Hmmm....
Some 60plus years ago...
So let's review the bidding. The key decisions that have led to the reduction in the slaughter weren't made by us or by what passes for a national government in JAPAN. They were made by some of the people who were killing American troops just six months ago.
My point:
Yes, you dummy, the people who were doing the killing decided to stop killing...because of what the US is doing over there.
This guy's hilarious logic tells me the DUmmies are in a state of extreme PANIC. They see that in the end, the region will be better off for our intervention. This will be seen as JUSTIFICATION for the war.
That is something they simply cannot abide.
SO the spinning starts now--this was a war that shouldn't have been fought, because the results PROBABLY would have happened SOONER if we hadn't invaded.
You know what it is you're detecting from the opponents of the war? Flop sweat.
