Perhaps I was being too obtuse. What I meant by separating the
Pacific war from the European war didn't have to do with our analysis
of the forces at work in one place as opposed to those in another.
It was much more practical and, in part, simply a rhetorical point....
Do you specify if you're buying or selling war bonds that they should
be used for one and not the other? Or if you volunteer or get
drafted, do you specify that you're doing it for one and not the
other? How do you resist one and support the other?
This is a bit like the "progressives" who think they can separate the
Iraq occupation from "the good war" in Afghanistan. Even assuming
that such an analysis is correct, what does it mean in the real world?
