And at that point, people were weary of war, and just glad that the whole horrendous show with Hitler was finally over. And we still had Japan to deal with, though the writing was on the wall there. It's interesting to speculate what might have happened if we had got the Bomb a year earlier, and forced Japan to capitulate in the fall of 1944, and shown up at the gates of Berlin with an extra million Allied troops and a few atomic bombs.

Volcker and Bergier commissions The Volcker commission audit cost CHF 300 million and gave its final report in December 1999. It determined that the 1999 book value of all dormant accounts possibly belonging to victims of Nazi persecution that were unclaimed, closed by the Nazis, or closed by unknown persons was CHF 95 million. Of this total, CHF 24 million were "probably" related to victims of Nazi persecution. In addition the commission found "no proof of systematic destruction of records of victim accounts, organized discrimination against the accounts of victims of Nazi persecution, or concerted efforts to divert the funds of victims of Nazi persecution to improper purposes." It also "confirmed evidence of questionable and deceitful actions by some individual banks in the handling of accounts of victims". The Volcker commission recommended that for settlement purposes, the book values should be modified back to 1945 values (by adding back fees paid and subtracting interest) and then be multiplied by 10 to reflect average long-term investment rates in Switzerland. Under these rules, a total of $379.4 million was awarded to account holders or their heirs. In cases where the claimant could be verified but the size of the account could not, a $125,000 award was given. The commission recommended that the remaining balance of the settlement should be given to other victims of Nazi persecution. The Bergier Commission reached similar conclusions about the banks' conduct in its final report, and found that trade with Nazi Germany did not significantly prolong World War II. Quote:

I watched a TV report about this... Japanese already wanted to capitulate and already approached the US administration. The main problem for the Japaneses was to know how their Emperor could lose this war holding his head "high"... (IMO: What a stupidity. ) US administration didn't need and didn't have to throw two atomics bombs on civilian Japaneses.

It is ironic to me that whatever white "supremacists" do or say, they always prove themselves to be inferior and terrified of their own inadequacies.

People covered of Nazi crosses all over their bodies. Afraid by phenotype when their own genotype is probably an incredible mixture since at least their Roman ancesters. Some of their ancesters probably were deported Jews during the Roman Empire era, one of their female ancesters maybe was raped by a mongol invader, one of their male ancester fell in love with a North African woman, maybe one of their female ancester had a sexual affair with a African gladiator.... They don't get any idea of what happened in the past. Our common history was made by wars, invasions, travels. Our ancesters travelled and mixed themselves a lot. But these supremacists only look at the color of their "black tattoed" skin in front of the mirror. . Last edited by Roubignol; August 14th, 2017 at 01:54 PM..

@bombermouse: You said that "Robert E. Lee was a highly respected and exceptionally talented general... I am a US citizen and as far as I know, this is the only country that has memorials for the key figures in an unsuccessful rebellion. This has always seemed odd to me." Well, as people in the North like to say of the South: "It's like another country down there..."

The Japanese never reached out to the US to end the war. They tried to get the Soviets to intercede with the other Allies in negotiating a surrender, but the Soviets kept the Japanese at arms length until they delivered their own declaration of war. Was it necessary to drop the bombs on Hiroshima and Nagasaki? Perhaps not. Amateur historian that I am, I maintain that dropping the bombs saved millions of Allied troops and millions of Japanese troops and civilians. And don't kid yourself, if the Japanese had the ability to do to us what was done to them, they would have. Back on topic, yes, ban the Klan. Plain and simple, the Klan is a domestic terrorist organization. Off the top of my head, I cannot think of a similar left-wing radical group as well organized as the Klan was/is.

I watched this documentary a long time ago... my memory is not always that good. I must have made better researches before to write that Japanese approached the US administration. I only remembered that they were thinking to give up before to receive those two bombs. Now, were those two nuclear bombs "reasonable"? ... It's another story. Quote:
