Did you see how many died in one three month period in 1945?

Question

On June 22, 1945, the World War II battle for Okinawa officially ended; 12,520 Americans and 110,000 Japanese were killed in the nearly three-month campaign.

And I bet not one Marine or any other soldier was put on trial based solely on the accusations of our enemy.

Answer 1

Yeah they died. And on the homefront there were homefront commandos, Rosie the Riveter, war bonds, gas rationing, tobacco rationing, meat rationing, rubber rationing, metal rationing, grease recycling, $1-a-yr CEO salaries, victory gardens, and a draft.

Today the armchair warriors say "WELL I PUT A STICKER ON MY SUV! WHAT MORE CAN A MAN DO?"

Answer 2

What was any Marine or GI supposed to be put on trial for? Taking land away from the Japanese invaders. Killing Japanese soldiers who were brainwashed into not being able to surrender. What would the "trial" have been for? We didn't make our prisoners march hundreds of miles without feeding them properly or giving them sufficient water (remember the Bataan Death March). We did not have labor camps where only the guards got food.
So, just what you idiotic moron, were the US Army or USMC supposed to be tried for?

Answer 3

Liberals were nothing more than a small fringe group then, my dear. And the thought of political correctness had yet to be hatched from a single socialist mind. That's how we won that war...

Answer 4

times have changed, haven't they. now i see that the US invited the Chinese to watch war games. why not just invite them into the CIA and tell them who all the intellignece agents are in China so they can give them a big hug.

Answer 5

Preach on Sister.

Answer 6

They weren't killing pregnant women, either

Answer 7

There is no basis for comparison.
