Don't be a fuckin idiot. Saying I am racist only makes you look studpid when I am a white man with a black wife.

I find it hard to imagine what you can possibly say next to defend your countries actions. You clearly have no idea about how your military works, or what exactley the US is doing, waging wars against people for refusing to adhere to an agreement they did not sign themself, which turned out to be flawed anyway.

Regardless, at the end of the day I can always go to sleep truly believeing I am the bigger man, given I have the stomach to take a tumble rather than bear the alternative of incinerating little kiddies for my cultural and conceptual kicks of freedom and justice that really change nothing anyway. I am NOT the one who kills kids. LOL

Again you missed the whole point. In fact you even admitted to the correctness of my claims then backed into the corner trying to say that race doesn't really go beyond skin colour. I don't care what colour skin your wife has you're still a racist against the US.

I'm just going to quote something a few posts down from you to prove this a little more:

From the rest of the world, the Chinese emperor was off and on, and has been 50/50 depending on the emperor or particular General at the time. The Arabs have been the best behaving, and when they converted to Islam, in most cases when a city was conquered they would do it causing as little damage with seige weapons as possible, and then when they arrived, any civilian opposed to the new rule was alowed to leave freely. Most Asian countires went through similar times. Yet all countries have had bad leaders or lords. Some more than others.

Now you say that you're not racist against the US, and try to say that it's a nation, not a skin colour yet right there you've defined Europeans as a race. As far as skin colour and looks go, Europeans and Americans are the same. You defined it as the European race even though the word just isn't defined in that context where you come from?

Sorry Tenchu, you are a racist bigot against the US. I don't care how many cute "nice" words you try and use to describe your hate, or how much you hate being called a racist but your attitude proves that every time you speak about the US.

Also how was my comment discriminatory?

And yes the invasion of Japan was necessary in a way, but not to end the war as you are claiming.... I don't think you understand the situation back then. Japan at the time was ALL BUT defeated. The United States however knew that they had to beat the Soviets to Japan.

I was mainly directing that towards your comment about americans wanting to just test out the weapon on some "yellows". Just because it's the US, doesn't mean you can't discriminate against it.

It's true Japan was basically defeated at the point, however Japan wasn't acting like it in any way. If Japan had surrendered when it should have the bombs wouldn't have been dropped at all. Fact remains dropping those bombs ended the war.
