KhunBENQ Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 (edited) This thread is another reason not to talk to other unknown foreigners about anything than the weather. He might think I am a criminal. Crazy. Happy to have no "farang" neighbours here. But maybe he will interpret my silence as even more disturbing? Do I have to tell my life story?

krisb Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 what is criminal about being a soldier? Far as us Aussies are concerned, if he was a Jap soldier, he's enemy. Be- head the guy just in case Oz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post tubby johnson Posted October 20, 2014 Popular Post Share Posted October 20, 2014 I know a friendly old Japanese guy in his eighties, living quietly in rural Thailand. But this morning he called me to complain about his paranoid, raving mad farang neighbour: "I said 'Hello, a beautiful day, isn't it?' and now he stalks me incessantly, stays up all night talking to himself and records everything I do. He's up in a tree filming me right now!" 10 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oz That sounds pretty rural to most of us, unless you're paranoid of course. Please don't disturb us here in Bangkok, stay where you are!Still, you can't be too careful these days. Buy a set of kitchen knives at Tesco and torture a confession out of the evil Jap. Or better still, steal his samurai sword and cut off his head ... Better safe than sorry. You'll sleep much better tonight. Edited October 20, 2014 by tubby johnson 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Operation Meetinghouse air raid of 9–10 March 1945 was later estimated to be the single most destructive bombing raid in history but it was Tokyo; 100,000 plus killed, http://www.onlinemilitaryeducation.org/posts/10-most-devastating-bombing-campaigns-of-wwii/ But I really don't see that as a war crime. Japanese bombed the Allies and the Allies bombed the Japanese. The Japanese didn't do a very good job and the Allies did so the Allied powers won the war.

JDGRUEN Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 While your at it, get in touch with Vietnamese government as I am sure there are plenty war criminals living in Thailand as well they would be interested in And so the great TV conspiracy train leaves the station bound for destinations unknown Okay - Send the Vietnamese my name ... I will be happy to greet them... with open arms... But of course some of us were actually involved in something rather than just being a pretender of having a real life... as some do.

harrry Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 I don't get the math here. Someone help me please. My dad was born in 1917.He's 97. He entered the war in 1943 when he was about 26. If he had been Japanese and entered when he was 16, he would be 87? Don't forget that at least a lot of Americans lied about their age and joined the military just so they could get enough to eat during the Great Depression of the 30's which lasted until about the start of WWII. Some were as young a 14 years old. I don't know if any Japanese did that. Neversure, I hope mathematics was not your major. I was born in 1943 and am 72. if we count from the end of the war in 45 and put someone at 15 when he joined he would be 90 now. If he was a 15 year old soldier he was unlikely to be at a level where he could be a war criminal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Climb back up that tree and unleash an air attack ... rain bombs on his house! I want you to know that I'm proud of you. Should you perish in the offensive, your brave deeds will not go unremembered. Your selfless dedication to the persecution and annihilation of fugitive Japanese war criminals will be talked about for generations to come. 4 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crazygreg44 Posted October 20, 2014 Share Posted October 20, 2014 War criminal ? I always thought that soldiers killing other people during a war, are soldiers instead of criminals. Maybe G. W. Bush is a war criminal because he started a war based on lies ? Ok, sorry folks, he didn't kill anyone by his own hands. A japanese guy who participated the pacific war, why don't leave him alone, His conscience followed him and he long time ago confessed to his sins. Watch him if he still hollers "Banzai!!" and shakes the raising sun flag, you must try to wringe that sword off him . . . 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Japanese bombed the Allies and the Allies bombed the Japanese. The Japanese didn't do a very good job and the Allies did so the Allied powers won the war. I think the original point from this sequence of posts was that as the victors, the allies tried the Nazis and the Japanese for war crimes. Had the war gone the other way then the axis powers would have tried the allies for events such as Hiroshima or the fire bombing of Dresden where tens of thousands of civilians died. The victors get to say what was a war crime and what was not. The horror. Sent from my KFTT using Thaivisa Connect Thailand mobile app 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but he's just a spammer with a rather weak sense of humour. Reminds me of that other poster The Blether. This thread was serious which makes for better entertainment value. Reminds me of the Monty Python sketch where a certain "Mr. Hilter" is hiding out in Minehead, UK. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
