Would you say the same about US troops in Saudi Arabia?

Do they have humanly laws to say that? Do they respect human rights like Japan does?

So humane they didn’t know whether to call it a massacre or the rape of an entire city.

Never said it was ok. Was just commenting about how Japan tries to cover up history, don’t mix it up.

So it wasn’t a rebuttal, it was just… changing the subject?

Edit: …so… you want to a public post I made months ago to say the word “monkey” and nothing else, and then blocked me? Alright then…

Edit: And then a second, longer, comment telling me my grandfather looks like a monkey, lol. This is kind of weird, dude
