Bataan Death March anyone?

HBO should get their "investigative unit" out there and try to find some
archival footage of Japanese soldiers doing bayonet practice
on Chinese civilians that were bound to posts.
(I'm not sure the film ever existed, but this was in news reports
of the time, IIRC)

IIRC, the Japanese commander said that if his soldiers could force
themselves to bayonet helpless civilians, they'd have no trouble with
bayonetting enemy soldiers.

I never hear about war crimes committed by the “insurgents” in Iraq. Then we are told that there are “terrorists” in Iraq. But we aren’t supposed to connect the “insurgency” to “terrorism”.

The Left forgives the enemy for attrocities committed against US troops and civilians.

They also blooded their swords by killing American prisoners. “Flyboys.”
