You obviously know shit about history. The League of Nations did not decide to go to war, idiot. Countries decided independently. So Britain and France declared war in September because of the invasion of Poland. Germany went to the League of Nations in October to sure for peace.
Do you even know what "sue for peace" means? It means getting the League of Nations to declare a war not to the advantage of peace and so unlawful. But the League of Nations being a puppet of Britain and USA like the UN today, said "no". And the rest is history...
And yeah the Ghandi letter is fake since also he gave a fuck about Europe and especially Britain. I'm almost inclined to think he thought Britain neing bombed by Germany was in some way "karma" for all the attrocities Britain did in India... Oh and Ghandi went on a peace march fully knowing and ready for a violent struggle if id didn't succeed in order to kick the British out. Something which isn't often quoted but tru nonetheless.

Idk why "an historian" works, I don't remember how it was explained. I do remember that is has something to do with the way some people pronounce the 'H'.

India didn't hate the British? HAHAHAHAHHAHA. Nah it's not like the British did attrocities and war crimes in India or anything. Ghandi and all the Indians of that tiume HATED AND WERE READY TO KILL BRITISH.
The peace march was just a prelude to an armed conflict. Ghandi was ready to lead an armed rebellion to make India independent if the peace march did not work. Ghandi said this himself and sorry but secretly I bet Ghandi wanted Germany to win the war because of all the horrible things Britain did in India...

Yes. But not on that scale. The scale America did it was very comparable to anything Hitler did.
As a famous British politician said after the war: "If we'd have lost the war, we would be the ones on trial for war crimes". Hey he admitted it so you can fuck off trying to justify killing nearly half a million elderly men, women and children who just wanted to live their lives. Two wrongs don't make a right...especially when you went all out trying to be the "good guys" fighting for "freedom and humanity" against the "evil Nazis/Fascists".
America still remains as the only nation to use nukes on another country and on the civilians population to boot.
Here's a fact which the USA gov hides when it can. The two atom bombs were both detonated to coincide with the Japanese children going to school so they would be out in the open = max casualties.
You targetted the school children. FUCKING SHAME ON YOU. Such a "good" nation...FUCK OFF.

No. The Japs invaded China and slaughtered tens of thousands of civilians. They would literally either assimilate or exterminate whenever they came acrossed civis. What the US did is miniscule compared to what the Japs themselves did. Google: Rape of Nanking.
>>573048665
oh, i stand corrected then
>>573047315
But to be fair..everyone was evil in WW2. Just that pisses me off when the Allies try to be the "good guys". Every major nation who fought in WW2 was responsible for war crimes..whether on a big scale or not.
So yeah not just targetting USA. Britain had Dresden and the other psycho policies of the mass-murderer "Bomber Harris". Japanese had Nanking and Burma and basically everywhere they went... Germany, it's obvious. Russia has Berlin mass rape and murder.
So yeah no good guys in WW2. It was a shitty war...hope we learned the lesson.

Leaving out the part where the NVA had already signed a peace treaty in Paris and the war was over. The US was funding the South Vietnamese government to prevent future attacks.
With the departure of Nixon and the democrat victory the following November, the first thing the leftists did was cancel that funding. President Ford begged them not to, but they did anyway, just to be able to say I told you so and blame republicans. As a direct result, the NVA resumed the attack, Saigon fell, Cambodia and Laos followed like dominoes, and 2-5 million innocent civilians were slaughtered.
TLDR; Go fuck yourself, communist.

That's bullshit. Apart from Nanking which is documented, you have no proof. Otherwise why is there just Nanking as an example?
It was a few Japanese terror units just like Grmany had with the Waffen SS.
Don't inflate the figures to try to justify the 500,000 Japanese civilians killed by the USA. Ok?
