Yeah, I mean we only had slaves and concentration camps for the Japanese -- what do they matter?
So you're saying that we haven't improved at all since then? Yes, we have a dark history, and we're right to regret it, but this generation shouldn't have to bear the sins of the father. We're improving -- we're not perfect, and never will be, but we're improving.
Meanwhile, the other side is still sawing the heads off civilians and publically celebrating when they do it. Saddam was gassing Kurds this decade (and would have continued to if he hadn't been removed); insurgents are deliberately blowing up civilians and rescue workers right now. Don't put our troops in the same boat as them.
