OK. So what? No one is saying that Eastwood is the first to fail at humanizing his secondary characters. It's a pretty common flaw.

Not to mention the first Superman cartoons. Those were some Jap-hating Hollywood types.
Is there a single WWII movie that humanizes the Nazis or the Japanese?
Now you've gone too far. He masturbated three animals!Of course he's not required to. But it's a flaw of the film's that the villians are wooden. What Eastwood "sought to do" doesn't save it from that criticism. Tom Green "sought to" make a gross-out comedy, "Freddy Got Fingered." He succeeded in that. It's still a shirtty movie.
To your first question, yes and yes.Is there a single WWII movie that humanizes the Nazis or the Japanese?
Did Lucas humanize the Storm Troopers?
Is the logic here that mistakes don't matter if they are reincarnated? I'm not sure why Eastwood's failure to learn from others' flaws makes this malady of the movie more excusable.OK. So what?

YF admitting he hasn't seen the movie is the topper.
That's just the forking best.
Nothing. Haven't read the book, or seen the movie.
I just think its funny how upset certain folks are about this one movie not being 100% accurate.
And, again, I'm no expert on Kyle. The wife just bought the hard copy of the book, but hasn't read it yet, so I probably won't see the movie right away.
