I like your style man, I don't agree with you so how do you rebut, 'your wrong' (notice how I quoted you with the illiteracy intact). Just about sums you up...
LOL!! Don't even attempt to bitch about having to repeat yourself. And it was out of fear. Retaliate you say? When did America launch it's retaliation & where did it strike?
I plainly implied?? I can say in all honestly that I never even thought of Japan trying to conquer Hawaii. No subliminals, no intended connotations. You let your imagination run away with yourself. Check back, I never once mentioned Japan conquering Hawaii & you know why? Because it wasn't on my mind.
What was your reaction to Japan 'attacking' American 'shit'? Before you said that the USA declared war on Germany in response to the Germans declaring war on the US. This is what entered them into WWII, so make your mind up.
Again with the debate skills, no rebuttal, just 'your plainly wrong' (check the literacy again, you're good!!)
Your investments were not in danger? Again, ask a historian. Also try to be perceptive & grasp the abstract concept that I keep going on about, the one about 'thinking ahead'.
I could use that third last paragraph if the comedy of English errors were corrected & the word 'intelligent' was removed all together.
Again, with the second last paragraph, debating skills & wealth of knowledge burn bright.
The last paragraph concludes with another example of your intelligence.
Now wait, you've just coaxed me into making a post devoid of any real comment. I would feel guilty, but it's fighting fire with fire.
You know, you speak of truth & facts, yet you fail to understand what they are. Really, this is the second time you have portrayed yourself as an imbecile & to continue to do so even makes me cringe, so please stop. And just to let you know, I'm not the only the poster who has noticed the alarmingly low IQ you possess....
I wouldn't say that you were wrong, if this were an opinion question, however, it's a matter of facts, so one of us has to be wrong.
You should just give up your whole 'fear' theory, because it's obviously not true. For example, if someone killed your mom, would you attack them? You would wouldn't you? Okay, now did you attack them because you were pissed that they killed your mom, or because of fear that they might come back for you? It's pretty obvious that you'd be upset that they killed your mom. Hoping my analogy was easy enough for you to catch. Now, with that said, I can get to the real point. Our response was declaring war on Japan, and our most notable "attacks" were the nuclear arms at Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
You said that Japan attacked America because it sought to conquer more land. If you weren't implying that Japan was trying to gain control of Hawaii, than please explain what you meant, because it seems pretty obvious that that is what you meant.
The reaction was declaring war on Japan. I already said this. Okay, now here's where it gets complicated, try to keep up. We declared war on Japan. In response, Germany declared war on us. In response to that, we declared war back on Germany. So, when the U.S. declared war on Germany, it officially put us into World War II. But (are you ready for this?), Japan attacking us sparked the beginning of our entry! See, it's a whole cause/effect relationship! Too complicated? I hope not!
Okay, I've been trying to use lamen's terms for you this whole time, but it has not been working, so I will dumb it down another level for you! Here goes....
When I say "You're plainly wrong", it's not because I believe you're wrong, it's because you ARE wrong. When there are facts, you can either be right or wrong. When there are opinions, you can niether be right nor wrong. This is a conversation based on facts. Therefore, when I say you're wrong, it's not because I disagree with you, it's because your facts are not right.
Thinking ahead is wonderful. It really is. However, it is extremely unnecessary in this case. Why would America choose to attack if there was a possibility that they didn't need to? The allies were doing fine for themselves in the war, and I realize that America wanted them to win. Okay, here's another example. You have a friend who is extremely physically fit. He gets in a fight with a kid a few years younger than him. Halfway through the fight, it is obvious your friend will most likely win. Do you jump in and fight the little guy, or let your friend take care of it because he has it under control? I'm not sure what you would do, but I would let my friend take care of it.
Do you really think that it bothers me that you and maybe a few people on this board don't think I have a high IQ? Do you know me in real life or just from this board? I've made it clear in this post that I can be grammatically perfect if I want to be. Yet, I find it no use since it's a waste of time, when I'm just posting on an internet message board.
P.S. Do you think a person with an IQ as low as mine can get 4.0's in school? Or how about being only a sophomore and taking college classes? Or how about being in the National Honor Society? Or how about recieving letters from MENSA? Or how about reading Machiavelli's "The Prince" before I finished 8th grade? Next time you make assumptions, you should know me before you notice my alarmingly low IQ. :thumb:
