Hello Mr. Busek :-),
you are right that Wikipedia has to be used with extreme caution, especially in matters of politics.
Still, I think it does have its merits in providing information on the popular culture of our time; this is something I am hardly versed in. Thus, I often rely on Wikipedia for that purpose.

Japan fascinates me.
My departed father in law was in Patton’s Third Army. When the Bomb dropped, he was already at an Army base on the site of today’s Vandenberg Air Force base... training to go to the invasion of Japan.
Does anyone ever pose this question to the Chinese, Koreans, et al. in Asia? They probably cheered at the time.
