"Iraq, Nagasaki, Hiroshima 1812 AMERISKI HAS WARSKI CRIMESKIS"
Iraq: Wtf, the intelligence suggesting that WMDs exist in Iraq was anything but baseless. Iraq had already used chemical weapons in the Iran-Iraq war, and Saddam had used them against his own citizens. And the Iraqi defector who supplied the WMD intel, Rafid Alwan, seemed very credible.
Nagasaki and Hiroshima: Hiroshima was the headquarters of the Japanese Fifth Infantry Division and Field Marshal Shunroku Hata's 2nd General Army Headquarters, which commanded the defense of all of southern Japan. It was also a communications center, a storage point, an assembly area for troops, and was a military-industrial center powered by the mass-scale forced labour of Koreans known as hibakusha. The Hiroshima island of Edajima hosted the Navy Elite Academy. Kure, around 20 km from Hiroshima, was also known for a military port and navy factories. The famous giant warship, Yamato, was constructed in Kure. The material and labour for Kure came from Hiroshima.
Nagasaki was one of the largest sea ports in southern Japan and had wide-ranging industrial importance. Ordnance, ships, military equipment, and other war materials were manufactured there. The Mitsubishi Steel and Arms Works was located there. Mitsubishi produced over 10,000 Zero fighters and the battleship Musashi.
A militairy invasion of Japan had casualty (Allied AND Japanese) estimates in the MILLIONS. Civilians would have volunteered or been conscripted into the Japanese army (as seen on Owkinawa), and there was the possibility of the USSR coming down and invading mainland Japan as well. A divided Japan would seriously suck.
1812: Ok, how the hell is this a war crime? So what if the Americans burned Toronto. The British Empire burned down the White House anyways.
and My La Massacrei: Definitey a war crime. The guy who did it got punished and was to be given the life sentence. Some idiot decided to shorten his jail time, a major injustice.
But the North Vietnamese did stuff like this all the time, and nobody gave a crap. (Hue Massacre for an example) |
