VANITY

Separate headline: Shintophoabia on the Rise.

I often wonder how today's MSM would cover events from our history.

America has been calling Japanese products cheap and inferior for years . . . Pearl Harbor was just a natural response to such blatant disrespect.

The commie lib “progressive” would probably say that the USS Arizona got what it “deserved” for the way Arizona treats the illegal alien invaders flooding across our border.

It’s pretty clear that by making them gardeners and sugar cane harvesters that we shattered their self-esteem.

We BEGGED to be attacked at Pearl Harbor by the Japanese, and we are due for some real serious soul-searching.

Well, considering between 110,000 and 120,000 people of Japanese descent were interned in the U.S., maybe some fear of backlash was warranted.

Don’t Blame Japanese for Pearl Harbor—It was japanese airplanes that bombed our ships! You can’t blame the whole Island full of people. FDR must send a peace committee to work out new terms and foreign aid to the Japanese Empire.

Shintoism was a religion where the leaders of Japan as god on Earth. That’s a cause for concern. I know “America is always wrong” is the current spin on the past. They did, however, win wars back then.
