Not the living. Big difference. That doesn't even begin to put them on the same level. How nice of you to point this out.

Just thought there should be a little balance while we're gloating about how good we are, and how evil the Japs were, that we weren't entirely angelic at the time either.
On a purely historical note, I think it would be good if a few GIs who fought in the South Pacific would tell *everything* they saw back then. This Japanese guy confessed to what he did. I think americans who were there should be man enough to do the same, if only to set the facts straight while there are eye witnesses still alive who know what really happened.
