RE: New Rule - Promoting Terrorism
We already knew what would happen with firebombing, the March, 1945, raid killed more people than either atomic bomb.

As for the civilians, you had to be a preteen or an elderly person to be a civilian in Japan at the time. The lawfully appointed government of Japan deemed all able-bodied Japanese to be part of the military.

Gen. Anami declared "100,000,000 dead in defense of Japan!" There were only ~70,000,000 Japanese at the time, so the rest would have to made up by the Allies. Anami would start that process by ordering that every Allied POW, man, woman or child, would be killed when the first Allied boot touched the Home Islands.

So if you making the Japanese out as victims here you need to do some research.

Since this is entirely preemptive, what would be an example of promoting terrorism?

"If you want to end the Western threat to Islam contact ISIS at the following number to learn how to build a terrorist cell in your town!"

Too subtle?

Seeing how they were primarily aimed at the civilian population in order to force the Japanese government to surrender, falls in line with the definition  of terrorism.

“What constitutes support or promotion of known terrorist groups is up to staff discretion. ”
Glad I could clear that up for you Wink

Nelson Mandela was once listed as a Terrorist by US. Glad we can at least praise him today. *smiles*

There are plenty of examples online. Big Grin

I understand the need for discussion about it, of course. I just really, really think it won't ever matter to any of you that this rule exists.

Can we get a split?  Good convo going on here..for the history section.
I am the Infantry. I am my country’s strength in war, her deterrent in peace. I am the heart of the fight… wherever, whenever. I carry America’s faith and honor against her enemies. I am the Queen of Battle. I am what my country expects me to be, the best trained Soldier in the world. In the race for victory, I am swift, determined, and courageous, armed with a fierce will to win. Never will I fail my country’s trust. Always I fight on…through the foe, to the objective, to triumph overall. If necessary, I will fight to my death. By my steadfast courage, I have won more than 200 years of freedom. I yield not to weakness, to hunger, to cowardice, to fatigue, to superior odds, For I am mentally tough, physically strong, and morally straight. I forsake not, my country, my mission, my comrades, my sacred duty. I am relentless. I am always there, now and forever. I AM THE INFANTRY! FOLLOW ME!

Report the post where it split. That's how you get us to talk about and split it.

Do I have to promote it in every post, or once every so often?
