No offence!I just find it interesting!Japanese soldiors believe in bushidao,they think it is a fame to die in battles and it is shameful to be taken as prisoners.Meanwhile, Hemingway once said in "The Old Man and Sea" that "A man can be destroyed but not defeated".It sounds like that that Hemingway agrees with the bushido which the Japanese soldiors believe firmly.I am to ignorant to understand it,is there anyone who can help me figure it out?
@PattonGeller,
Yes. You are trying to compare a banana with a ballon and can't figure out why you can't peel a balloon and eat it.
@PattonGeller,
Why are you talking about 1930s and 1940s Japanese soldiers in the present tense?
@PattonGeller,
The real question is, do you walk to school... or carry your lunch?
