Be afraid of a country that has to launch BALLOONS and hope they drift into something that will catch fire in a country 10,000 miles away! I never said anything about "being afraid" of the incendiary balloon program. You, ignorantly, claimed we were not subject to being attacked, and I, very specifically, corrected you. Now, instead of admitting your ignorance, you want to change the subject. From the article linked by one of the other posters on this subject: Much worse, the Americans had some knowledge that the Japanese had been working on biological weapons, most specifically at the infamous Unit 731 site at Pingfan in Manchuria, and a balloon carrying biowarfare agents could be a real threat. Your basic assertion was that WWII was not a defensive action on the part of the United States, and obviously, you are as stupid as the day is long.
