Ghost of Tokyo Rose

By: Pam On: Jun/26/06 - 7 Comments

A wonderful piece by David Horowitz

Here’s an item that’s been traveling around the web:

Anyone who remembers anything about World War II or has studied anything about World War II will understand and remember that during World War II, the Japanese
developed a way to demoralize the American forces. The Japanese psychological warfare experts developed a message they felt would work.

They gave their psychological warfare script to their famous broadcaster “Tokyo Rose” and every day she would broadcast this same message packaged in different ways, hoping it would have a negative impact on American GI’s morale.

What was that demoralizing message? It had three main points:

1. Your President is lying to you.
2. This war is illegal.
3. You cannot win the war

    Soldiers who believe in such simple black&white statements to have a reason to fight or stop fighting are the most suitable victims a military leader could have.

    War requires clever people to give orders and dumb folks to obey!

    Hmmm…Sounds like Tokyo Murtha, or Hanoi Chapatratitor Ted.

    i heard some talk about Murtha on the radio, and it is starting to look like “highly-decorated Murtha” is another phony like Kerry!

    Nowadays it’s much easier for the enemy. They don’t have to do anything. The traitors and boll weevils, led by Chapatraitor “Abu Ghraib” Ted, Turban Durbin, “In Cold Blood” Murtha, and phony hero “Cut and run” Kerry are doing their work for them. With the aid of the leakers and the MSM, like the NYT, plus the general traiterous Left, the enemy is able to get their message out far better and do great damage to the morale and psyche of the American public. Fortunately our troops aren’t buying it.

    Are you referring to your fellow countrymen for allowing Hitler to rise and somehow justifying the killing of the Jews?

    Actually Snowy they don’t. Until his switching sides after being passed over for a promotion he felt he deserved, Benedict Arnold was in fact a well regarded and decorated war hero. The rest of them are not. Tokyo Rose was tried for war crimes for her broadcasts. Isn’t it sad that we have multiple Senators, Congressmen and a former President who don’t even come up to the level of Benedict Arnold?
