  Yes, yes they absolutely are.

  I mean, it is kinda remarkable that people did volunteer to fly what were essentially
  human-guided bombs.

  Not even for a religion at that, but for what was basically a last-ditch delaying action in the
  Pacific theater. They knew they were fucked- their infrastructure was gone, their ace pilots all
  dead, carriers all sunk. They did it just to slow down the Americans, just by a little longer.

  Anyways what is the song source on this? It's not actually in this scene of the anime.

  yes they are, Lot of japanese think they literally did nothing wrong during the war. Even the
  recent previous mayor of Tokyo is a famous war crime denier of stuff like the rape of nanking.
  Some of their top government officials even now describe japan as a victim of ww2 and after the
  recent elections it's a real possibility of the return to state Shintoism(emperor worship) and a
  independent military.
  >>3125492
  they were volunteers from the books I've read on it they had so many volunteers that they did not
  have enough planes, near the end their were cases of large kamikaze squadrines consisting of
  dozens of planes getting absolutely rekt by late war allied planes racking up massive kill ratios
  since almost all the jap pilots were brand new kids or old men at that point. It's not surprising
  considering how fanatical they were near the end of the war and what they got fed about Americans
  wanting to kill them all family included.

  Yeah I guess "volunteer" is the wrong word, but it's not like they were necessarily held at
  gunpoint to go fly the things.

  They were convinced by people (who conveniently didn't have to get in one themselves) that their
  deaths would bring honor to their families & the emperor and whatnot. Some people did really
  drink that kool-aid pretty hard.

  >Lot of japanese think they literally did nothing wrong during the war.

  After reading a book on their war crimes I'm not buying it.
  Reading about some of the shit literally made me nauseous. Like anally raping captured allied
  soldiers with swords and setting women on fire, absolute inhuman shit.

  The only reason I give the average citizen a pass is because their government was basically taken
  over in the years leading up to the war by fanatics who believed the Japanese were the chosen
  people, and believe that once the war had started they would win because of their divine nature
  and never have to answer for any war crimes because they would be the victors.

  Anyone at any level in the government who was like "hey man that shit's not cool" was either
  ostracized or outright driven out of office or killed.

  They have government officials like ishihara saying the rape of nanking is a chinese created lie.

  Look into unit 731 if you want to learn about the pinnacle of modern war crimes, they were korean
  based and they committed extreme experiments on prisoners like replacing blood with saline
  solution, I hear they got of scot free since some of the shit they did advanced medical research
  massively and they turned it over.

  They are constitutionally bound to maintain only a force for self defense. That's why their
  current military organization is called the JSDF (Japanese Self Defense Force).

  The current rightwing government, led by Shinzo Abe as the PM, is pushing for a more
  nationalistic strain of government that includes a revocation of Article 9, which is the bit that
  commits the nation to a self-defense force only with no offensive capabilities.

>> [_] Anonymous 08/01/16(Mon)22:44:30 No.3125577

  The Reason that they have military restrictions is because the US wrote them into the Japanese
  constitution. However now the US wants them to fight China and is trying to get them to change
  their constitution and build a bigger army.

  Samefag. So it's not necessarily the UN. To maintain an "offensive" military they would have to
  repeal that part of the constitution, which is difficult because while the rightwing party is
  currently in power, they do not have the overwhelming majority needed to ratify that kind of
  change (I think--don't quote me on that). Plus, there's a lot of opposition to it from more
  doveish sectors of politics and of society, notably the Democratic Party of Japan.

  >>3125496
  Feh, why do people fight and die for their country? Seriously--not trying to sound nihilistic
  here, but that strain of nationalism and pride isn't really that different from what other
  countries have, although it's possibly made a bit worse because of the type and culture of
  society Japan has (read: somewhat less receptive to criticism of authority).

  As for current geopolitics, I think that's an overstatement. There are *certain bombastic, almost
  billionaire elements* of US politics that want America to withdraw from their current position of
  strength in Asia and have the local countries, Japan, SK, Taiwan, shoulder more of the burden of
  defense. Leaving alone the fact that this will drastically weaken our influence abroad, it also
  destabilizes the region because it means Japan, as well as SK and others, are more heavily armed
  and (as history has proven) more likely to engage in conflict with each other as well as with
  China.

  >why do people fight and die for their country?
  The entire concept of kamikaze is something that you would only really ever get from a place with
  a culture like japan's, The extreme emphasis on honor and duty in their culture is pretty alien
  to the other cultures, these people still commit suicide even today to try to preserve honor. If
  you sincerely believed that by yourself you could save your other countrymen by giving yourself
  up wouldn't you? The idea of being able to trade yourself for hundreds of the enemy is very
  appealing even if in practice it was not that effective since the US had overwhelming air power,
  I guess you could say manpower wise it was a success but not a game changer in any real sense.

  >>3125585
  The US really needs to maintain a military presence considering china is already trying to bully
  their way into taking over islands and sea zones, Having real support from the locals would put
  much less strain on the US. The suggestion that SK, Taiwan, or Japan would ever fight each other
  is ludicrous considering they all depend on the US for protection and all have two distinct
  common enemies in NK and China while sharing democratic governments which there enemies lack.
  What would be more ideal is to have a NATO like alliance along with having actual militaries to
  support each other.

  No, I agree with you. But I don't think that arming each of the countries is a solution; not to
  reduce complex geopolitics to platitudes, but when all you've got is a hammer, everything starts
  to look like a nail.

  As for fighting each other, I don't think the concept is too far off. Historically, none of these
  nations really get along with each other. I don't think they'd go all out into war, but
  skirmishes and minor destabilizing conflicts are likely and they will add up over time. US
  withdrawal from the region means that in the best case, those countries will form alliances with
  each other, but WWI has proven what happens when you've got a spiderweb's worth of alliances in a
  volatile region.

  The interesting thing about China's actions is that it's having the effect of uniting American
  allies in the region against it. Ironically, I suspect the real reason why China is saber
  rattling is because it wants to distract its domestic population from economic gloom and
  widespread social issues (gender imbalance, rich and poor, corruption, lack of human rights). The
  specter of a "US threat" helps rally people to nationalism, but the side effect is pissing off a
  bunch of China's neighbors and creating a new international headache.

  And that's the thing, I don't think that view really takes into account the net effect. You're
  not looking at the long game here. A war would be bad for everyone, including the US, considering
  we rely so heavily on Asia for the bulk of our manufacturing. Stability there means stability at
  home. It's like paying taxes: you don't see the immediate benefit very clearly, but it's
  definitely there.

  >>inb4 nihilistic oh I don't pay taxes, no benefit, muh freedums.

  Anyways, we had the same thinking at the outbreak of World War 2: oh it's not our problem, why
  should we get involved? America First. America is great. They wanna fight, it's not gonna impact
  us. We've got OCEANS.

  And if we withdraw from the world because, hey, we don't see any immediate benefit, then guess
  who's in a prime position to fill the void? A country like China or Russia. That's something I
  don't think *certain billionaire loving parts of the US* don't understand; you're destroying
  America's place in the world by reneging on NATO and withdrawing from Asia. And all for what? An

  The thing with the Chinese is they don't give much of a shit about any of those for the most
  part, as long as they are fed your fine. China has historically always had a massive lower class
  and most of them lack real concepts of western ideals. China tends to run on a cycle of long
  lasting peace then having a internal power struggle then another era of peace.

  >But I don't think that arming each of the countries is a solution
  This is were we differ, I would advocate for giving japan nuclear weapons as I heavily believe in
  the MAD doctrine keeping things stable and being responsible the the complete lack of any wars
  between global powers since ww2. Well at least to countries that are not extremists such as Iran
  or Israel which both can't be trusted. Iran for being run by fundamentalists and Israel for the
  war crimes they keep committing.
  >>3125613
  keeping asia stable is in US interest considering our heavy trade ties. US world police works

  We shouldn't have gotten involved in WW2. Let Stalin fight Hitler, and Hitler fight Stalin, we

  Should have stayed totally neutral, and grabbed pieces up in other places.
  As for this Asian reliance, that's an insane policy. You are relying on something outside of you
  you have no control over. That's not good. That's never good. It's why working people are so
  stressed all the time. They rely on that paycheck. Compare it to financially independent people
  who are far more relaxed.
  When we're in a position where we need somebody other than ourselves, when we're one of the
  biggest countries on earth in terms of land mass and population, we really need to take a step
  back and look at what's wrong with this picture, especially considering our self reliance for

  I want to counter that point about MAD. Remember MAD rests on some basic principles: 1. each
  country wants to survive. 2. each country has things to lose. 3. neither country wants to back
  down. What if you have a country where those don't apply? North Korea is a country that really
  has nothing to lose. If SK were to try and arm itself with offensive capabilities, North Korea
  would just start bombing because it knows it'd be in a game it can't win.

  MAD is economically unfeasible over the long term. It's the classic prisoner's game: as soon as
  you realize it's the final two rounds, everyone tries to undercut the other. And honestly, if MAD
  really worked, then here in the US everyone would have guns and there would be no crime. It's the
  same principle in microcosm.

  We're currently not in MAD because we are not directly or overtly threatened by Russia. Remember
  the Cuban Missle Crisis? That was an example of MAD because both of us had guns to each other's
  temples. In this case, while there's the lingering threat, nobody's willing to escalate and push
  to the Nash equilibrium needed for a MAD scenario.

  I'm gonna build on my original idea. What we could have done is invaded South America. Let Europe
  work Europe out, and totally colonize the crap out of that whole land mass.
  Can you imagine what a huge player that would have made us? Unstoppable. They couldn't fight
  back, they had zero military potential. Nobody could have stopped us, they were all busy fighting
  eachother.
  At the end of it, we would have absolutely no enemies whatsoever in the eastern hemisphere
  connected to us by land. They would have to cross the waters to get at us, and that takes a lot
  of preparation, well enough time for us to see it coming.

  not really comparable to the concept of a nuclear conflict as MAD by definition means if you
  attack you will die 100%, with guns there is always shoot first you win examples.

  >We're currently not in MAD because we are not directly or overtly threatened by Russia
  both the US and Russia have missiles that can reach each other at this moment, well enough to
  destroy the vast majority of each nation, the issue with the CMS is that having missles that
  close in large numbers violates MAD by creating the opportunity to neutralize your enemies
  offensive capability in a overwhelming, almost no warning, first strike. That is why it was such

  That is exactly what life is. People benefit mutually via self interest. I work my job, I get my

  gonna fight Japan and Japan only and it'll be great" because Germany would (and did) declare war
  on the US. Germany was defending its ally.

  >>Again. This is built from self interest. If we can make it on US soil, we should do that AND
  take the tax money on the side. If we're already doing it on US soil, tariff the living daylights
  out of foreign goods.
  This...this doesn't work economically. The price of everything would inflate dramatically because
  it's simply not possible to make everything here and maintain current prices. Think about it on a
  smaller scale: why don't you do everything yourself? Why don't you live off the land? You must
  engage in trade because it's simply not possible to make and do everything yourself and keep it
  all enclosed. Yeah, you can do everything yourself, but it's either going to take a long time or
  not be as good as a specialized expert, which is why we have towns where some people become
  expert ironsmiths and expert tailors and expert accountants. Take it back to the big picture, and
  it's why we have countries that specialize in certain parts of the process.

  >>That is exactly what life is. People benefit mutually via self interest. I work my job, I get
  my paycheck.
  You're arguing the same side as I am. It's to both my benefit and my boss's benefit if I work. I
  get money, he gets shit done. Let's flip it over: It's both to my benefit and, for instance,
  South Korea's benefit if I protect them; they give me access to their market and their capital,
  and I give them protection in exchange. We both win. Nobody has to lose. That's the point.

  I will pay money to see a source that says Germany send soldiers to Japan, because I have not
  found any source that says we fought anyone but japs in the pacific. At most, there was the
  occasional German U-Boat in the pacific. I have never read one account that said German soldiers
  were present in Japanese territory fighting alongside them. Germany's declaration of war was
  nothing more than that, a declaration. We beat Japan, we super consolidate the western
  hemisphere, and we strike a peace deal with whoever won Europe.

  This does work economically, I'm living it, and the working class lives it every single day. We
  were doing peachy until the free trade fanaticism. Unemployed people make for hungry people makes
  for riots, and you can't employ people in jobs that only exist in China.

  To build further on my point, we can and should do it in our own borders, because we were
  definitely leading the world in technology. They needed us, we never needed them. Free trade
  deals were purely and totally humanitarian, not practical in any way.
