Hello Janis,

 >>>>> 2. USA incarcerated thousants of American citizens of Japanese
 >>>>> origin without any process.

 >> That is true.

 JK> It is true that it happened, but Herman, it didn't happen "that day".

Not in Hawaii.

 JK> It happend later:

Not in Hawaii, as no Hawaiian citizen or resident, even those of
Japanese ancestry, were interned in Hawaii.

 JK> On December 7, 1941, Japan bombed Pearl Harbor. The next day, the United
 JK> States and Britain declared on Japan.

That is incorrect.  FDR merely announced to the Congress that a state
of war existed between the United States and the Empire of Japan.  The
last time the Congress actually declared war was in 1812.  And that was
not against the Germans, Italians or the Japanese.

Please do get your facts straight.

 JK> Two months later, on February 19, 1942 President Franklin D. Roosevelt
 JK> signed Executive Order 9066. This order led to the assembly and evacuation
 JK> and relocation of nearly 122,000 men, women, and children of Japanese
 JK> ancestry on the west coast of the United States.

Did not apply to the territory of Hawaii, which refused to go along
with FDR's executive order.

 JK> And the fact that the incarceration occurred is what I was referring to in
 JK> my message to Ross, even though you had the date wrong.  Let it go Herman.

Clearly, you do not know what you are talking about.

 >>>> and thousands of Europeans laid down like sissies and let Germany
 >>> take Europe,
 >>>> a few years before.

 >> That is NOT true..

Not much is in the world of RossiLand.

 JK> Of course it is not true.

Who started WWII?  Germans say we (the Allies) were the aggressors.
Even today most Germans do not like Americans.  Why did you bomb our
cities?  Why did you bomb our schools?  What have we ever done to you
to deserve this?  That is what Germans ask Americans, even today.

 >>> Hey, you know it happened.. I'm sure we all do.  No need to take
 >>> offense there.

 >> What happened??
 >> Please explain

 >> For instance: The NL armed forces did fight against Germany the _WHOLE_
 >> WW2
 >> (after May 5th 1940)

 JK> See above.

The Dutch people suffered much, and resisted the German war
machine the entire war.  That is something you have yet to learn,
and appreciate.
