But I think in order to do so we cant take a relativistic approach to justifying past events.
All the things you talk about... Germany bombing Britain, Japan attacking Asian countries and torturing POWs... they are all atrocities too that I condemn.
I think if we are going to be honest... the Allies too committed atrocities and to try and justify means maybe we havent learnt that much.
Anyway.... Im sorry you had to live through such horror and Im happy that you seem to be on a journey of discovery concerning Japan and Germany.
And for what its worth... I think women are just as capable of rational thinking as men! So yes I DO expect rational thinking from you  |
Rational Me NO I am past all that and at an age to behave disgracefully.
one track mind--Maybe but you are just pedantic over one subject without really being willing to think about reasons. But hey-- as far as Germany is concerned thats another story-- pretty insane the way one leader can brainwash a whole nation.
it all shows how low man can go when he wants to dominate the world and annhilate the non aryan.
Its easy to say wnat should or should not have happened in history but unless we are personally involved we don't have a clue about the realities of any situation.
I do think we need to know history.
