If you read everything I said in this thread, you will see that I mentioned how they hated the Jews, Gypsies and homosexuals and were far worse to them than they were to POW’s. That’s what I meant. I know only too well about the holocaust and my heart has always been with the Jews, those who suffered there and those today who are in danger in Israel. I was talking about the difference between the Japs and the Germans as far as the American military was concerned. Nothing else. Please read carefully that and my other posts. You are NOT correct in your assumptions here, my friend.
The poster did not say that Nazis were less sadistic but in many ways the Japanese were more widely cruel and barbaric. ON a par with what Muslims have done over the last 1300 years.
Just ask the Chinese and other asians about how Japs treated them.
