Beautifully constructed and 100% true. It's like what I've said about how we earned ourselves Pearl Harbor. It started in 1856-9 when Townsend Harris who opened Japan to trade. You want to know how he REALLY did it? He took steam powered warships over there and told them to either open their borders and that they had to trade with America or he was going to bomb them to rubble with his warships. They agreed for their own lives but began small gurella conflicts to take over pieces of land for the next 80-85 years or so until finally they crossed the sea and attacked Manchuria bringing them into the conflict at that time: WWII. Then Pearl Harbor happened and so on so forth you know the rest of the story. Our imperalism netted us their scorn and they got back at us, and look what WE did back to them again...it's disgusting.
