We were driving from Wooton near Woodstock to Oxford, and I was a precocious 8 year old. "What was it like," I asked the driver, doubtless some kind of prof, "at the end of the war?" He replied, "The Germans, even in retreat, were incredibly disciplined," I was struck by that.
And here's the thing, and it played a part in my decision to join up, the people of my age now were, back in the '70s and '80s, WWII vets. They'd been through it, that awful, cataclysmic fight. And here we are again, baying for blood in the name of... what?
Transgender rights? No, that's a risible rainbow smokescreen. How about massive amounts of money flowing to and from the MIC to our beloved rulers of whatever party. Pay up, serf, so we can be richer and you'll get the consolation prize of a tranny bathroom. Or die, at the front.

The Germans and the Japanese were incredibly disciplined. Incredibly.
The Dutch and the French bitched about us after we saved their lives and countries, wanting us to rebuild them.
In contrast, in both Germany and Japan, soldiers and civilians both started cleaning up and fixing things as soon as the fighting passed them by. They both self-policed, helped in distribution of supplies with little theft (in comparison to the previous countries) and overall just accepted it and dealt with it.
Which is weird, not on the German's part, as they were surprisingly to anyone who hasn't studied US history (we should have sided with the Kaiser in WWI... :) ) just like us, but with accents. Weird is the Japanese, as they were pert near the closest thing to real space aliens we have ever warred with, well, until the Norks and the NVA and the ChiComs and the Islamics. But Japanese? Space Aliens.
Yep, things have 'changed' and NOT for the better... sigh
Wisdom from warriors.

What I meant to say about the Japanese is that we had more in common with the pseudo-space aliens that the Imperial Japanese were than these Baalists, Mammonites and outright Satanists.
Get that. The Imperial Japanese, for all their horrid behaviours, are more human than this new breed of progressive elitist demon and devil worshipers.
Same with even the almost-absolute-worst of the Nazis. They were at least somewhat redeemable, or at least we could kill them.
Absolutely sick world we live in now. Where Child sexual slavery is considered 'the norm' by the elites and powerbrokers, while the quaint antiquated concept that children should not be sexualized or raped is considered by many to be 'in the wrong.'
The groundswelling, when it happens, is going to be horrid in its power scope. Not since ancient times has Evil been so powerful and so pervasive. And the fight against it will shake the world.
Smedley Butler was right and getting more right all the time.
The US relies on continual warfare to allow laundering at a scale that can feed the Swamp.
We're almost $33 trillion in debt.
The Imperial Japanese were at least as horrid as The Worst Monsters Ever. But to acknowledge their wanton cruelty would be a Competing Narrative, and so long as THE Narrative is largely controlled by certain people, it will never be properly acknowledged in the fallen West. But the atrocities gleefully committed by the IJ are remembered in the Far East. Make no doubt of that.
That said, for my part as a genetically Han Chinese person, the Japanese as a people owe me nothing. My family lost much because of the Japanese, but no living Japanese owes me a thing. No reparations, for damned sure. I wish them well. I don’t want to see their culture, their self-worth, their souls, crushed with Eternal Guilt. I have neither desire nor need to get “revenge” on them.
Dwelling on your suffering warps your own soul. One forgives not because it’s the generous, or the polite, or even the “Christian thing to do”. One forgives because to walk around with hatred in your heart harms you and those you love. Forgiving is not forgetting, nor does it excuse what was done. It is simply forgiving. An entire culture and worldview based on clutching past wrongs to your breast as if they were monstrous anti-treasures breeds soul-sick monsters.
Even worse when it’s not your suffering but rather “your” suffering. I’m totally out of line saying this on LSP’s virtual front porch, but from my heathen perspective, the genius of Christianity is refocusing the (collective) self pity of obsessing over “my (people’s) suffering” to the suffering of Christ, which was on our behalf. The former breeds narcissistic soul-sickness, the latter inspires empathy and greatness of spirit.

How will it it be repaid, LL? Apparently nobody cares.
I'm a Jeremiah on this.
Beans, Kaiser! Bold Call!
NFO, we're clearly riding to Hell in an artisanal handwoven hand basket.
RHT, respect.
Beans, we're dealing with demons, progressively possessed people whose demonic aim is to destroy, tear down and kill.
They will be cast into fire.
Ain't that the truth, Wild.
Mike, well said, and you're not out of line at all.
