In WWII, the Japanese bayoneted Marines and Soldiers they captured.

Is your point that two wrongs make a right?

Al Qaeda today is roughly comparable in barbarism to the Japanese in 1945, yet I'm confident that we no longer tolerate barbarity in the ranks when defeating them. I'm confident of it because if it occured, it would be repeated hourly in the MSM, yet all they can find wrong are troops who put underwear on prisoners heads. If that's all our people do wrong today, then I'm not worried.

No, the point is, when you face a barbaric enemy who has previously proven to be suicidal, you shoot first.

And they started it, not us. Get it straight.

As for thsi movie you claim, I was in Germany in the 70's myself, and EVERY young German knew more of the Holocaust han I did, and even told me of the hundreds of death camps and concentration camps.

They knew of the Malmedy massacre, they knew of Rudolph Hess flying to England, and they knew of Rommell's involvement in the asasination plot against Hitler.

In fact, they knew more than I did, and I was a WWII buff growing up.

So to make some claim that the German youth didn't know, that is falling on deaf ears here, it was MANDATORY to be taught in their schools all their lives.
