ORIGINAL: Doggie That would be your outrageous position. Typical of you to attribute things to me I never said, like the lie about shooting Japanese Prisoners. There was a reason for strafing soldiers in life boats. It kept them from reaching shore alive and killing American soldiers. I haven't said a word about firebombing anybody in their homes, either. It would seem that you are now trying to backpeddal and retreat from some of your more famous statements in this thread. Instead of trying the "oh, but thats not what I meant"-defence, you should come clean and admit that what you said was wrong. You never said that soldiers were to be strafed in life boats, you said that japanese should be strafed in life boats. You said that all japanese were stinking savages, and that is why they were shot when captured. You havent said a word about firebombing anyone in their homes? Well you were in here singing LeMay's praises, and thats pretty much the only thing he is known for. Well, that and his absolute desire to have a nuclear war over Korea. LeMay was the one who thought that firebombing Tokyo would be a swell idea, and you were in here telling us how LeMay taught the Japs a lesson. Clearly you are defending his actions, clearly you are defending the idea that firebombing residential areas is ok. If not, here is your chance. If you believe it is wrong to firebomb residential areas in a war, then speak up now. quote:
How about you document one of your outrageous lies just this once and show us where I've said anything about murdering the thousands of Japanese who survived U.S. captivity, or anything about exterminating Japanese in general based on their race. What I have said is the truth, that Japanese soldiers were sadistic savages and deserve no sympathy. Actually, until you are able to understand the fact that not all Japanese soldiers were sadistic savages, then you are stuck on square one. The inability to see people of a different race as individuals, and instead you bunch them all together in a vicious, evil stereotype where they are all presented as monsters who deserve no sympathy...well, that is racist. quote:
No, you engage in stereotyping when you judge all American soldiers on one isolated incident, which you have. The actions of the Nanking Gang, and the Okinawa gang, and the Battan gang, and the Singapore gang, and the Guam gang, and every other gang of murderous thugs in the Japanese army were typical of their behavior, not exceptional. It is still a stereotype quote:
The native Americans committed quite a few atrocities of their own. But you wouldn't know that as it's obvious you know nothing of the American Indian wars. Of cource I know alot about the indian wars. I can, after all, read. We do not all build our thoughts and opinions on predjudice, inferiority complexes and tales told to us by our uncles you know. quote:
No atrocities were committed against the Germans, Italians, and Japanese interned in the United States during world war II. And not all Germans, Italians, and Japanese were interned. You'd know that too if you knew anything at all about the subject. Ah, but the fact that they were interned at all is the atrocity here. quote:
And then you have the nerve to claim that historical facts like the existence of Swedish concentration camps are not relevant because you say so. How about a source for even one of your fantasies? There were no Swedish concentration camps. The fact that you want to pretend there were does not change that fact. If you want to claim there were, then the burden of proof lies with you. I can hardly be called upon to prove the non-existance of something.
