The best Japanese site on the web. I use it often.

You will also find the "Why Japan lost the war" story on this site as well.

"You were given the choice between war and dishonor.
You chose dishonor and you will have war."

(Winston Churchill made this prophetic pronouncement in a House of Commons speech in 1938, just after Prime Minister Neville Chamberlain signed the Munich agreement with Hitler. Chamberlain returned from Germany with the signed agreement in hand, proclaiming that "peace in our time" had been achieved. Churchill attacked Chamberlain's "politics of appeasement" in this and many other speeches.)

What did the Australians do in ww2 and other conflicts? Check out this site:

Naming this errors now is nonsense, everyone knows them.
So why do you bother to make the statement on a discussion forum?

After all is said and done, I find it one of the best on the net regardless what the subject. I've been using it for about four years on so.
