Ethics of pilots fighting for the sides in WWII

No Galway, apparently you need to study the facts more. Or take the blinders off. I'm not sure which prompted your response, you are usually not like that. You know that eugenics and racism were not exclusive to the Nazis. Heck, I am sure you are itching to point out how the US sent Japanese to concentration camps (without the torture, starvation, ovens, and gas chambers but still, admittedly, racist).

First hint is chancorro. A very similar term was used by the Nazis. I think we could agree that racism was practiced by the Nazis leading up to and during WWII, yes?

This term and a perversion of the practice of Shinto (normally a very peaceful religion) led to the atrocities committed by the Japanese military. These atrocities were every bit as sickening as what was done in the Nazi concentration camps.

Now....you call it militarism. It was used and encouraged by the military, but the bottom line is that it was a belief in racial superiority. It was a view that the Japanese were superior as a race and anything done to the the lesser races was fine because they were "chancorro". The Japanese were created by the Sun Goddess (or God, I forget which). I am fairly sure that is symbolized by the rising sun, but don't quote me on it.

Your last barb made me lol. (c'mon, you're better than that)
