Eventually they will justify Pearl Harbor with something like this:

Japan only attacked Pearl Harbor, because the racist Americans supported British Colonialism in Asia.

Anger? In a time of war, perhaps. It wasn’t because of anger.

Ummmmm, actually it’s worse than that. Millenniums think the Germans attacked Pearl Harbor.

hell, a lot of “Millenials” probably think that Pearl Harbor was a false flag operation conducted by evil capitalists....

EF** him. Watch some of the combat/amateur footage coming out of Syria. The Russians are using low level nukes against ISIS. We are not the only users of nukes.

Don’t you know? In war you are supposed to have warm and fuzzy feelings for the enemy, that’s what all good liberals do.

If it’s absolutely necessary to kill them, you should immediately apologize and feel really bad about it.

Yes. Apparently they think life is a children’s game ( too much drugs and too little real learning — blame the public screwls and lack of parenting?)

Used in anger?

Yeah, that attack on Hawaii and Pearl Harbor made a lot of people angry.

Then, there was the treatment of many prisoners of war held by the Japanese. The Japanese were not very nice.

If Japan or Hitler had managed to develop the atomic bomb first, is there really any doubt they would have used it?

25 years ago I sat across the aisle from a gentleman who was on a ship awaiting orders to be part of the first invasion of mainland Japan in the summer of 1945. He and the others knew it was a suicide mission. He would start crying when the issue of not dropping the bomb was brought up since the bomb saved his life. He felt depressed that there were idiots would prefer that he had died for political correctness.

Not just anger but righteous anger over the brutality of the Japanese at Pearl Harbor and the rest of the war...

Brian Williams sez, “So there I was, riding a bomb casing, doing a bit part as a favor in a little movie called Dr. Strangelove”

I am surprised these Lefty nitwits are not obsessed at the fire bombing of Dresden. That bombing caused people to boil alive on the super heated streets. An estimated, 35,000 to 135,000 civilians died from the bombings. Of course, the Germans sent the V1 buzz bombs and V2 rockets into Britain killing 6,184 innocent civilians and injuring 17,981. The Dresden bombings were a retaliation to the V weapons attacks.

Sorry Newsbusters, but this is a perfectly appropriate use of “in anger” (as opposed to in practice or in a test).
