I would acquit every accused person involved in the Nuremberg Trials if I had to choose between convicting them and these people.
Was that sarcasm?
Hey, the Nazis didn't just gas jews and burn their bodies. There were thousands on medical experiments performed on those placed in the camps. Things that go way beyond this...but they don't outweigh it.

It doesn't make them worse, it levels the playing field. But, there are few detailed descriptions of the medical experiments performed on those place in the concentration camps. And, beyond that, there are so many medical advances in the U S of A that have been depended on the medical experiments first develpoed by the Nazis...and carried out by them.
Japan had nothing to do with Hitler.
Japan's colonial army rebel against the government and it was them that signed Japan as part of the axis. (Japan never did anything with Germany and Hitler). The attack on Pearl Harbor was a preventative attack so Japan would be out of danger if the USA launched an attack on Japan. Unfortunately, they didn't destroy the "portes-avions", which was the main goal of the attack. USA moved them away. USA knew the attack was coming but didn't do anything, because : it was the week-end.
They used this attack as a pretext to launch the war on Japan.
No, Japan didn't deserve the A-bombs.
(In WW1, Japan was the country that treated the war prisonners the most nicely. WW2 was because of the colonial army)
I been reading this article and it appears to be some controversy with Japanese History Textbooks:

Of course the main critics are from China.
The Japanese were somewhat, well, retarded during WWII. Honestly, they thought that they could use WEATHER BALLOONS to drop bombs on us. Though they launched a multitude of these balloons, the casualties were insignificant: a total of six people died, three being a mother and her two children, when they found a landed one and it detonated as they investigated it.
