Quote by: ruksak A nation, tribe, clan or family cannot extend the privilege of valuing the lives of the enemy above that of their own. You do not sacrifice your own as a means to save enemy lives. To do so is weak and a hallmark of a spineless, soon to be defunct, society.

No, that sounds more like a cave man group to me... a tad primitive. This mentality is what causes such devisions in your own nation as we speak. But suit yourself.... it's not like I really care about the defenses you can think of, because it has already come to pass, and the explinations were already given back then.... I know the justification for it, and to a degree I understand.....

But a big chunk of me feels the targets were just plain evil, and as your above logic confirms.

Y'all are throwing lives around with no more regard than to treat them as numbers. As Triad said, "140,000 vs 10,000, its not right". He basically said, and you seem to support this slanted view,

I'm sorry, was that a racist remark?

"pffft whats 10,000 lives". This isn't a numbers game. These are lives. Us against them. Nature reflecst this. The human animal is no different than the quadrupedal animal in respect to value for its clan over opposing clans.

If you wish to continue living as a quadrupedal animal, be my guest. It's not like me complaining after the fact is gonna do anything about it, nor do you seem to actually want to learn from this slightly.... to me it seems as though you're kinda gun ho to go drop a few more.

To deny America of this instinct is smug, ignorant and all together blind to the ways of the world. Think of all the generations that spawned from these soldiers that compose his estimated 10,000 casualties. The soldiers that would have died, their children. Their children's children. Their children's children's children. NONE WOULD HAVE EXISTED! Gone! Because we valued enemy lives above our own because they stood a potential loss higher in regard to only numbers.

yeah, them's the breaks.

you speak of devotion on protection of your own culture and kind.... just remember that when you hear the next list of deaths from suicide bombers and ask why they keep killing your people. I suppose once you figure that out, it would be a good idea to just drop a few nukes on Iraq and Afghanistan because it'll be easier?

Apparently you don't see the connection, either that or you're just not to that level of conversation just yet, no offense, to me it seems you're still on this mentality that killing is progress in some manner.

How many Canadians would be an acceptable loss under the same given circumstance? 10,000? 50,000? 100,000? At which point do the numbers balance out to a point whereas it cannot be viewed as acceptable?

*sigh* and you still seem to go on as if there were never any other options. As I have already explained to you my solutions and methods.

So what makes you better than the generals who gave the commands to the crew of the Enola Gay? With your repeated sentiments of "death to the Americans", how can you spit on the grave of the crew of the Enola Gay when you yourself speak death to people that do not deserve it? You write us all off as deserving. You will have no sympathy, even for those Americans whom speak the same sentiment as you?

What makes me better then the generals? the simple fact that I have their mistakes to learn from.

When did I say "Death to Americans?" ~ I said country's distruction.... oh, but I suppose that get's misconstruded like how Iran said they wanted Israel's distruction, but didn't actually mean anything towards "Death."

I'm just someone who believes in Karma... or whatever there maybe that causes universal justice to work as it does. I know I'm not immune to this, and my day will come..... but I know that when I die, I didn't drop a nuke on 140,000 civilians who didn't diserve such treatment.

Think about it.... which you still haven't responded to.... what would you considder it as, if a terrorist came along and blew up Huston with a nuclear device on some random sunny day?

Would you think of it as an evil act apon helpless and innocent civilians?

Perhaps now you see why I have no sympathy for the US? Unless you face the wrongs of your past, you will never avoid it in the future.... and for me to pat you guys on the back and say "there there, it's ok, those evil bastards." ~ Would be hypocritical in my priciples, as you just justified the same actions.

Why would they want to risk all their people in a ground warfare on US soil, if all they gotta do is send a couple of terrorists in with nukes and then blow a few cities up? Then they tell you to surrender or they will do more...... sound familiar?

Then what do you do? You can't just launch nukes all over the planet at an emeny that has no state..... and everybody else in the world sure as hell won't tollerate you guys twirling off nukes left and right, therefore, if the terrorists don't nuke you off, the rest of the world will unless you surrender. It's kinda a crappy situation if you ask me.

And if your allies see them attacking you in historically the same fasion as you guys attacked Japan, minus the Bombers.... then who are you gonna get help from?

You see where your stunning hypocrisy is combating the validity of your death wish to us? Can you honestly say Japan wasn't deserving of having war brought to their land, as they had brought to ours?

Eye for an eye logic would dictact that you would push them back, then bomb the snot out of their biggest navel yard and surrounding area..... Not nuke two cities.... can't you get this? They we're already on the verge of defeat, and before they even attacked you guys in Pearl Harbor, they knew you guys had a big fleet.

Surrender was inevitable.
