thats terrible.Didn't you know? Obama and his people stated that it was ok to use drone strikes, on American citizens, on American soil. The Congress and courts disagreed with him.
No..I don't pay much attention to politicians. see previous thread about mexican coke.
Americans don't even like their own coca-cola.
thats terrible.
No wonder everyone in america is paranoid.
uh, weren't there more than 1 million causalties of the bomb anyway? So instead of their own people dying, they killed some other people in another country. And thats ok. Because americans don't think their govt is god ordained?
I think they do as well.
The Japanese people of that era thought of the Emperor as divine. As in, he was a god. They, civilians included, willingly committed suicide for him. The military leaders in the US realized that with that level of fanaticism, an invasion of the main islands would cost more than 1 million casualties. So, they had the bomb and used it.
It is always so easy for subsequent generations to criticize the hard choices that their predecessors made. I find it ironic that most people today who have never experienced suffering or loss in any capacity can be so quick to judge those who were in the midst of world turmoil. I'm not necessarily defending the atomic bomb, but it wasn't some trigger happy snap judgement.
And seeing my post on your computer screen within that photo is...cool.
