... A rather stupid question Jon, Your saying the Jap weren't the enemy that Hitler was? I don't remember Hilter's forces killing American civilians but I do know the Japs did. At Pearl and after in the Philippines! Never said that. What you said was that Hitler was the wrong enemy, and I asked why. Doesn't seem stupid to me. I guess it's time for me to ask;"What's your Point?" Iraq wasn't an enemy of the US, yet we attacked. That was my point. I know now you considered those deaths in the Pacific expendable lives so that we could save England's ass. Huh? That makes no sense. As the English were so guick to say about Americans; Over paid, over sexed and over here. I'm afraid it's something I lived. So, you would have preferred that England fell to Hitler, and we should have sat on our collective butts getting ready to attack Japan? How many millions more would have died? -- "j" ganz @@ www.sailnow.com |

If GW Bush had been President then, we would have invaded Russia or Australia, still be bogged down, and Japan would have won. Lordy but you people are sooooooooooo stupid with your discussions. Stupid and clueless. Listen up. The events of September 11, 2001 changed the face of warfare forever. This is a fact. After that heinous terrorist attack any responsible and sensible leader of a country that had been attacked had no choice but to assume a proactive stance against ANY EMINENT source of a new attack. Saddam Hussein was one such source. He had to go. He is gone, thank God! Iran is next on the list of threats. Sooner or later the leaders of Iran have to go. It's that simple and it's been stated about a million times but you fools still stick your fool heads up your asses and ignore the facts. You idiots choose to stick your heads up your asses and wait for the next attack at which time you will extend your fool necks several inches more and cram your heads even further up your ass. Thank God President Bush is no such a cowardly fool as you wankstains are. Wilbur Hubbard |

I have friends who are German, but they live in Germany and are not in Uk lording it over all my compatriots as they would have been if we had not wiped Hitler off the map. |

Another U-boat once mined New York Harbor. You can look these up. Before the Japanese attacked Pearl Harbor? I didn't think so. The sinking of the Reuben James occured months before. DSK |

I'm thinking that his point may have been that it was a long time ago and that citizens of the former Axis countries, and their current gov'ts, should not be objects of hatred & invective.
