If this is true these idiots have no idea what a war atrocity really was during WWII.
Welcome home soldier. RIP. You were one of the lucky ones that got to live to age 92.

Every man and woman who served in that war is a true American hero and whenever I meet one, I tell them that. These young millienials should read what these men and woman went through in the Pacific or in Europe. Horrific, doesn't describe what these wars were like

They have no idea about atrocity, that's why they have to manufacture outrage. The worst thing most of these whiny ***** experienced is when their Wi-Fi doesn't work

A great book to read is Bill O'Reilly's, Killing of the Rising Sun. I'm not sure who was worse in atrocities the Japanese  or the Nazis.

 

Nazis.  Japanese were casually brutal.  But only German efficiency and bureaucracy could depersonalize and industrialize it.

those who fought both stated that the killing during the partition of India and Pakistan was far more brutal and ruthless.

Though I never doubt how nutso the left has gone, this could easily be a hoax . Can they really be THIS stupid and unaware? They have stepped on too many rakes recently and this just seems too perfect and like the perfect time for some mouthbreathing far right winger to try to attempt to pile on.

 

Edit: Yes, I know they can be. I'm just trying to be hopeful for some semblance of sanity.

In terms of sheer numbers, no one can touch the Nazis, but what the Japanese did to the Chinese, Filipinos, and even American POWs, was beyond inhumane

And Malayans, and Indonesians, and especially Koreans.  Certainly, the Japanese challenge the Nazis on mere numbers.

 

But that shouldn't be the distinguishing factor.  Japanese brutality was born of cultural attitudes of racialism and emotional repression merged with elements of Victorian imperialism, and compounded by a warrior ethos often misunderstood by Western observers (beheading a captured enemy is quoted commonly as a war crime, for example, but to the Japanese was considered mercy towards a respected enemy in defeat).  That led to Japanese atrocities being, not organized, but more "grass roots," taking place in a multitude of isolated instances or, when on a large scale, developing organically (such as the Bataan Death March or the Rape of Nanking) and not as a matter of policy.

 

Contrast that with the foundation of the Nazi brutality, which was founded in a unique belief of imperial Darwinism - imperial nations otherwise recognized the need for subject peoples to form the basis of colonial economies, Germany is the only nation among imperial powers to explicitly pursue policies of extermination against colonial natives (most of the practices they pursued in World War 2 - slave labor, human medical experiments, the "hunger plan," concentration camps - were present in their extermination of the Herero in Southwest Africa forty years earlier.  They even referred to both as racial struggles, literally the same term: rassenkampfen.  There's a direct like from Shark Island to Treblinka, or the Schutztruppen and Peiper's Blowtorch Battalion.)

 

The Japanese were brutal...but individually.  Their atrocities were rarely organized above a battalion level, if that, and not as a matter of policy.  The Germans organized atrocity at the level of an entire nation, as a planned and directed activity.

The Japanese imperialism was national fanaticism where no one was supposed  to get out alive. Genocide with a different twist.

Because a kid did a science project, extrapolated numbers based on a few phone cxalls, it got printed in the local newspaper, which got picked up by a politician...and presto...no more straws.

 

No, I'm not kidding

 

 

Can someone explain to me like I’m five, how do plastic straws on the US mainland have anything the f ***** to do with the “swirling mass” of detritus that is in the middle of the Pacific Ocean? 

Shouldn’t the SE Asian countries, China, Japan, and China be asked about this mess that they created?
