<<I personaly know a WWII vet who told me of shooting surrendering Japaneese , and I have heard this from several sorces .>>
Are you totally nuts? Do you have ANY IDEA what those fucking bastards did to Allied prisoners? I had a neighbour, they cut off his fucking tongue! My friend's 19-year-old uncle in Scotland was taken prisoner at Singapore, strong as an ox and three months later he was dead. YOU figure it out. My dad's cousin was a prisoner in China, he saw prisoners whose stomachs were exploded from the inside, dying in agony. And you're wringing your hands because somebody SHOT them? That was at least a humane way of putting them out of their misery.
Anyway, I see you're back to your old tricks again. A German got "punched," a Jap got "shot." BFD. Abu Ghraib, Baghram Base, Guantanamo, rendition - - these things are about TORTURE, you know, anal rape, waterboarding, dogs, suffocation, hanging by the wrists arms tied behind the back - - get the picture yet?
