well, now i don't feel so bad for (my ancestors) unleashing a little nuclear ass whoopin' x2!!

it would be a little different if they used those tactics for psycological warfare. second thought, they probably did it for personnel moral. hey, war is hell. still makes you want to go kick a face in.

Some of the stories my grandmother could tell when the Japanese invaded the Philippines would make your heart drop and your hair stand on end. The everyday Japanese soldier was beyond cruel.

Well in modern times, China is developing mobile execution centers in the form of vehicle dressed up like ambulance to electrocute prisoners and have a means to harvest organs.

Not that you would want to, but have a look into what China is doing to their prisoners.

Just as crazy as Japan and Germany in WW II.

I thought that was an urban myth. It's true?

...and some people wonder why asian's hate when you mistake them for being Japanese! If they only knew half the stuff the Japanese has done.

Can you imagine how this world would be if we hadn't droped the bomb on Japan?

My grandfather was a WWII vet, although he has past many years ago. I still remember some of the stories that he told me of his times in war.

You are exactly right Kat. The Japanese were extremely cruel to the Philipinos. They were not that much different than the Germans and their concentration camps.
I just hope that all concerned (Japan, Germany, etc)...have evolved and will never make that mistake again.
