This may be my favorite news story of the year. Thank you for posting.
You are cruelly sarcastic. Come sit over here by me.
You can put lipstick on whatever it is that Michelle Malkin is, but it still does not make whatever that thing is human.
A childrens chorus can make anything sound beautiful…
All things sick and cancerous,
- All evil great and small,*
- All things foul and dangerous,*
- The Lord God made them all.*
Two ethnic groups which vote heavily GOP today. Coincidence? I think not. Clearly the European Axis Powers have infiltrated this country to bring it to ruin, and we have foolishly let them.
Remember, a lot of those who are “passing” for German are actually Dutch!
Well, the Japanese attacked us, the Germans and the Italians did not.
German:
In the “Greer Incident” on 4 September 1941 the destroyer USS Greer (DD-145) was fired upon with torpedoes by German submarine U-652.
Either the casualties inflicted on USS Kearny by German submarine U-568 on 17 October 1941 (11 KIA)[6] or the sinking of the USS Reuben James by U-552 on 31 October 1941, (115 KIA)[7] might be considered the first American naval losses of World War II. The United States was neither officially involved in the war at the time nor did the incidents cause them to declare war.
US v. German:
The first American hostile action against Axis forces was on 10 April 1941, when the destroyer USS Niblack attacked a German U-boat that had just sunk a Dutch freighter. USS Niblack was picking up survivors of the freighter when it detected a U-boat preparing to attack. The Niblack attacked with depth charges and drove off the U-boat. There were no casualties on board USS Niblack or the U-boat. By coincidence, USS Niblack was later in the same convoy as USS Reuben James when that ship was sunk, and picked up survivors from USS Reuben James.
The first American hostile action against Axis forces that resulted in physical destruction was on 14 September 1941, when USCGC Northland destroyed a German weather station in northeast Greenland. The action was based on an agreement with Danish Ambassador to the United States Henrik Kauffmann in April 1941 to patrol the Danish island.
So if an abortion is successful it was obviously God’s will. It would be blasphemy to say otherwise - but we shouldn’t judge that blasphemy because it was also God’s will - on the otherhand that judging would be God’s will too…
So why, exactly, is this guy involved with governing and law? Shouldn’t he just sit back and see what God makes to happen.
( And yes, God wanted me to write this )
Joe McCarthy for 2017.
I have here in my hand a list of 205 names that were made known to the Secretary of Defense as being members of the Democratic Party and who nevertheless are still working and shaping policy in the Defense Department…
“The Japanese” didn’t attack us. JAPAN did. Upon such small distinctions hang the fates of many.
Also, there were quite a few Germans and Italians interred. Just not ALL of them because of their ancestry. Usually, they were American Nazis or Fascisti.
Were any interred because of their ancestry? Because that was the Japanese-American experience. AFAIK, none of the Nisei rounded up were known subversives or members of antithetical parties. But I must admit I haven’t looked into it.
Poor wording on my part. I was trying to say that only some Germans and Italians were interred, and for the most part it had nothing to do with their ancestry (as far as I know). Also that unlike the Japanese, their ancestry was not used to inter everyone who had German or Italian ancestry.
Which was a good thing for my mother’s family, since PopPop was Italian and Grandma was German.
And a good thing for our forces. Being limited to soldiers of pure Brit, Polish, or French (Is there such a thing? It’s a small continent.) ancestry would leave us at a disadvantage.
And Nisei troops kicked serious ass, too, like African-American troops, DESPITE it all.
This is catching me up short every time. The past tense of intern is interned, right? Not interred? Because if interred means both buried and put in a camp that’s… well, rather fitting, I guess.
“Intern” is an indentured servant. “Intern” is an involuntary guest of the host government; like a POW without benefit of a declaration of war. Pay’s the same, though the latter are more likely to be shot in contract disputes. Clear?
<sigh>
It’s been a very long week. I’ve been copy-editing engineerese into English all week, and my brain has gone all melty.
YRC. Remember the cover. Richard Kotoshirodo juxtaposed with Mohamed Atta (9/11 terrorist). She’s clearly drawing a parallel: either that we were right to do what we did back in '42 or that we need to do again.
