teddy roosevelt when the japanese beat the russians in their russo-japanese war of 1985 talked about the plucky japanese and so did the british and the attack on the russian fleet's. it could reseen as kind of a pearl harbor of that time and it succeeded outwardly. >> americans being attacked. the fact that the operation was a surprise attack as well but the soviets don't seem to make as much of a myth about the surprise and the sneaky and stealth nature. i think it has to do with the fact that it's so dramatic and the fact that america was attacked on its soil and it was a very heavily japanese populated island. i think it just became part of the american psyche and collective historical narrative and became a symbol and sort of departed from its real significance perhaps. >> so was ruled a set play in american myths. john dower amongst others. he didn't necessarily condone the attack on pearl harbor. in fact he said he didn't but his analysis is that one of the reasons the americans were so shocked by this event in so outraged at the idea of infamy and so on was that it played into

so i think it is more perceived that the russo japanese war and sett settlements is the failure of japanese diplomacy. i have never heard it blamed on the america side. it is sort of going with the idea that the american grit power could be a broker and peace maker. so that the japanese kept asking americans to be the mediator. i think that built in unfair expectations of the united states being a police man standing up for japanese interested. >> it makes little different if you are the victim of someone t torturing you. but there is a difference between military atroscities and they were terrible all over which cannot be excused and they should be faced and they are horrifying. but there is a slight difference to the military atrocities. and we can talk about why it happens. the government that has a program to exterminate people because they don't have the right to exist. in the japanese war there were military atrocities. if you like, and one is going to be provauoprovocative about it, like what happened in vietnam nam. you had soldiers that could not see the difference between civilian

this idea was first articulated in the modern age by russo -- that this is what they believe. man is born free but is everywhere in chains. this is an idiotic statement. if you just think about it for a second. i mean, a baby is not free. it's completely dependent. a baby is not a cooperative person, a moral person like young people. if you put two infants, 2-year-olds, in a room with a bunch of toys and close the door, you're going to hear screams coming from that room, what, five minutes. we wouldn't -- if people were naturally moral, we wouldn't need morality. we wouldn't need laws. people are not moral. conservatives understand that we are the problem. the root cause of social problems is us. how -- you know, you have to ask yourself how can you, as progressives do, think that government can be a progressive force? government -- slavery, that was government. segregation, that was government. and, of course, the whole totalitarian system was done by government. because what is a human being when they get into a position of power? it's the same human being that that you want
