#30 posts to finally ferret out the truth; you have /had no concept of how the war was conducted, how anything military works, your 'ideas' on how to force the surrender of the Japanese were childish at best, you didn't have the courage of your conviction to argue from an absolutist moralist stance.

There was no need to force a surrender in any particular timeframe.

It's morally wrong to firebomb civilians intentionally by the tens of thousands.

The good news is that any who read your twaddle this weekend will know better that to pay attention in the future to your posts on anything military.

I never claimed to have any military knowledge, I'm just looking at common sense and basic morality.

I used to feel exactly the same as you up until a few years ago regarding this topic, though. My grandfather enlisted at the age of 44, God rest his soul.

That you had none was self-evident in the first post. You did go on however.

I don't doubt it, but like your arguments today, that 'feeling' was based on emotion, not the facts in evidence.
