They don't give a damn what we do here. It's what we do there. Again, not justifying it, but bombing country after country and overthrowing governments as it suits us has repercussions. |

You're the one who opposed the America First Message, not I. Charles Lindbergh was right and Woodrow Wilson was a traitor. |

Different times. Different Circumstances. The Japanese society is built on an honor code. They are embarrassed by their past. But they have now become assimilated with the world and just want to move on. |

No. The Japanese are not embarrassed about their past a la your typical self loathing white progressive democrat who despises his ancestors for forging a civilization in the wilderness. The Japanese are quite proud at creating their splendid technological and economic miracle. Please do tell me when Japan had Islamic terror. |

For that matter, when has Korea suffered jihadist attacks? How many Syrian refugees or Somali turd worlders now live in Seoul? Very few. Koreans aren't ashamed of their culture or history and as a result, their capital remains Korean. However, London is no longer English. |

Yeah, you just support open borders immigration and nonsensical free trade. I'm calling BS. |

We've been dabbling directly in the Middle East for two Presidential administrations now, and have nothing of lasting value to show for it. It's way past time for us to wash our hands of the whole thing and walk away. |

I do not. Refer to multiple debates on the old board. I recall you and I on the same side against Whig and someone else, on that very issue, more than once. I am against Trump's wall, specifically, as ineffective and over-priced. I have never been in favour of open borders or unrestricted immigration. I am opposed to blanket bans based only on nationality or religion. Individual vetting is appropriate. Edited by nNeo, Apr 8 2017, 12:35 AM.

Blanket bans worked quite well under the 1924 quota act. |

Except now it's much harder to do. So much has been destabilized there's more risk to just walking away. It's funny that the people who were accusing me of being a traitor for opposing the invasion of Iraq are now all jumping on the bandwagon -- not meaning you -- I know you've had that view for a while. |

Hey don't shoot the messenger. I'm neither Liberal or Democrat. My Grandfather died as a Japanese POW. I was just trying add some understanding of the Japanese "Shinto" at the time, to your post. Different times. |

Cool. The Japanese were even atom bombed. They don't mope around full of self-righteous self hatred at the successful country their ancestors built a la Sweden Canada. No, Tokyo remains Japanese and free of Islamic terrorism or Mexican Narco gangs because their government has not betrayed their people in the name of cheap labor. Most Western Capital cities are occupied territory, |

Quite literally, Tokyo was burnt to the ground. Yet, their descendants will speak Japanese while the future Parisians will speak Arabic. They have the will to live. America and Europe don't.

Not keen on your doom and gloom. Tokyo wasn't actually all burnt to the ground,3/4 maybe. Tokyo was the choice of target for the bomb, but MacArthur had the fore site to keep the Emperor alive to help with the peace. Tojo took the long drop for the Emperor. Japan has a very strict immigration policy. That's the Key

No, the US is an oligarchy ruled by the establishment, a US president is a puppet which obeys to big corporations and the political establishment. Now we very clearly see that even if you obey only to corporations, like Trump, and challenge political establishment - very soon such a president is subdued and has to do what the establishment wants (division on democrats and republicans is a fake, to fool zombies that the US is a democracy). Kennedy was killed, din't forget it. So, we here and Putun perfectly understands the limits a US president can afard himself, for some time Putin was valuing even these small possible thaw whuch is available within limits of US president's authority, but as I said before - the consession to make the deal a part of which undermines Russian veto power in the UN SC - this consession must be really HUGE, it is sumply impossible right now and in general too. So, no, no deal is possible now in Syria. Putin faces a real challenge and response will be real - a defeat or fight , I am very interested what Putin will choose.

I wonder if this is reported in US news - there is a US-Russia protocol of avoidance of incidents, which demanded both sides to inform the other one of any actions in Syria. If the US did not want its strike to start WWIII the US had to inform us in advance. And knowing there were Russian pilots and staff the US military preferred to limit possibility of WWIII to reasonable level ![]() Tales, do you insist it was a deal? A genuine right strike would do what? By the way, Russia suspended participation in that protocol, it means we now may fire at any target in Syrian sky. Edited by Siberian, Apr 8 2017, 02:20 AM.
