The amount of ordenance used during WW2 on cities just ploughing everything upside down is only dwarfed by the amount of ordenance dropped on Vietnam.

My grandma spent WW2 in a Japanese internment camp and whenever anyone said anything about how hard Japan was hit, she would only say "they deserved it all" and left it at that.

She's right. The things they did during WW2 in china, korea, and south east Asia are comparable to the holocaust.
