Certainly: genocide.

I quote you:

The Rape of Nanking.

Caution: graphic photos.

And guess what? The Japanese lost, ultimately, even though their behavior was not only inhumane, but inhuman. So much for your "theory".

The only thing the Japanese won was a reputation for brutality, and a place at the dock in a war crimes tribunal. Even though I believe that the bombing of Nagasaki was unnecessary and a mistake rooted in Hiroshima's obliterated communication network, when I look at these photos, Hiroshima doesn't seem so bad.
