And then there is Japan. The personification of monstrous. The rape of China the Japanese fostered on the peoples of China is beyond horrendous and reaches the unimaginable. Read up on what they did to the many other countries besides the bombing of Pearl Harbor.

Fortunately for the world they picked a fight with the USA and we had the resolve and capacity to beat them into unconditional surrender. We had lots of allies in the battles of WW2, but it was the US manufacturing capacity that supplied the goods needed to beat Japan.

The US for sure did not defeat Germany and Japan all alone, we had lots of help but we carried the biggest load, and we rebuilt Europe especially Germany and Japan and got them back on the road to recovery.

Well said!
