It seems many of you have not read or understood your own history. You accuse the Americans of being blood-thirsty demons while forgetting about the Rape of Nanking, the Bataan Death March, your own racist demagoguery of the Americans that lead to the suicides of tens of thousands of your own civilians in Okinawa rather than be captured by the Americans and the specter of millions of more Japanese civilians committing sepukku or other suicidal acts if the US has gone forward with Operation Olympic. Should the US have waited until Japan produced a viable nuclear bomb from its own nuclear weapons program? The fact is that if Japan had any type of weapon, it used it on its enemies. From toxic gases to balloons with fire bombs attached to rape and the murder of civilians to the lives of its young men in suicide charges and kamikaze attacks; the Japanese showed little compunction from using any and every thing it had available in its arsenal. Look beyond what they have taught you in your schools, because the truth is at your fingertips....as it appears is your ignorance.
