Perhaps not totally relevent, but Michael Savage made a statement the other day reminding listeners that although we usually see only drab black and white photos of that era, people tend to forget that it was a technicolor day complete with blue skies and singing birds while the crematoria belched out smoke behind the wire.
One regretful thing is there are many more pictures shown of the devastation visited upon Nazi Germany than there are pictures like these showing that which was visited upon the English.
In alike manner, we see many, many more photos of the devastation delivered to Japan than we see of what they did to others.
I wish there were more discussions of the difference between life under “victorious” Japan and “victorious” Germany and the life under a victorious England and America.
A victorious Allies desired, assisted, and inspired both former enemies to become what they are today.
