We should bomb one last city in each Axis nation, using authentic WWII aircraft. Let's say Munich first, then Kyoto, and lastly Rome.


OK, we won't bomb them, but we should do low-level fly-bys using modern jets, shattering windows and Chinaware for miles around. A small "reminder" of what's what, who belongs where in this world, and why that is.


Then we'll call it even.

To quote something I happen to have in my clipboard for unrelated reasons...

WTF!?

I was gonna say something about Elton John, but no, this'll do just as well.

No wait. I want to be British now. Please call me "Sir American".

(Like "Sir Elton", except I don't copy people for their musical talent.)

(Like "Sir Elton", including the part about me being extremely gay in the worst possible way.) I thought so. Next, you'll probably let the son "go down on" you.

Heh. There's an old joke about this:

Two American tourists ask their Italian host what to see in Rome. He tells them not to miss the Coliseum. They come back and complain: "I didn't know you Italians keep a grudge for so long! We ask you what to see, and you just had to send us to some place we bombed during the war!"

We were on shore leave in Pearl Harbor...drunk...when two Japanese tourists approached me and my buddy, asking us where the Arizona Memorial was located. "You ought to know. Its right where you ***ing left it!" was my friends reply.

I regret it now. I should have said it before he did.

If that is the case,

Boy, your friend sure showed those dumb Japs. That'll teach them to never to visit the USA again.
They should just be lucky you didn't pull out a gun and shoot them.:rolleyes:

My dad was stationed in India of all places - beating back the Nazis from England-occupied territory. His body caught on fire and he was disfigured and disabled for the rest of his life. But, he met my Mom, an army nurse, and here I am. I remember the huge sacrifice my Dad made for my freedom. Mom did her part, too.

No, fat boy, just 1,177 stories of crewmen burned and drowning, desperately trying to escape from beneith a sinking ship, all because of Japanese imperial ambition.

Now go back to sorting your stems and leaves. It's Sunday morning- time to empty out your bong water and clean the screen. The only chores your parents don't provide for.

You're right. It's all the fault of Japanese tourists who probably weren't alive during World War Two. In fact, the movie "The Matrix" is also to blame, because it's partially based on the Japanese cartoon "Ghost in the Shell," which, despite being made in 1996, is clearly Imperial Jap propaganda.

As likely as Manifesto's assertion that Richard G and his friend beat their wives, an allegation leveled because they dare hold any bitterness toward Japan for the attack on Pearl Harbor.

I've has this sort of idea myself. Sixty years is just not long enough for nations to change their fundamental characters. Give them half a chance, and we'll be at it again hammer and tongs. A gentle reminder would probably not be a bad thing.

Political Announcer: And now, for a special announcement from the President of the United States.

Bill Clinton: My fellow Americans, I wish to address the concerns many of us have over the growing number of Japaneese military bases forming in the United States. The new Japaneese Empiror Hirohito has made our own children into fighter pilots who will soon fly to Hawaii and and attack Pearl Harbor. I spoke with Mr. Hirohito this morning and he assured me that I have a very large penis! He said it was mem, dinosauric, and absolutely dwarfed his penis which he assured me was nearly microscopic in size. My penis, he said, was most likely one of the biggest on the planet. I applaud Mr. Hirohito in his honesty. Thank you.

Yes, because India was part of the British Empire. Some of our USA boys were sent there including my dad.

Well, the Nazis didn't really get into a position to threaten India at any point of the war no matter what grandiose plans Adolf Hitler had in Summer 1942 (twin pincers through Caucasus and Egypt).

The guys who threatened India were the Japanese, who weren't Nazis.

And on another note, as this thread already contains a few bad jokes, then what about this:

What do you call it when a person burns things down?

- It's pyromania.

And what is it when a person steals things?

- It's kleptomania.

What about a person who both burns and steals?

- That's Germania.

(to borrow a line from the reparation threads that you've probably used)

Why should those people have to pay for things that they had nothing to do with.
