Observation on War

[AChimp]

I was thinking today, and I just realized... white people rarely fight white people nowadays. I mean, a century ago, it was the "in" thing for white people to fight each other, but it seems that white people have only been fighting brown people for the last 60 years.

Well, I guess white people have almost always been fighting brown people, but white people have always fought each other over the right to fight the brown people at the same time.

I also noticed that white people haven't really fought with yellow people throughout history. Sure, there's WW2, but over 1000 years, it can almost be considered an isolated incidence.

I wonder what this means. :/

Yeah, we just kick those pasty white asses in math and science whoo.

My ass is so white that it glows. I think if I ever exposed it to the sun, it might burn up completely.

Look into the warm history between China and Russia, and Japan and Russia. You'll find "whites" and "yellows" mixing it up quite often.

[AChimp]

Oi! I'm afraid I don't know much about Asian history.

[The_Rorschach]

I don't know too much either or I would elaborate, but I have it on good authority (a whore I slept with in Vladivostok) that there is a couple hundred years of animity between the Russians those two countries.

George Carlin has a very funny routine where he commented on that, in very similair terms.

[Ronnie Raygun]

Yes, all of our black, asian, and hispanic troops stayed at home this war.

Japan seem to be quite the instigators in the south Pacific and I just don't mean Word War I & II. During the time I was stationed at Schofield Barracks, HI I was exposed to a lot of different asian nationalities that seemed to despise the Japanese, especially the Philipinos and Koreans. A variety of reasons go into their attitude but I think a lot of it has to do with past wars and current economics. I'm with AChimp ... I don't know a lot of asian history but I DO know what I observed.

Ronnie has completely missed the point of this thread. Perhaps he is still trying to wrap his brain around that whole economic growth idea.
