Really? What war crimes by the US are you talking about?

Here's a partial list.

Here

Good, I see that what Stoned was calling a war crime was not on the list.

It's a partial list. There are many more. You just have to care enough to find them.

Well then I will ask you directly. Do you think Stoned is correct to say that the nuclear bombing of Japan in WWII was a war crime?

I don't know, There are scholars on both sides of the issue. I suppose it's a personal opinion. I never really thought about it from a legal standpoint.

Okay, that is a reasonable answer to my original question. Thanks for finally answering.

It's a tough question. I can see both sides of the issue. We probably saved more lives than we destroyed with the bomb, but we opened up a can of worms with the use of nuclear weapons.

Saving lives is the key for me. And winning, I am of the belief if you're going to fight you fight to win.

Ask the vets who fought their way across the Pacific and you will get the answer which matters. It was their lives which were on the line and they will tell you that if we had invaded Japan they knew they would not come out of it alive.

Have you run out of insults, Dump? So honorable to you means disregarding anything that isn't positive about the US. Did you actually go to school? Did they teach you anything? Burying your head in the dirt about the many instances of American wrong-doing is plain stupid and indicates a feeble mind. I can love my country and recognize its faults at the same time. Apparently you aren't capable of multi-tasking. BTW, You were a much nicer person before you decided to go over to the dark side and join the imbeciles.

Faux Americans. If the truth would be told they have never thought we are the greatest country in the history of this Earth.
If you have to tell everybody how wonderful you are, you aren't so wonderful, you're pathetic.
Something like Trump!
