They were a vicious enemy. The stories about Iwo Jima just make my skin crawl. Our society would do well to remember what the US went through to win WW II.

I recently read a book called Flyboys. It was about the island north of Iwo Jima that was a radio communications outpost. On that island they not only killed our captured flyboys but committed cannibalism as well. This was the island Bush senior was shot down while bombing.

The Chinese should remember this too when they rattle their sabers.
