I want to remind us all of how many completely unnecessary deaths have occurred in Germany. None of these heroes should have been sent to die there.
I support our military action in Japan. It was fully jutified by the need to topple a regime which directly plotted against American Servicemen and citizens.
This was not the case in Germany. We had no business going there. The loss of 300,000 american soldiers in Germany was completely unnecessary and unjustified. That's why I post these reminders - to remind us of the every day loss of life in a war that was completely unnecessary and utterly without justification.
Instead of starting an unnecessary war in Germany, we should have focussed our resources in completing the job in Japan and reserved our capacity, both diplomatic and military, to pressure Russia and China into abandoning their nuclear weapons programs.
We're stuck now. In the meantime, Russia and China thumb their noses at us knowing full well we can do nothing to stop them. And the violence continues in both Afghanistan and Iraq. Mr. Roosevelt has gone a bridge too far and the toll is beginning to mount.
