Well, that's bad, not forgetting old war matters. When I talk about 'Americans'
I mean the whole continent which includes central America, South Amerika and

Not to stand up for Glenn's ideas, but didn't you just do the same to Americans by posting a cherry-picked collection of facebook updates?

No, because I didn't draw or attempt to draw a conclusion about Americans based on the Facebook quotes, I just presented the facts as they are.

The facts as they are? Wouldn't that include posting a picture showing a selection of positive facebook updates by Americans and some statistics showing the relationship between the two?

I was making a point, not writing a thesis. My point was that some Americans would not be hospitable to Japanese, and I provided evidence for that. Nothing more, nothing less.
