  1. Re:What God will say to them on 60 Years Since Hiroshima · · Score: 2, Insightful

    You need to read up on your history. Look at the number of Japanese soldiers who surrendered on every island that we took in the pacific. The numbers are very low. Many islands, with garrisons of 20,000 Japanese soldiers would often only surrender a dozen or so men. The Japanese were FANATICAL, and DID NOT SEE SURRENDERING as an option as long as there were standing soldiers. You live in the west. You have a much different view of death and honor than the imperial japanese army did. Its just like with American troubles in the middle east right now. Americans have a hard time understanding how a man can strap bombs to himself and blow himself up. Its because Muslims have a much different idea of what death means than the west does. And lets not forget, the Japanese committed horrible atrocities all throughout the Pacific and in China.

    You can make it the point...the reason they dont outsource could be because their profit margin is so huge and they dont see a need to do so.
