frick giving Hirohito an excuse. The Rape of Nanking was orchestrated by him and members of his family. They don't get an out for that atrocity.

Because calling Trump “literally Hirohito” doesn’t have the same ring to it.

The fact that Bush Sr went to Hirohoto's funeral to honor him is pretty fricking sick, and he should be called out on it.
Poor Monday Morning QBing there sport, Truman, Ike, Kennedy, LBJ, Nixon, Ford, Carter, Reagan should all be dug up and first blamed, Bush Sr. got handed the leagacy of our Post-war realpolitik relationship with Japan and was thusly obliged to attend.

The Imperial Japanese Army shot at 41 and shot his plane down.

He (41) knew better than anyone posting here* that the WWII Japanese were muthafrickas.

quote:

The man was as bad and violent as Hitler was, and the only purpose for a state visit would be to literally piss on his grave.
Wrong on Hirohito's temperament, if Hitler was a 10 in "bad and violent", Hirohito was a 1 or a 2.

(The Cold) War makes strange bedfellows.

It was in the U.S.'s best post WWII interests to retain Hirohito and it worked out well for us.

Werner von Braun and his friends were rewarded after their Nazi crimes by us because it was expediant.

shite happens. The world is not a perfect place.

*My dad also knew, but he's now dead. They shot at him too.

Well they're all guilty as well. I have no problem admitting that. As I said, he and several members of his family should have been executed. The blood is on their hands for not doing it.

The man orchestrated Nanking, the single most violent massacre of the 20th century. He may have been more composed, but he was still a piece of shite xenophobic racist who looked at the Chinese as animals and didn't give a single shite about the reports that came out. I'm certain that Hitler would have his own generals executed if they tried the "kill 100 men with a sword" competition in Paris, and very openly at that.

Why yes. What the Japanese were accused of doing, they actually did. What the Nazis were accused of doing...exterminating six million Jews is absolute bull shite. So yea...the Japanese were much worse.

1) Bc the Nazis were Western Europeans
2) Jews were a target

Liberalism is staunchly anti-west. Hell, ask any liberal and he'll tell you the KKK was worse than the Young Turks.

So they estimate that between 3 and 14 million civilians died? That's not exactly precise. How are we supposed to take what they say seriously?


We say Hitler killed 6 million jews.

Well, what are the actual estimates? The answer, they vary. . .wildly.

There is a reason they say "up to" 6 million.

It was an unconscionable shitload, but records (even German ones) were not perfect.

So imagine how shitty record keeping was in China

I know what the Turks did, they damn near wiped out all the Armenians.

Dated a girl whose grandparents came from Armenia several years back. She was a pagan then and now a Muslim. Which I thought was odd

Native Hawaiians dislike all mainland Americans but they just don't know how fortunate they truly are... Or at least they don't care.

If the US Navy loses the Battle of Midway who knows what atrocities the Japanese Imperial Navy would've inflicted upon them... The majority of the male and elderly population would've been bayoneted.. Babies thrown in the ocean... Some children cannibalized... Others buried alive... Women and young girls raped by the thousands.


Japan's goal would've been simple .. Commit atrocities so barbaric that the US Gov't would sue for peace just to end the violence and bloodshed against noncombatants.

They have hot and willing and willing women, and a lot of cute or cool cartoons... Germany has beer and blondes and anger.
