Me thinks your time in the spotlight on this subject has passed.
Well said. This would of course, include the Germans. To Tat: 60 years after both "empires" of slaughter met their demise, superiority again raises its ugly head in a new form. Elitism (you will find friends here). Both cultures (Japan and Germany) have caused more death and mayhem in this world than any US unilateral, military actions. Japan owes its existance and wealth status to the US. The US asks for nothing in return. No land. No booty. Nothing. Except that you behave like civilized human beings. Now, your line of thinking is taking it too far. You are not better than the rest of us. But you are a good friend. Please don't trampel all over that.
