“The US dropped more bombs on North Korea than it had dropped in the entire Pacific theater during World War II,” Fisher goes on to explain.” This carpet bombing, which included 32,000 tons of napalm, often deliberately targeted civilian as well as military targets, devastating the country far beyond what was necessary to fight the war. Whole cities were destroyed, with many thousands of innocent civilians killed and many more left homeless and hungry.”

Sounds rather intense and very difficult to perceive. Walmart through its own blog validating this alleged attack on North Korea, accusing US of War Crimes defending North Korea.

We are living in rather insane times.

We should’ve taken North Korea out in the 1950’s. Wouldn’t be the problem that it is today.

I never thought about that. I guess the left will at some point charge the USA for war crimes. They are getting everything else they want.

I am surprised obie has yet apologized to Japan in public.

I can’t hardly believe there are still American leftists who can defend North Korea with a straight face.

And yet North Korea and then China held the U. S. at bay, until a cease-fire was agreed to.

Strange the total destruction of the North, and yet we didn't walk in and claim victory.

Nut jobs one and all...

Half the nation, the fellow patriots of those slaughtered if you will, in the South are still our best friends to this day.

Forgot to mention that. There is a large Christian presence there.

When someone starts a war, which the North Koreans did by invading South Korea, what happens to them afterward is strictly their own fault.

We need to get rid of this concept of “war crimes” and go back to “winners” and “losers.”

It’s not WalMart’s blog, it’s just one of the many many sites they advertise on.

Too bad they didn’t provide some proof WalMart owns VOX.
Just writing it does not make it so.

Truman's fault! If he hadn't fired the General, we wouldn't be having any worries about either NK or the chicoms today...

Might even have avoided Nam...

“Walmart through its own blog “

Please link to the offending site so we can get the ‘rest of the story’.

The international and SK forces pushed the NorKs (and Chinese I guess) back to the north they found mass graves, men, women, children all lined up with their hands bound and all of the shot in the head.

Or maybe that was when they pushed out Japan.

My history is still ten times more accurate that theirs. lol.

32,000 tons of incendiaries.

Tokyo - one night - 200+ bombers X 10 tons = 2000 tons. There were 14 such raids, or 28,000 tons of incendiaries, mostly napalm, dropped on Tokyo alone. 67 Japanese cities were burned this way.

Let’s not count the power of Fat Man and Little Boy...

I find their numbers suspect.

So Walmart is not supposed to advertise on any site that hosts an opinion piece that someone finds objectionable? And they are responsible for all the content of the site? That’s nuts.

A simple search shows that VOX is a privately held company. Walmart may have a banner ad that pops up. Haven’t seen one yet. I’ve seen Best Buy, Yum Brands and a few others.

This is just targeted attacking of Walmart and completely misleading. Also, it is a blog. A blog is an Op Ed. Not factual news with reliable sources. Just some dudes opinion.

Not very surprising that the Beijing Outlet Mart would support China’s wartime ally and closest friend.

The best way to combat this stuff is to excerpt it on FR and then not click [or ever frequent] Vox. Pretty simple, really.

"this alleged attack on North Korea,"

The simple facts are no statement made by a committed leftist can be believed. They've lied so much in the past, nothing they say or write can be accepted as truthful. They pull numbers of out of their hindquarters.
