Should the USA have paid reparations to Japan for their bombing of Pearl Harbor?

[NNN0LHI]

Well Dems and Rethugs agree that the Iraqis must pay to rebuild their country that Bush Shocked and Awed into smithereens.

Who thinks this idea is going to work?

Are they all nuts?

2. Shouldn't we be paying Germany?

They're the ones that bombed Pearl Harbor

5. Forget it he's on a roll

3. this is completely nuts. just as is the prattling about how the iraqis have to take

responsibility for their own security, etc., etc. they didn't ask us to bomb the hell out of their country, destroy their infrastructure and screw up their entire system, and occupy them. the arrogance of such statements ought to be standard commentary every time they are uttered.

4. In this case, we should not have paid reparations to Japan.

After all, unlike Iraq, Japan attacked us first by bombing Pearl Harbor.

6. Asking the Iraqis to rebuild their country

all by themselves after we have destroyed is unfair and pugnacious of those who suggested it.

7. So my neighbor came over to my place last night...

good a great big poop in the middle of the floor, ripped out my plumbing, punched holes in my walls, ripped out my electric lines and set my dog on fire.

He's now telling me that I have to fix it all because it's my house. Oh and that he's sorry about the dog, that was a mistake. He thought it was a cat.
