We Were Right to Drop the Bomb

..... I'm a second generation veteran... if the government can't trust me, they really can't trust anyone.

......

I don't care if you're a 10th generation janitor at the White House. You're a racist, untrustworthy son of a bitch and you deserve more than a few years in a concentration camp, asshole.

 

[Unkotare]

Putting Japanese nationals in relocation camps pending returning them to Japan would not only have been legal, but a normal practice. The problem was that second and third generation American citizens were confined to the camps as well. That was illegal and people should have gone to jail for it.

There was nothing right about the scumbag fdr's concentration camps for any of his innocent victims.

 

[Unkotare]

....He didn't want war with Japan, he wanted war with Germany and war with Japan would have been a distraction.

War with Japan was his guarantee that Germany would declare war on us. Very few dots to connect.

 

[Unkotare]

......



yeah, he only saved us from the Great Depression and defeated fascism. .....

He deepened and prolonged the Great Depression, and it was the courage and determination of the American military and American people that won the war the scumbag fdr so eagerly sought.

 

[Unkotare]

.....And you know from the last two years of this war that the Axis Powers have found collaborators in every country they've invaded.

.....

Not one Japanese American was ever convicted of espionage or sabotage during the war.

No. Civilians were not targeted early in the war. The US and Britain targeted civilians with their massacres from the air. Ruthlessly killing women and children. Germany tried to avoid civilian casualties early on, other than targeting Jews. The Japanese were ruthless and did kill civilians, but not any more than the US.

Why do Americans think total war is acceptable? It’s not. It’s a war crime. Truman should have been hung at Nuremberg for his mass murdering of innocent civilians.

Do you know any history at all? Germany was bombing defenseless civilians in Spain as early as 1937. Does Guernica ring any bells for you? The Germans also bombed Warsaw in Poland AFTER the defenses were removed and the Polish government notified the German government that Warsaw had been declared a open city. German aircraft strafed civilian refugees in Poland even before the UK entered the war. The Japanese behaved the same way in China from 1936 on as well as in Manchuria and Korea beginning as far back as 1931. The Italians bombed and gassed Ethiopian civilians as well before the war. The Axis powers were all big on attacking defenseless civilians and bombing cities.

.....You have 110,000 people who were born or directly linked to the power that just attacked you......

Innocent people, US CITIZENS, who had nothing to do with the attack on a US military base on Pearl Harbor.

Everything about the scumbag fdr's CONCENTRATION CAMPS was immoral and unconstitutional.

Wrong. He did want war with Japan. Jesus dude get informed.

No he didn't, he was already fighting an undeclared war against Germany in the Atlantic. American warships were being torpedoed and sunk by U Boats and the USN was escorting BRITISH convoys halfway across the Atlantic because the RN lacked convoy escorts. Stop reading conspiracy theories and read some real history written by the people who were actually there.

It was normal procedure under international law to intern the citizens of opposing powers until they could be safely repatriated to their home countries. WWII was some what unusual in that the Japanese refused to repatriate enemy civilians and kept them in REAL concentration camps where they were brutalized. The Japanese also refused to accept their own citizens being repatriated. When I was growing up I had a number of Nisei and Sansei friends who either had parents or grandparents in the relocation camps. I talked to the adults, none of them thought the camps were horrible places. They were not very nice facilities, but the guards mostly treated the internees from decently to very well. If they had been real concentration camps, the young men wouldn't have been queuing up to enlist for the 442nd RCT, the 100th Infantry Battalion or the 522nd Field Artillery Battalion. In all, 33,000 Nisei men and women VOLUNTEERED to serve in the US military and the 442nd was one of the most decorated Army units of WWII.

There was no guarantee. The pact between Japan and Germany was one of defense. Only if one was attacked did the other HAVE to declare war on the attacker. Sooner or later either Germany was going to declare, or the U Boats would sink an important enough ship to overcome the isolationist sentiment in congress that was preventing FDR from declaring war against Germany.

For once you are right about something historical.

You are correct again, but there were three Japanese on Niihau that should have been. They were assisting a downed Japanese pilot in causing trouble on the island. They kidnapped a few people and terrorized others for a few days until some native Hawaiians killed or captured them.

Some were US citizens, many of the adults were Japanese nationals living in the USA under Green Cards.

Except that it really wasn't illegal. There were a whole lot of earlier laws to back them up, such as the Alien Enemies Act from WWI, or the Alien and Sedition acts.

Alien and Sedition Acts - Wikipedia

More to the point, the internment was voted on in Congress (where both houses voted for it after less than an hour of deliberation, ) and it was challenged at the Supreme Court in several cases, all of which found in favor of the government.

The scary thing about Dripping Poop is that he claims to be a teacher. I'd be kind of horrified if someone this deranged was teaching in a school where I had kids.

I don't care if you're a 10th generation janitor at the White House. You're a racist, untrustworthy son of a bitch and you deserve more than a few years in a concentration camp, asshole.

Um, yeah, guy, seriously, you need help.

He deepened and prolonged the Great Depression, and it was the courage and determination of the American military and American people that won the war the scumbag fdr so eagerly sought.

So what would have been your solution, keep out of it, let the Japanese murder all the Chinese and the Nazis murder everyone else? FDR was commendable in wanting to stop that crap.

Not one Japanese American was ever convicted of espionage or sabotage during the war.

Well, kind of hard to do if you are locked up. So thanks for admitting the policy worked.

Innocent people, US CITIZENS, who had nothing to do with the attack on a US military base on Pearl Harbor.

But also people whose loyalty we couldn't vouch for if the Yamato showed up off the coast of LA and started lobbing 18 inch shells.

Should also point out that 11,000 Americans of German ancestry were interned during the war as well, as were 3000 Italians.

Your own article says that half of them were minor children. What you should be upset about is that if Japan had allowed repatriation, they would have been forced to go to Japan with their parents. Why are you so hostile? I agree that adult American citizens shouldn't have been sent to the camps. But the children had to go with their parents. Things could have been a lot worse, the US could have treated the internees like the Japanese treated their internees, starvation, forced labor, sexual slavery. Why do you constantly try to prove that Japanese crap doesn't stink?
I said before that confining enemy aliens in time of war pending repatriation was legal and customary under international law. Japan was the one breaking the law, not the USA. But I'll say it again, ADULT US CITIZENS SHOULDN'T HAVE BEEN SENT TO THE CAMPS. There, does that satisfy you?

What lucky children to be thrown into concentration camps! What kind of low-life, unAmerican scum are you?
