I'll bet none of the families of the Chinese that the Japanese were slaughtering have an issue with it. But this isn't new. As usual, liberals get it wrong again. Why? Because other liberals taught them history.

We need to somehow make it a felony to teach abridged history. Because it's not teaching. It's fraud.

The Japanese pulled a very sneaky, dirty act when they attacked Pearl Harbor and killed so many service people. The bombs were devastating, but they did end the war right then and there.

Just one more false story out there that the Trumpees eat up like candy.
There's no such thing in war as a dirty attack and in all likelihood the Russian declaration of war and annihilation of the Japanese on mainland Asia were probably about as important. Keep in mind they didn't surrender after we fried Tokyo...or after the first bomb....and even took many days after the second bomb not knowing if a 3rd was on it's way. They were still hoping to bargain and the Russians took their last chip.

Yeah right. Non discriminatrly killing non combatants, civilian women, children, old people is 'the right thing to do'. As long as you can invent a rationalization at least.

They had a chance to overthrow their leadership, and didn't. At that point it's a matter of asses. Theirs or ours. They lost.

Maybe the Chinese should be taught about their history, just a thought.

Maybe American should learn how many service members the Chinese killed in Korea and Vietnam war.
Just a thought

Maybe you should take a class on the Gregorian calendar. We're talking about World War 2. Believe it or not, this occurred 9 years before the Korean war, and 14 years before the Vietnam war. 24 years before the US entered the VW.

Believe it or not Snowflake, later acts don't justify their victimization.

well, I am just saying if you want to talk about Japanese war crimes, maybe you shouldn't mind bringing up the Chinese "sin". Snowflake.

Obama never apologized, but that won't stop the Trump Pumpers from repeating it ad nauseum for the rest of their lives. Gives them something to do, I guess.

So using your logic we would be justified in dropping a nuke on the middle-east any day now. I can't wait.
