Yes: <Was there ever a moment in history when the Chinese and Japanese fought together? > It must have been about 3000 years ago give or take a bit. They were once the same people, with Chinese migrating from the mainland and turning into Japanese. They even have the same written language, more or less, [modern versions apart], though the spoken version has gone through metamorphosis.

During the British Empire expansion, and then the USA expansion, including into Philippines, there was some common cause too, leading to the idea of the Greater East Asian Co-Prosperity Sphere.

Japan was once owned by Ainu tribes but when those expansionary Mandarins moved in, it was all over for them bar the shouting. The Ainu must have dropped by during the migration over the Bering Straits and through the American continents.

<<Please read the earlier posts again>>

... what was the original discussion actually about? oh, yes, a matter of bravery by armed soldiers against unarmed civilians of other nations.

then someone claimed americans won wwii, when the truth fell apart.

arguably, had russia not taken care of germany's true attention for the time it mattered, germany would have developed the nuke years earlier

and had china willingly gone along with the supposedly anti-western colonial f.e.c.p.shere starting 1921, you might as well be learning japanese

but, the subject was about bravery of armed main line troops against defenseless civilians of other nations

the winner these days would not be germany or japan

and bringing on discussions about wwii changes nothing

for the truth allows for no arguments, because it is the truth

saying "ouch" will suffice

recommendation: say "ouch"
