Thanks, It is accurate ... or do you think we didn't kill millions of civilians in the "good war". I am not really defending Cheney, only pointing out he did what we do when we engage in wars. How many civilians do you figure we killed when we were enforcing Clinton's "no fly zones". The Iraqis say it approached 50,000, we say it was 10% of that, still a big number. FDR, Truman and Churchill did not lie us into WW II. There were plenty of lies in the run up to WWII. Yeah, we attacked ourselves in Pearl Harbor and ran our blitzkriegs in Europe. Japan was forced in to war with the USA. We embargoed all oil from them. They were already in a nasty war in China, but FDR forced them to war with us. We violated lots of the neutrality rules in helping Europe/Russia. Thank you for your entertaining revisionism. The reality is that the Japanese were planning major military actions in Southeast Asia against overseas territories of the Netherlands, the United States and the United Kingdom. At the same time the Japanese were going after Pearl Harbor, they attacked Malaya, Singapore, and Hong Kong. The Japanese captured all three about two months after they bombed Pearl Harbor. Yup. But we were supposedly neutral. Which FDR did not want. He knew if we did what he planned, we would have to be drawn in to the war actively. We were going to be in the war anyway, but FDR made sure. Nothing right wing about it. Is the facts of history. |
