That is an interesting perspective, and I think speaks to the innate evil of war itself.



I don't think I can let you off the hook on this one.

Last things first, those that attacked the Twin Towers on 9/11 certainly saw all the people that they killed as valid targets.

However, I didn't say all Japanese were legitimate targets, only that they didn't have the choice to not be Japanese, just as storm troopers didn't have the choice not to be storm troopers. That doesn't make the Japanese guilty, but just makes the storm troopers more innocent.

Has this conversation changed to a fantasy war? Ps Please tell me MM-- apart from the bombing of Pearl Harbour before 9/11 had the citizens in AMERICA been bombed as other countries had?
