One more question.......

Do you think it is ignorant to hold ones' generation responsible for the actions of previous generations before them? or just smart military planning?

What we did to Japanese in America is nothing compared to what they did to American, and all other soldiers in WWII. That's not something I will soon forget, I've lost to many to Japan. That's why I still call them that, I don't mean todays Japan but I mean WWII Japans, their's so much I could call them.

The only thing I could say that makes me feel better. They made the biggest mistake EVER making us go into to war. I guess Germany almost turned on them for what they did. Hitler did against that though.

That and,

They failed their mission at Pearl Harbor really.

Who did you lose? Are you alright talking about this subject?

Yes, 9/11 and the middle east always pops right into my mind when I discuss this. The thing that worries me the most is that the same thing could so easily happen again.
