I mean, I just don't see any Japanese troops fighting the terrorists in Iraq. Where are they? We saved them after WWII and this is how they repay us? ... Really, and after all we did for them after 1945.....helping to rebuild their country, their economy, and they can't even help us out now.....

What about all we did for them
before 1945? It's amazing that the Japanese have anything to do with us at all given that the only example of the absolutely most destructive man-made force ever devised was used by us, against them. And to say that we played any substantial part in rebuilding their country, especially with the implication that they could not have done as much or better without or "help," is simple bromide (see also "
Slaves to the Marshall Myth.")
And why the Japanese in particular? There are all kinds of countries that aren't "on board" with the traitor Bush's plan for fighting terrorism.
And just what do you mean by "we should have taken care of them properly?" We should have nuked them more? Made them a colony? ________?
