Japan changes name of Iwo Jima

[Trumplestiltskin 5,791]

Again - what exactly is being taken away from WW2 veterans by changing the official name (if we're classifying spelling as a name change) back to what it originally was?

[Ban Hammer 13,346]

It is beyond me why any American should be upset about this. And furthermore, to say that we need to kick their ####### because they want to rename *their* island is absurd and disgusting.

it's real easy jenn, you probably don't know any us marines and if you did, you'd know how significant the battle of iwo jima is to marines. so are you going to continue with the petty remarks or grow up?

My petty remarks? Grow up? You're the one who wants to do some ####### kicking over a name change.

or would you rather i just report your personal attack?

Go right ahead. Clearly I've upset you. So sorry.

done. and save the insincerity for someone who cares.

:lol:

And what did you report exactly? That I said your statement about kicking some ####### was absurd and disgusting? That statment in itself was more reportable than my response to it, but okaaaaaay.

obviously such was aimed at me. haven't you sharpened that ax yet?

Ummm, DUH it was aimed at you. You're the one who said it. I'll say it again, your statement was absurd and disgusting, hardly a personal attack.

If you're gonna hurl reports around, include me in. I agree with Jenn. This remark:

maybe we need to kick their ####### again

is absurd & disgusting. From Wikipedia:

Of the over 22,000 Japanese soldiers, 20,703 died and 216 were captured. The Allied forces suffered 27,909 casualties, with 6,825 killed in action. The number of American casualties were greater than the total Allied casualties on D-Day (estimated at 10,000, compared with 125,847 American casualties during the entire Battle of Normandy). Iwo Jima was also the only U.S. Marine battle where the American casualties exceeded the Japanese -- most of the 22,000 defending the island.

Great. Let's honour their memory by saying we should kick some more #######.
