Around the time the US entered WWII, Adm. "Bull" Halsey said by the end of the war, the Japanese language would be spoken only in hell. Today, he would have been brought up on charges/s

The great thing about when Adm. Halsey said that, I'm sure every US Admiral and General agreed with him.

RE: "Today, [Adm. "Bull" Halsey] would have been brought up on charges"

It has happened already and will continue.. unless we politely inform whoever to knock it off or it's going to be their political ass.

To wit,

H. RES. 419

Condemning religiously intolerant remarks and calling on the President to clearly censure and reassign Lieutenant General Boykin for his religiously intolerant remarks.

IN THE HOUSE OF REPRESENTATIVES. OCTOBER 28, 2003

Hint, Christianity was not the target of General Boykin's remarks.
