includes the Japanese and Russians who would've died if we had to storm the mainland.

Cause just leaving them the fuck alone on their lil island, boy we just COULDN'T do that, now could we?

And "a few thousand"?!

Just in Nagasaki, we obliterated an entire city of 220,000 with a fireball heated to nearly 14,000 degrees Fahrenheit in less than three seconds. 74,000 died instantly in the blast, thousands more died in the days, weeks, months and years that followed, often depending on how far they were standing from ground zero.

You my friend are a grossly ignorant fool and if you are a United States citizen, you are insult to our country and I personally apologize to the rest of the world for your niave, backward thinking stupidity.

I'd respond to the rest of your post, but quite frankly you do such a wonderful job of making yourself look like an ignorant fool that I really don't need to take any effort or waste any time in pointing it out to anybody, it's plainly clear, your end of the gene pool apparently needed a lil more chlorine.

LOL!

Although I am from the States, I am more than willing to side with the Japanese on their take on the war. IMHO, for the past who-knows-how-long, American foriegn policy has been nothing short of bogus, egotist/superiority oneupman-ship trash.

The States is dipping their hands in EVERYTHING. For the past 5 presidents, we've attacked four East Asian *countries* (ncluding Saudia Arabia AND Iraq), tired to assassinate Saddam Hussein, Fidel Castro and that Taliban guy. Not to mention, we also had a little "scuffle" with North Korea over nukes. All in the name of freedom.

Remember Patriot Act, DMCA, CBDTPA, etc? On those last two, I think we've invaded the Internet too.

And as for abortion. Extremist, insane FundaMENTAList Christians get to call abortion (and trust in classroooms) anti-Christ. I don't see us (the sensible people, no doubt) calling those bunch "Anti-Science"! That's EXACTLY what they are! And thanks to Congress, we're not only suing Harvard law professors and Dmitry Skyrlav (or whoever), we've going after physicians too!

My colleagues call me "un patoriotic" and tell me to move to Canada. When I'm in my professional career, that's EXACTLY where I'm going!

neither the U.S. nor the Japanese should be proud of what happened during WWII.

we can't really say that the U.S. was fighting for democracy because we racial inequality was still rampant and the civil rights movement was still a decade away. The dropping of the atomic bombs might be one of the most horrendous acts in the history of humanity.

at the same time, the Japanese are guilty of many war crimes. the rape of Nanking completely stripped China of its dignity. They also tested biological weapons on civilian targets in Manchuria, forced Koreans into prostitution, and ignored the rights of surrendered U.S. soldiers walking the Bataan Death March.

Excuse me, dumbass, but does MacArthur, or "I shall return!" ring a bell? MacArthur was put in charge of all military action in the South Pacific, and was forced to hold against the Japanese in the Phillippines for over a year with no supplies. Imagine being crammed in a stinking, hot cavern with thousands of native Filippinos sick with disentary, TB, and suffering from malnutrition.

The Japanese were following the Nazi's plan of a major land grab throughout Asia and the Pacific. If you remember, we allied with Chiang Kai Shek and Mao Tsetung to help fight the Japanese in China, and use China as a landing zone for our first retalliation against them for Pearl.

So where am I getting these facts? Try "Chronicle of America", the "Color of War" series on the History Channel, "Secrets of World War II", again on the History Channel. Don't even try to correct me on the North African theater of WWII, because I've studied Rommel as well.

Ah, foreign policy.

DECADES AGO:
Japan blows up China. China blows up Japan. US blows up Korea and China. China blows up US in Korea. US blows up Japan. US and China blows up Japan again.

NOW:
US blows up Iraq. Iraq government gone.
US blows up certain building in Saudi. Hussein gone.
US up in arms over Iran and North Korea over nukes.

AND THE PM OF THE UNITES STATES OF AMERICA IS A:
Congress has adopted a new flag!
"Let's blow up Indonesia today!"

"all is fair in love and war"
Americans love Japan
And I dont think bombing us in a suprise attack really qualifies as honor when we hadnt even declared war on them yet

Check your history my corn friend.
Before the war the U.S. and Brittain told Japan that if they built too many ships for their navy we would declare war.
6 months before the Pearl Harbor we sank a Japanese sub.
They cut diplomatic ties with us, this is always a sign of trouble.

They responded in the way that a Samurai would, strike hard, fast and first.

They don't tell you these things unless you go looking for the truth. They also will tell you that the war in the Pacific ended in 1946 back in high school but it actually ended in April of 1945.

One thing they like to keep secret is that right after the first a-bomb went off the contacted us to ask for terms on their surrender. We dropped no. 2 on them while ignoring their request.

Put that on your cob and fuck it

Wtf are you smoking? What does the washington treaty of 1922 Ie amount of battleships that could be built have to do with pearl harbor nothing! Oh yeah the japs were breaking it. But oh well how what can you expect from a country that didn't stick to the Geneva convention because it conflicted with Bushido. Japan attacked pearl because we had sanctions on Japan because it invaded china! The sanctions deprived Japan of the Oil it needed to fight its war in china. Ever hear of the rape of Nanking? We sunk a sub that was spying on pearl harbor yes. And now the pacific war ended in 1946? Wtf who were we fighting? The japanese surrendered in may 45 Duh. what history class did you take? Oh and I need your source that says the Japanese were surrendering after the first A bomb was dropped? In any case the Japanese were 100% wrong in attacking pearl harbor they were used to there cowardly sneak attacks working they had done it 3 times before In wars with china 1894,Russia 1905, and china again 1933? The Japanese whose country had been taken over by warlords believed they were the Yamato race hmm sounds kinda like the nazis master race huh? THey beleived that asia rightfully belonged to them and all the other asians were just slave races. They had a specail unit who's job was to do human experiments to prove it. Any apolgist ever tries to explain off the japanese as not as bad as nazis well now you know that is bullshit. Ok now all my stuff is backed up in Times lifes second world war series of books I don't know maybe you have a better source?

The japanese surrendered in may 45 Duh. what history class did you take? Oh and I need your source that says the Japanese were surrendering after the first A bomb was dropped?

What class did you take? They surrendered in August, genius, and that's about as factual as it gets

The Japanese didn't attack Russia, it was Russian colonial expansion that caused conflicting interests. The defeat of the Russians in the battle of Tsushima was very much a fair battle where the Japanese were at a disadvantage, even. The Russians lost 5000 sailors in that battle, but it was Costly for Japan as well. Afterwards, the Japanese, having been impressed with the honorable fight that the Russians put up, awarded the admiral who fought against them with their highest military award.

Of course, this isn't to say war is clean, or that Japanese were somehow good, but I'm just cramping your act.
