However, there are times like WW2 when the Japanese, Germany, and Italy had to be defeated for humanity's sake.

That's why we need to do everything we can to avoid it.

Surely Sherry, you know we had to fight that Axis- the three countries above. I am pro-peace, however we had no cboice in WW2. However, I wish we would have chosen peace instead of war in most since then. My dear brother Barry would still be alive without Vietnam for instance!

So many lives are affected. Even though I was not involved in the Japanese occupation, I was affected significantly. Do you know if anyone has ever done a video on collateral damage. There's been a lot of books.(here is excellent book that Sherry wrote:

Whew! The war comes home with the vet or even worse when the vet does not come home, however in your case, second generation from occupation after invasion! What about your children? "Collateral effects" need to be more recognized and wisdom to help stop wars. In fact, that is what your book does, and that is my goal for my work. Thanks for your inspiration dear Sherry
