You are flawed.

And you are seriously radical.

To what do attribute your radicalism?

You are seriously deluded...I have no desire to know why.

Here are you Muslims of yesterday:

The 442nd Regimental Combat Team

The 442nd Regimental Combat Team is the MOST decorated unit in U.S. military history.

It was composed of mainland Japanese Americans and Japanese Americans from Hawaii. It is the 442nd that coined the motto "Go for Broke!" and upheld those words throughout their entire time of service in World War II.

The troops of the 442nd Regiment fought in eight major campaigns in Italy, France and Germany, including the battles at Belmont, Bruyeres and Biffontaine. At Biffontaine, the unit fought perhaps its most famous battle, the "Rescue of the Lost Battalion". In this bloody confrontation, the 442nd unit lost more than 800 troops to rescue 211 members of the Texan 1st Battalion of the 141st Regiment. There were also numerous accounts of individuals who displayed incredible valor while attempting to advance their positions and rescue wounded comrades.

In less than two years of combat, the 442nd Regimental Combat Team earned more than 18,000 individual decorations including one Medal of Honor, 53 Distinguished Service Crosses, 588 Silver Stars, 5,200 Bronze Star Medals, 9,486 Purple Hearts, and eight Presidential Unit Citations (the nation's top award for combat units).

Everyone should read about them...and how those dirty Japs were treated by other Americans.
