>>кстати говоря - если русские проводят атаку и несут большие потери, то это описывается как бессмысленное заваливание мясом, а если японцы, то как триумф самурайского духа и преданности императору.

Начнем с Вики http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Kamikaze
Although kamikaze was the most common and best-known form of Japanese suicide attack during World War II, they were similar to the "banzai charge" used by Japanese soldiers. The main difference between kamikaze and banzai is that suicide is essential to the success of a kamikaze attack, whereas a banzai charge is only suicidal — that is, the attackers hope to survive but do not expect to. Western sources often incorrectly consider Operation Ten-Go as a kamikaze operation, since it occurred at the Battle of Okinawa along with the mass waves of kamikaze planes; however, banzai is the more accurate term, since the aim of the mission was for battleship Yamato to beach herself and provide support to the island defenders, as opposing to ramming and detonating among enemy naval forces. The tradition of suicide instead of defeat, capture, and perceived shame was deeply entrenched in the Japanese military culture. It was one of the main traditions in the samurai life and the Bushido code: loyalty and honor until death.
А у Ванек кодекса Бушидо нет и поэтому у них подобные фокусы можно звать просто заваливанием мясом.
