Tojo lost his mojo and his yo-yo playing the banjo!
A poem called: the last Samurai: Tojo he was warlord, He say: If Japan-Kwo wants war, Japan-Kwo will have war! In the end the the Fat Man and the Thin Man fell on Japan-Kwo... and Tojo swung in autumn breeze, wearing a hemp necktie While cherry trees blossomed...... Confucius he say: Tojo was velly honollabre ah...

More About Tojo's Times Than Tojo
Browne has written an excellent summary of Japanese governmental history during the first half of the twentieth century rather than a biography of Tojo. Pages go by with no mention of the biography's purported subject. When Tojo does receive attention, it is usually a bare summary of his actions.

More About Tojo's Times Than Tojo,
By A Customer
This review is from: Tojo (Paperback)
Browne has written an excellent summary of Japanese governmental history during the first half of the twentieth century rather than a biography of Tojo. Pages go by with no mention of the biography's purported subject. When Tojo does receive attention, it is usually a bare summary of his actions. There is little attempt to get inside his mind or to provide personal context. Similarly, the photos section has relatively few photos of Tojo. The book is very good but its title ought to be "Japan: Government 1900-1945."

Tojo lost his mojo and his yo-yo playing the banjo!,
By
This review is from: Tojo (Paperback)
A poem called: the last Samurai:
Tojo he was warlord, He say: If Japan-Kwo wants war, Japan-Kwo will have war! In the end the the Fat Man and the Thin Man fell on Japan-Kwo... and Tojo swung in autumn breeze, wearing a hemp necktie While cherry trees blossomed...... Confucius he say: Tojo was velly honollabre ah so............. Bit long for a haiku, but it pretty much sums up Tojo's life and achievements. A horrible and destructive nihilist, at least Hitler had some (albeit sick and twisted and detestable) ideals....Tojo,like militant Islamists today, had nothing to offer but death... Apart from that there was nothing, only a void filled with pure hatred. He succeeded in turning many, many other Japanese into fanatical automatons, bent on killing and being killed. Be very afraid, peoples of the Western World: Tojo's ghost and "ideas" live on and manifested itself most spectacularly on the 11th of september 2001. Since then, whether we choose to ignore it or not (and most prefer to do so) we are at war with a bigger threat than the nazis... To think that Iran and Pakistan (where the mullahs soon will rule) control significant nuclear capabilities is a shocking realisation... May God defend the right, which is us, so in your fr*gging faces, bearded, suicide-bombing, wife-beating creeps!! And Tojo, if I ever get to Japan, I'll go to your grave or shrine or whatever the hell it is and p*ss all over it, hell, I might even take a cr*p on it while I'm at it! Two world wars and one world cup, mate, remember that! |
