Tokyo Rose

The other night we watched a movie called, "Flags of our Fathers." During the movie, I pointed out the radio broadcast of "Tokyo Rose."

She had the best music on her station. During World War II, the Japanese developed a way to demoralize the American forces. Psychological warfare experts developed a message they felt would work. They gave the script to their famous broadcaster "Tokyo Rose" and every day she would broadcast this same message packaged in different ways. The Japanese hoped it would have a negative impact on American GI's morale. What was that demoralizing message? It had three main points:

1. Your President is lying to you.
2. This war is illegal.
3. You cannot win the war.

Does this sound familiar today?

It is because we are being bombarded by Tokyo Hillary, Tokyo Harry, Tokyo Teddy, Tokyo Nancy, , etc., and they have picked up the same message and are broadcasting it on Tokyo CNN, Tokyo ABC, Tokyo CBS, Tokyo NBC, etc., to our troops.

The only difference is that they claim to support our troops before they demoralize them. Come to think of it, Tokyo Rose also told the troops she was on their side.

Of course, after that fact, we learned that:
1) Our President was not lying to us.
2) The only illegality part was that they started it without cause.
3) We won because then the American People and our leaders stood behind our troops in every respect. We worked as a team, at home and abroad.

Think that can/will ever happen again?

In one final note:

Tokyo Rose was arrested and convicted of treason, and served many years in a US prison. When she was released after an eventual Presidential Pardon, she chose to stay in America, and lived here the rest of her life and is now buried in the USA.

Perhaps that is when America started going soft on traitors, from Jane Fonda, to John Kerry, then Nancy Pelosi, and now Harry Reid. Hmmmmm.

There used to ba a time when traitors were executed. I believe the last one was Rosenburg, in the 1950's for giving Atomic Bomb data to Russia.

Nowadays the media just makes heroes out of them.

Interesting.
