Why I love a country that once betrayed me | George Takei 

We need to hear more of these speeches! It would do all of us good.

I wonder if the fight that Japanese unit won were against Japanese Army. Not sure if they would kill other Japaneses because they traditionally have strong culture roots, even remotes descendants. Imprisonment of Japaneses was practiced for several countries during WWII because in that time to reveal Army, Air Force or Navy position for a enemy inside your territory was a huge disadvantage. In other words, one Japanese informing via radio any American army position to Japanese Air Force could be catastrophic. As you couldn't individualize that one person's behave, the only way was arrest every Japanese and their descendants unfortunately. But Japan did worse with foreigners and Chineses and Koreans. That people was mostly killed by Japanese forces. Today maybe it wouldnt be necessary because fights are technological and you command everything from computers rooms and satellites.

gotraingo the 442nd and 100th were deployed to Europe. There were over 6000 Japanese-Americans in the Military Intelligence Service who were sent to the Pacific.

That is correct, the Japanese American forces were not allowed to fight in the Pacific theater.

Valrick Welch Understandable.

Bill Heuer thank you. That is how the Japanese descendants are! Look at the bombings of Hiroshima and Nagasaki, the survivors are not bitter, they have forgiven the "hero" harry truman, the biggest c°,@≥#t!!!!

Bill Heuer boo hoo

@@randynundlall2601 he was a hero nothing less

David Moore I think what he means is he’s amazed by how George Takei doesn’t seem to hold any ill will towards the people who interred him, and that, if he were in Takei’s position, he’d be too overcome by (definitely justified) anger that he wouldn’t be able to forgive them.

Very difficult times to navigate

@Vote him Out Bro, Tom did mention "When it deserves it".

@Vote him Out You got that wrong. Nationalism is the belief that the existance of nations are legitimate. There are many types of nationalism, ethno-nationalism: each ethnicity should have their own nation built around that ethnicity (ethno-state), civic-nationalism: anyone can belong to a nation as long as they share the values of that country (example: the US), cultural nationalism: the nation is built upon people sharing the same culture, Pan-nationalism: creating a larger ethnic or cultural nation transcending traditional borders (example: pan-germanism, pan-slavism, pan scandinaviaism). Nationalism has nothing to do with supporting your governement, that is closer to patriotism than the other way around.

@Vote him Out Nationalism has nothing to do with loyalty, it is an ideology.

@Vote him Out Let's just give you this example. A nationalist wouldn't be "loyal" to a globalist/internationalist/imperialist government more than a socialist would be "loyal" to a capitalist governemt. Ofc anyone would be loyal to a government they agree with.

​@Vote him Out That's because neo-luddite propaganda has convinced you Trump can't lead or unite. I promise he's doing both. I am not affiliated with a party either. But modern democrats oppose private property and national sovereignty. That's fucking treason, whether you are a dem or rep... we must unite under civil rights or be taken away by bolsheviks.

Thank you for sharing your story. I am not a religious theist, but I bless the folks who serve our community and do good while they're alive on this planet. Bless your Uncle Y, and may we all emulate his great character.

to hear this from a Canadian is laughable

Hey, Corey. That's what I meant by a thoughtful, well-constructed reply. I tend to agree with you on nearly everything you presented. I agree that an "effective" world government would be a whole lot better than the systems we have now: wars, unfair trade, worker abuse, etc. etc. The question is, of course, what constitutes "effective?" Nationalism--and pure human obstinacy--being what it is (annoying, mostly), we'll probably never see it. I think we both agree: there are a lot of crazy, fearful, angry people out there who can't make sense of this hypercomplex world because their brains haven't evolved enough to deal with it. But I'm really glad to see that there's at least one more goodhearted and smart person who can grasp the Big Picture. Stand tall and hang in there. Corey. You're one of the Good Guys. Thanks.

Canada, and all those nations that have committed these criminal acts have to be brought to justice and many have, including the Canadian Government. Everyone has skeletons in their closet that they have to resolve not just for others, but for themselves and to clear their consciences.

I laughed when I read that you were Canadian.

+skysthe limitvideos You laughed when you read he was Canadian? Ok, and why is that? Do you think we don't have an army up here, or japanese people? Do you think we did not fight in WWII, that we aren't allowed to have an opinion, that we don't have heroes AND idiots like you... I mean like you do up here? Yes, we have all of that so what's your point exactly, if you have one of course...

they didn't expect anyone would mourn them. they didn't expect anyone would thank them. they bore it all quietly and fight on. not just respect, they deserve greatest honors.

@@gendoruwo6322 What you stated is true about anyone that serves in the military. No one in the military expects anyone outside our family to mourn us if we are killed in war or doing our duty in pace time. No one in the military expects to be thanked for what we do or what we sacrifice during our time in volunteering for that service. Those that decide to make military service a career sacrifice a great deal more and never expect to be thanked. This is not meant to take away anything from the Americans of Japanese decent that served in the 442. As stated, the 442 was the most decorated unit of the war and suffered the highest casualties of the war. They proved themselves through all the prejudice, much of it stirred up by the government, news media and Hollywood. Unfortunately a lot of it turned out to be true because of the Japanese military and it's indoctrination to the Bushido code of behavior. Most of this stuff is not taught anymore but the information is still out there. Read about the Japanese Unit 721 sometime or the Rape of Nanking. Ujjwal Kumar For those that fell silently to their deaths, they did so as not to betray their comrades. Being in a unit like the 442 you develop a bond with the others you serve with and it is something closer than family. Unless you serve in the military it is very hard to understand and appreciate that bond. They knew if they screamed as they fell it would have given away the only advantage they had, a surprise attack from the enemies rear. It may sound strange to many but a Soldier fights for their brothers and sisters in arms first their country second.

@@EIBBOR2654 lots to mull over in your comment

I lost one of my men in the mountains of Afghanistan the same way. We all prepped ourselves psychologically before the mountain night patrol. He didn't even whimpered. We all heard that thump almost 1000ft below us. And we kept going. But when we returned to our outpost three days later. Grown warriors cried like little boys, including myself.

Harry Eaton easy for you to say

That will only happen when all races realize... and I mean seriously realize what it *truly* means to be a *humanbeing* ... If someone is going to take advantage of another by any all means, or outright kill another person for whatever ... You will know who does not know what the true meaning of being human really is. Until that day comes... There will only be the few of us with that morality and mentality. Still, I am doing what I can to give the hint to the solution by making these very comments. Still, it never ceases to amaze me at how closed off so many people are to accepting diversity and progress as a species.

What about black Americans

Well, please understand that black Americans and native Americans etc. have been part of the US WW2 war effort just as much as these 442nd troops. WW1 was even more so truly multi-ethnic. The lesson is general.

What is a Hispano?

Muslim Americans will never assimilate in America. It's impossible. Their culture is incompatible with everything but themselves.

Beau Bassett Ja! This person is kinda correct! we need to increase Nationalism. BUT everything in moderation unless we want another Facist europe.....

+Jung Sung Bak wtf? Racist much

+Simone Lymbery Not exactly wtf. From his name, he would appear to be Korean. Korea suffered beyond description at the hands of the Japanese during WW2. Look up Japanese war crimes on wikipedia. You have to understand, there are still people alive in these countries that went through these events. Regardless of how you think about their beliefs, its hardly surprising that they exist.

+iHatebologna59 Patriotism and nationalism are not two words for the same thing, all nationalists are patriots, but not all patriots are nationalists. Patriots are proud of their country and prepared to die to defend it. Nationalists believe that every culture should have a country of their own, they are proud of their own culture and prepared to die for the country of their culture. Thus nationalists can't be multiculturalists while patriots can. The men Takei admired who were part of the 442:nd unit were most certainly patriots, and most certainly not nationalists. There were however most likely lots of other american soldiers who likewise died for their country in WWII, but who were nationalists. If you were to ban all the nationalists from the army you'd have a much smaller army, in European countries you would likely exclude most soldiers.

Jung Sung Bak Jesus Christ, your Korean and you hate what they did to your country, but that's in the past

The only ones who need to apologize are the exact people who committed atrocities. But, what a nation should do, is teach what happened. Germany is a great example at least from what I've heard, they talk a lot about the holocaust in schools. Japan however, again from what I've heard, does not go into much detail about how sadistic and brutal their empire was. Instead they victimize themselves with the nukes. It's a terrible thing that hundreds of thousands of civilians had to die instantly or suffer from radiation, but it was a necessary sacrifice. The Japanese empire massacred millions, and this would have continued if the nukes weren't dropped. Still, most Japanese Americans had nothing to do with the atrocities. They didn't deserve to suffer. Just like most Russian Americans today. Just because you're the same ethnicity or nationality does not mean you agree with the actions of your government... how do people not realize this? I think they genuinely just have no critical thinking skills. Objectively dumb people. Anyway, uh, I guess I went on a bit of a tangent... but TL;DR, Yes, Japan shouldn't apologize for war crimes, but that DOES NOT mean history should be put behind us. Don't you know the saying "those who don't remember history are doomed to repeat it"? Japan needs to TEACH about its war crimes in schools. As should every other country, including the US

I think it is some times hard to be fully transparent when you have seen your race discriminated against and your sexuality. Maybe his short changing the truth is him protecting himself from racism and homophobia. Thankfully the younger generations aren't as racist or homophobic.

Emz351 I hate to shock your sensibilities even more. German and Italian Americans were interred in the USA during WW2 also. You should start a movement insisting we apologize.

wow, let your true feelings out. Conventional wisdom is very much on your side. There is a possibility, however, this can't actually be blamed on japanese militarism, or even the 'unique evil of japanese militarism'. There is a possibility, that the most disciplined troops were the ones Least likely to commit war crimes during the war. The only evidence of this would be that the worst war crimes occurred early in their military campaigns. So perhaps their over discipline was a response to these war crimes and an attempt to prevent it in the future. They were not the evil themselves. Never-the-less, you make your point. I guess there are times leftists/those in the mainstream don't like Really like cultural relativism. Those times would be all times while they are promoting the idea White European men - bad. Everyone else amazingly good.

there are no races... peoples, nations... but no races!

Ryan you can judge people based on belief/ideals/words and that is fine but race/gender and the like is disgusting. Now when I say judging I mean more of an view of them as a person, example if you say evolution is false I am going to judge your intelligence as lacking but I may like you in many other aspects. Now I don't know much about Jews to have any feelings for them either way but if say they had beliefs along the lines of say Mormon's and their magic underwear I would again look down on said belief. Note I don't think one belief or view determines the complete value of a person but it certainly plays a part in coming to a conclusion on said person.

+Kendrik There are1.5 billion Muslims in this world. even 1% equals 15 million. I guarantee you,the number of extremists is a small minority,lesser than 1%,but that still comes to a considerable number.

@J M So you're saying that people who were imprisoned for belonging to a racial group were mad for being wrongfully imprisoned? Wow, shocker. And stop being a prejudiced asshat, some Japanese Americans left to join Japan, but most didn't. The Germans also declared war on us, so why didn't we send German Americans to concentration camps? FDR was not right to intern them, it's the stain on his legacy, the US Government apologized for it for feck's sake.

@J M ah yes. selling the country as the "land of opportunities" (don't forget that some of them came here for a better life) and then violating their rights definitely left a great impression on them. *sarcasm* stop being an asshat. the majority of issei men were detained with no evidence and might i add that 18 caucasians were tried for spying for japan and 10 were convicted of it (including a former us navy officer).

Juan Manuel Penaloza VA

If you get the chance, you should look up the 100th Battalion, 442nd Regimental Combat Team. The unit size was about 4 thousand men, they earned 9,486 Purple Hearts and 21 Medals of Honor.

It is one of those things you'll find by your own research. In all fairness, the revolutionary war is just as important. That is the seed that grew all of the amazing, heroes in our land that he mentioned.

The reason why many people don't learn about these groups is that of the fact that they are Segregated, Japanese American Troops. America does not like to think about the fact that the Japanese Americans, who they had been prejudiced against for so long, fought better, harder, and smarter than the people who hated them.

@Rich Davis Don't confuse "liberal" with "Democrat". Political parties, especially ones that have been around for decades, can and must change their positions on issues. Society changes. Prevailing opinions change. If political parties never changed then they would cease to exist and be replaced by new ones. If you look at the history of politics in the USA, you will see both Republicans and Democrats have flip-flopped on multiple issues. Almost like, "Half-time! Switch sides."

But despite not going through a fraction of what the Japanese descent Americans did in WWII it's all the fault of the West, of foreign policy and whatever else they can say to avoid facing the fact that they are following a rotten ideology that is completely anti-american and anti-western. These Japanese Americans are a testimony to the greatness of assimilation into America. Be very proud of them. Their descendants will be shot and blown up by your fellow Americans who have not suffered 1% of what they did in the name of a political and religious system that people refuse to face facts about.

GeneralQuilix We are fighting a religion not a race actually. And if you think Islam is a religion like any other I respectfully suggest you need to study more. I spent over a decade in the Middle East and I can point you in the direction of native Arabs who will tell you Islam is the core problem behind this. Of course this might contradict what our political elites and media tells us. But that same cabal was talking about the 'yellow peril' and denying Americans their freedom and chance to fight simply because of their racial origins...
