Oh, and he punishment was the Emperor refusing to surrender at the cost of more lives from both sides when the war was obviously over for them.
Nice try, though.
You don't understand invasion, then. They invaded our airspace and land. They sought to destroy. They did it with the guise of peace. That's a rather horrible and disgusting thing to do, but it was war and that's how they sought to win it.
Luckly for the Japanese, we won the war and built them back up into the second largest economy in the world.
And, no, I never said anything about nukes, in my reply to you. Actually, I'm perfectly fine with thermobaric weapons being used. Yes, Iraq was invaded and the Iraqi people had every right to fight back with any means necessary. But I don't think Nukes should be used at all.
War is a terrible thing, isn't it?
Nah. I've already done so. I actually posted several posts in this thread which contain so much more intelligence and relevance to this thread than you will ever post in your life. You should read those.
Correct. You kill them when in a war when they wage war on you and try to conquer your nation BECAUSE they wanted to conquer you and took action.
Wow. You just made a point and then contradicted yourself. Nice going.
And, yet, there were still lives being lost on both sides and an Emperor refused to surrender.
You must not have payed attention in your A-Level class on modern World History.
This is no way addresses his post or the topic at hand. Do you see now what a dodge is?
and yes, i think being the bigger killer is a pretty good way to judge whose worse, dont you ?
i didnt say japan didnt do those things to chinese. i SPECIFICALLY said the body count on each SIDE, meaning, number of americans killed vs number of japanese killed. dont try and create a strawman. as for SEEKING atomic bombs to drop on the US, its another example of thought crime punishment and scare tactic, making it utter bullshit. and again, their chemical weapons/mass murder/mass starvation{which has NOTHING to do with AMERICA i might addd} over a PERIOD of time still pale to the the twin nukes in CIVILIAN areas along with SPECIFICALLY napalm bombing CIVILIAN cities with WOODEN houses in just a few days.
but i can see that you are overzealous about having your specific moot examples noted while completely avoiding mine. so i dont expect much.
We killed far fewer of their citizens than they did, alone, with their Germ Warfare tests.
Not that we are spotless in the things we did. Even using the nukes was considered the best way to save as many American and Japenese lives as possible.
Yeah, it's also good to not consider the context, just blanket everything, that always works best. You're as illogical as they come.
I never said you didn't. I am saying you're cherry picking actions to judge both parties by, this is why your claim of America being the bigger bastard than Japan in WWII is nothing but biased shit; it lacks any objectivity.
You mess with the Eagle you get the Talon. Japan attacked us. If they didnt want any they should have stayed home.
America is shit huh? Then get off the American made internet. I cant wait to we take it to Pakistan!!
who is america, to punish any1 else? and oddly, the emporer was never targetted by the nuke, civilians were. you fail
stop loving yourself. i understand it plenty well. and i understand that pearl harbour, an attack on a military target is no justification to firebomb and nuke CIVILIANS, learn to reason, please.
how GENEROUS of you. again, in love witht he sound of ur own voice. america built them back with a near pupper government, lucrative economic deals with america, and the american presence near communist china and north korea, a bit like israel.
im not. there is no justification for the empire building opressor to use ANYTHING
its a terrible thing BECAUSE people do terrible acts. that statement isnt a rationalisation but an affirmation of the illegality and moral reprehensibility of the acts commited in a war.
no you havent. youve just proven how incredibly full of yourself as a human being you are, and that might be excusable if you were actually SMART. afraid your not though. you just become stupider with ur ego.
"wage war" is one of those weasly terms like "agressors" "ill intent"and "terrorist" that float around people and media who want to start the discussion off with unproven assumptions.
and they never invaded america so what your saying makes no sense.
no. your just stupid
as did the americans. what about it? who gave AMERICA the authority to PUNISH him? and how do u punish HIM by firebombombing and nuking civilians? i call bullshit
stop with the personal attacks, its embarrising to see just how much of a grudge you hold against me and also quite clear that your motivation for joining these debates out of the blue is some grudge you hold against me.
as for the last part . ofcourse now you have managed to drag the discussion further away from the points i made as to have them forgotten by the time your second post comes in. good thinking. makes me feal like youd make a good lawer. changing the subtext when your smart enough to realise that you cant possibly respond.
forgetting context. we are comparing AMERICA'S action vs JAPANS. what the japanese did to CHINA has no consequence in this matter. we are looking for JUSTIFICATIONS for each partie's actions against each OTHER. as such only american suffering at the hand of the japs vs jap suffering at the hand of the americans is to be considered. serves you right for butting in to conversations without realising context.
as for the last part, its utter propagandist bullshit. nukes werent necessary, firebombs werent necessary. all that was required was the destruction of the navy. start learning your history from actual scholarly sources as opposed to domestic history books {i.e. propganda}
american made internent? take it to pakistan? "mess with the eagle and you get the talon"? ................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................................
and THEN people castrate you for pointing out the stupidity and ignorance in america. sigh.
Dosent matter what people really think. America rules the world including your world. Remember if America played by your rules we could take over the world. We fight fair and try not to kill civillians. If we wanted to we could devastate Iraq, Iran, Pakistan etc, but we keep your civillians alive when we could easily kill them.
so basically, your our GODS and we shud be THANKFUL that you allow SOME of us to live in socioeconomic circumstances YOU see fit for us to live in SOME of the time??????
how old are you?
oh btw, have you heard of mutually assured destruction? because, pakistan, the country i LIVE in {dont vouluntarily subscribe to its citizenship or its society} has enough nukes and un interceptable long range missiles to kill every single human being in north america.
i hope u grow some brain cells in the time it takes you to read all this.
No you dont. You are too uneducated and poor to design missles to reach North America. Your missle range is laughable. You also dont have enough bombs. you have 60 we have 10,000 plus. Even India could beat Pakistan.
Me: Dude, Will raped my mother and both my sisters. He killed one of my sisters while at it. After that, he hit me in the back of the head with a baseball bat. That's why I beat him until he ended up in the hospital.
You: Doesn't matter. You shouldn't have beaten him at all after you broke his arms. Despite the fact that he kept fighting and kicking you and your family, putting him in a coma was too far. Even though you offered very peaceful options to give up, you still went too far.
Me: You retard. Even though I helped him in the hospital. Read to him everyday, and tought him everything he needed to know and now, he's the second richest man in the world, only to me?
You: Yup. What you did was waaaaaaaaay over the line and you're a monster for having done so.
Me: K.
America's: End the war and agressions against America while preserving as many lives on each side as possible.
Japan's: Furthering the God King's ambitions at any costs.
Oh hi, there, logic.
Oh hi, there, illogic.
Serves you right for being absurdly ignorant and illogical. Would you like me to make a fool of you, some more?
I've already posted why it was necesary...or at least the reasoning at the time. The reasoning is sound and cannot be readily proven wrong. The only evidence we have is in favor of the bombs being used as it accomplished exactly what it was intended to be for. Even still, estimates put the loss of military and citizen lives at a much higher level had America done the mainland invasion...not to mention the loss of American lives, which were much more important than those of the enemy.
lmao. this is one of the most pathetic and ignorant racist rants ive seen on kmc. pakistan HAS missiles that can reach north america and officially disclosed number of nukes is far lesser{as they ALWAYS are for legal reason} than the actual number. pakistan has an arsenal of superior efficiancy to india. and do u have any idea what 60 nukes alone cud do to america, not even factoring in the yeild of conventional nuclear bombs.
more importantly, was it your parents or your society that made you such an ignorant racist and lover of a terrorist nation?
Pakistan has nothing that can reach the States. Our nuclear submarines could easily be right off your coast right now. Besides you brought up Nukes first. We dont need Nukes to conquor Pakistan, especially if we fight dirty.
only, china isnt compareable to america's family. america didnt drop the bombs to help china, and america didnt HELP japan later for anything other than ulterior motives. there goes your rant
war wudv ended with th destruction of the navy. it dropped TWO, nukes, the first did pretty much end the war. the preserving lives is bullshit propaganda. im sorry for you if you buy it.
and no, the only reason america even took part was because ideologies and military powers opposing its own were emerging and an empire doesnt tolerate that. your bias is ridiculous. america has always been an empire, get that in your head.
no, please try again, and fall on your face.
there, u said, it, american lives were more important than japanese lives. showing ur incredible bias. and again, thats propaganda, on top of the fact that a mainland invasion WASNT necessary, only the destruction of the navy was to take away japan's strke potential. japan is an ISLAND you know.
and see, you keep saying that youve posted it, but you havent ACTUALLY posted anything worth value, and whenever u try, ur argument is destroyed. so stop with this nonsenical claim.
yes it does silly. and what will happen when you invade pakistan and and all those nukes end up exploding in america?
that isnt even the issue though. im asking where you got this idea in your head that you were better or greater than the wrest of the world based on your place of birth? or what gives YOU the right to police the world at all?
Dude you live in fantasy world. If we invaded Paki you would not have Nukes. I bet you any money we know where all your shit is. As far as policing the rest of the world I only care about USA, Western Europe, Canada, Australia, New Zealand and the Nordic countries.
