I wasn't aware Yamamoto attended Howard. Interesting. Were our

Oh, wait...we were the good guys in that war, with god on our side. I
forgot.
Yeah I forgot we managed to win WWII without killing any civilians.
You're the one who tagged Yamamoto as a villain for being a military
officer and doing as he was directed by his government. We behaved
horrifically towards the SE Asians during our war against Vietnam, a
country populated by people who never attacked our homeland and never
would have and, in fact, were the victims of European colonialism.
