People are still human and when you are in the middle of action accidents happen. It's easy to say what you are saying while you are sitting comfortably at home but it's different when there are bullets flying by you.

im not trolling at all, and i don't hate america i want to make that very clear.

but it's a matter of perspective, it's your team always the good guy and the enemy the bad guy?

There is a sense that they can dish it out but they can't take it back.

How is retaliating for Pearl Harbor a bully act?

i'll explain it through play ground politics,
it would be like me going on over and destroying your sand fort and you retaliating by killing me and my whole family and as bonus leaving my home full of radiation to **** up our future generation.

But see to point this would be anti-patriotic from an american standpoint, but really my point is you have to dehumanize one party to justify the atrocites of war and im very much against that.

but my beef with america is the hypocrisy. somehow they are the exception every rule. they can bomb but not bombed.

Im not saying im against this btw but from a logical standpoint it's very hypocritical.

The bomb was dropped on Hiroshima because the Japanese islands were defended by 2 million strong in preparation of an inevitable pending invasion by America and its allies.

Japan was not even close to the capacity of invading the US, at that time.

is this a joke? "destroying your sand fort" does not account for the 2,400 innocent American soldiers the Japanese killed that day. If you wanna surprise bomb us, we're gonna surprise bomb you. That's not hypocritical in any way. Now if you wanna talk about Iraq or other things, you would have a point.

Isn't about being a victim for me. My concern for my friends and my own just trumps my concern for people I've never met and will likely never meet. Simple as that.

No, but I have heard stories from friends that were stationed overseas.

You do realize we stayed out of WWI and WWII till we had a reason to enter it right?

The word bully is a little misplaced here.

This ^.
Also, Japan may have looked impressive from a technological standpoint, but they were still living in the ****ing dark ages where their leader was perceived to be a god. I'm sure everybody knows about the suicidal tactics employed by Japanese soldiers; they would ram their own planes into U.S. battleships if they had no other options.
The bloodshed would have been HORRENDOUS! It would have taken months to secure the island.

You don't have to be there to know what it's like.

PTSD is post-traumatic stress disorder. You can look it up if you want. The U.S. has a Government Website specifically for people to go to learn about PTSD, if that doesn't tell you how bad it is. It's run by the U.S. Department of Veteran Affairs.
