Here's the new take on WW2 over at the Guardian:
"After the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941, the US government assured the country of retaliation. President Franklin D Roosevelt pandered to anti-Japanese prejudice by establishing internment camps for those West Coast immigrants of such ancestry, however loyal to America. Simultaneously, heroically, came the first air raid on Japan. One of its last survivors, dead at 88, was navigator Nolan Herndon."
