Truth Stranger Than Fiction

 Did that really happen? Do you know of any books about it other then the fiction?

[GtoRA2]

Right, If I had a choice of being an airman and being captured by the Germans or Japanese, the choice is clear! The Germans treated western prisoners fairly well.

How many civilians did the Germans kill?

How many did the Japanese, in China?


 I learned what I know of this from reading, none from history classes and that is disturbing to me.

Do I think we should hold it against them now? No, not at all but it needs to be remembered. Our Kids need to know what happened in these wars.

why not hold it against them....wage war on them...seize their industy and use it to make cool gadgets for the kids back home?

might as well..its not like they can defend themselves or anything.

Yup they're really fediddleed up, just look at their porn:
 - its illegal to show pubic hair and squidgy bits in Japanese porn
 - its legal to show underage girls as long as the above rule is not broke
 - hentai cartoons often depict underage girls getting raped by multi-noodle-versions of Creamo
 - that wierd gas-mask porn fetish they have
 - Japanese businessmen are the biggest customers for the barely legal and not so legal prosititution markets in Cambodia

I mean I like my porn, but that Japanese stuff is just wayyyyyy out there.

I've said it before, i'll say it again... the Japanese Culture has evolved the the most racist and remorseless of all human societys, surpassing even the french for arrogance and as such they are the most dangerous 'civilized' human sub-group on the face of this planet.

Any country that puts beer in a vending machine can't be all bad.

eskimo, germans were very good towards western nations prisoners. Russians however were a quite a different story.
Also, number of medical experiments matching those of Japanesse was carried out in different concentration camps thoughout europe.
As for civilian casualties, i don't know exact numbers, but trust me, you didn't want to be a civilian wrapped up in german invasion either.

[UserName]

Yeah, both the Japs and Krauts intentionally infected POW's and civilians with various different diseases. Quite sickening to read the survivours accounts of the testing.

I hope it's a joke Hang ...

I can only say what ive experienced personally. The racism part is pretty accurate imo. remorseless... dunno, that falls under the cultural category i think. From what i know, backing down or admitting a mistake when you are a superior is a great shame and thus is avoided at any cost.

"A huge mistake was made at the end of the war.. the Japanese culture should have been utterly, wholely and completly destroyed.. not the people.. just the culture."

Work in Progress.

"Some social systems are just to damn evil to be left to propogate."

Didnt bin laden say that too?

"A re-emerging miltarist Japan with an army, navy and airforce is a very gawdamned dangerous thing to have laying around at your back. "

any militarist nation is dangerous. You could say that applies to the USA as well, but as always, its a matter of circumstances.


Back on topic, this kidnapping isnt a new idea either. The USSR had "American Towns" built where people lived, talked and dressed the american way.. and their spies were trained there. Im sure the US had its ways to train their own operatives. After all, what good is a spy if even a commoner can spot he's a foreigner?

Man its like going to a restaurant in france and using the wrong fork to eat the salad.
