Nishi, A new history

Submitted by Infidel (Canada), May 19, 2008 at 16:56

WW2 started in 1939, when Germany attacked Poland, and the USA did not enter the war until 1941. The reason they entered the war is because Japan attacked Hawaii, a state of the USA, in 1941. The war continued until Japan was defeated in 1945.

You certainly have a new perspective, claiming that the USA had no right to bomb a nation that had started the war with the USA. In reading your article, it becomes rather obvious that the USA should never have retaliated against a nation that attacked without reason. Are you aware of any other nations that should not retaliate when an enemy nation attacks them?

How about India, should they retaliate against Pakistan when attacked; or should they simply surrender, which according to you, that's what the USA should have done.
