The Japanese were under the mistaken impression that a formal declaration of war had been presented to the opposing government. To compare the Japanese to the theocratic or anarchist religious fanatics now sneaking around with bombs to blow up innocent civilians defames the Japanese and unduly credits the terrorists. To believe we will defeat the terrorists in the same manner and with the same methods we defeated the Japanese, or that the war will ever end, or that there is anyone who can execute a surrender document that would bind all the splinter groups of competing fanatics to stop committing acts of terror would be simple minded. -- ______m___~¿õ___m_________________ |

Would you rather he said Nips? Anyway, Nice tactic! The Japanese used an organized military force representing an established government to attack another organized military force representing an established government. The Japanese were under the mistaken impression that a formal declaration of war had been presented to the opposing government. The Japanese soldiers were fighting for their God, the Emporer. Does that sound familiar. Organized military against organized military fighting is over in the world. It will be organized militaries against terrorist organizations. To compare the Japanese to the theocratic or anarchist religious fanatics now sneaking around with bombs to blow up innocent civilians defames the Japanese and unduly credits the terrorists. Really, how? To believe we will defeat the terrorists in the same manner and with the same methods we defeated the Japanese, or that the war will ever end, or that there is anyone who can execute a surrender document that would bind all the splinter groups of competing fanatics to stop committing acts of terror would be simple minded. You have to kill the enemy. We have to kill the terrorists! |
