Why couldn't the Japs just shoot 'em? For God's sake, how could they justify burning alive helpless POWs? How could they be so cruel? If I may quote the honorable General Robert E. Lee at Fredericksburg, "It is well that war is so terrible, or else we would grow too fond of it." I'm sorry but I am shedding a single (manly) tear as I read this. Humanity has lost its soul long ago. This is just horrible. StjJackson (talk) 17:57, 18 September 2015 (UTC)[reply]

They had a different view of life from ours. That is, they did not value it, but they glorified death instead. Just like jihadis do today. It's hard for us to comprehend, because a core value of ours is to preserve life whenever possible. Understanding that view, though, points to the way to deal with it, which is how our grandfathers did--root it out and destroy it utterly. You cannot bargain with it, reason with it, appease it. It will come after you, until you are dead (think of Reese's quote about the Terminator, it's an apt description in this case, too).

Best regards,
