Do you think the Japanese lost the war?

Yes. Just as the U.S. forces lost the Battle of Bataan and the Battle of Wake Island to the Japanese when they surrendered.

However, you originally used the term "losers" in the current insulting slang as in "a bunch of losers". Neither the Americans at Bataan or Wake Island nor the Japanese at Guadalcanl or Okinawa nor the Army of the Potomac at Chancellersville nor the Army of Nortern Virginia at Gettysburg were "losers" in the insulting context that you originally used that term by any stretch of the imagination.

BTW, what is your definition of "Loser"?

I would say that a "Loser" is someone like you who takes some sort of sick pleasure in going around insulting the ancestors of his fellow Americans.

When did 'loser' become slang? You are the one creating slang definitions here and insults. Newflash for you the US won WWII. We did not cease to exist. We still wave that flag, which represents our victories and those that died to ensure our way of life. On the other hand, the rebel flag still represents a lost cause, a group of people who fought a war and lost, people that rebeled against the USA and it's flag creating a new one to fight under and lose. In my book that defines a loser. Show me how they are winners, or at lease not a loser, whiner.

Ok so I am a loser for pointing out that the rebel flag represents a bunch of losers. That's a real good one. yuk yuk.
