No Apology but Good Thinking

[Unkotare]

2 days before fdr left for the Yalta Convention , MacArthur sent a 40-page letter to the scumbag outlining overtures to surrender he had received. The terms were exactly what Truman accepted after incinerating hundreds of thousands of civilians.

Yeah.......and the Japanese rejected those terms....and continued to fight the war........failed to point that out...didn't you......it took those 2 bombs for them to come around to those terms.....

There's seldom any upside to waking up at 4:30 a.m., but this morning I turned on the telly to find our President just beginning his remarks at Hiroshima. He didn't apologize for anything. It was a great speech. Thoughtful.

At the bottom of the page is a button for "Listen" to full remarks. 17 minutes. Very much worth listening to.

Have a great and peaceful day.

His being there denouncing nuclear weapons is itself a form of apology.

I can see why you might take it that way. But who is their (nukes) cheerleader, except that asshole in North Korea? In a world of restless souls, to be safe you need weapons as big as the other guy. I get that. So does Obama. In trying to limit their increase and spread throughout the world, the right seems to feel he is being a pussy. I think he's being a dreamer working for an unachievable but necessary ideal.

Today he trying to limit weapon jointly for the peace - tomorrow he producing new one, laughing on "stupid peacelovers" and awarding his command by medals of "cold war win" )) I already know this joke...

Where are you from? Russia (just guessing from your hat)? If you think he's funny, wait 'til the next one gets in.

I'm enjoying the all situations US never been invaded for a 150 years, have a largest army and fleet - and you all seriously talking about "enemy aggression"... What is this - paranoia or doublethink? And you claim Russians as crazy, because we have Perimeter system (knowing as Dead Hand ))

I see the ideal you refer to, but it isnt so hidden. Obama is calling for a nuclear free world, but the real world has N Korea and Iran.

US made a good example for them - Yugoslavia and Libya didn't have nuclear weapon for their defence...

Hey geniuses.......you keep telling us Japan was defeated, they were on the verge of collapse....

Then why the fuck didn't they just surrender and spare their people the other bombings of their country long before we used the bombs.......

They could easily have broadcast to allied ships and aircraft their desire to cease hostilities and end the war..........or through other means...........

But they didn't .....did they..........not until the bombs were dropped................

Do you guys ever think before you spew the left wing crap you have been taught your whole lives....?

Or until the USSR took a side of USA, wasting the continental Japan army of about million soldiers for a three weeks? )

If bombing was a reason to Japan to end war - ok. But what if it was just a cruel advertising of nuclear power for USSR?

It would be amusing to learn what you would consider an apology. If Lame Duck President Barack Hussein Obama got down on his knees and begged forgiveness for having saved at least half a million lives on each side?

 

[Markle]

What a stupid comment. Laughing at what? And calling one of our most important allies "japs." Disgusting.

When has the Japanese Emperor visited and left a wreath at Pearl Harbor...and apologized?

 

[Markle]

idiotic move on the part of Obama-------the japs are LAUGHING

What a stupid comment. Laughing at what? And calling one of our most important allies "japs." Disgusting.

Japanese people take offense at being called "Japs" about as much a Canadians take offense at being called "Canucks.

Only thin skinned idiots take offense at words.|

Japanese people have some very CHOICE words for-----"western caucasions" too

Your point being?

 

[Markle]

"japs" is what normal americans called the Japanese aggressors during world war II and when discussing that war. My father was in the north atlantic----on a navy ship during world war II-------he never got over calling german men "fritz"

Germans were called, Huns, Krauts and S*** Eaters, never heard "Fritz" from my Ol' Man.

Untrue. They do most definitely take offense at being called 'Japs.'

Some may. They would be the lowlife, crude, uneducated and unsophisticated types: your comrades in character--low, very low.

 

[Markle]

Those who wish to call war murder are welcome to do so. Those who call bombing civilians murder are correct in doing so.

We were not at war with Japan asshole. Do you got that now?

Semantics. The Japanese diplomats were in the waiting room with the declaration of war when the bombing began on Pearl Harbor.

1994

 

[Markle]

He is creating war.......because he is weak, Russia, China and Iran are preparing for war.....you don't read history do you.....you don't prevent war by being weak....we had peace for decades because we were strong and had nukes and they thought we would use them if they used theirs.......

He is a clueless fool, raised on lies about the world and this country...

We still have the strongest military in the world, and our nukes still work. If anyone lobs a nuke at us, they can bend over and kiss their ass goodbye, because we will be intercepting and then retaliating in a way that will make Hiroshima look like a tea party. What on earth are you talking about?

Lame Duck President Barack Hussein Obama has proven numerous times that his is weak, inept and a narcissist who refuses to listen to his military advisors. President Obama believes he learned everything there is to know about war and military tactics from his friends and professors.

President Obama is guilty of convincing our enemies that they can do with us what they will and the USA will not retaliate in force. In my opinion, that is treason.

No Japanese Emperor or Prime Minister has ever visited Pearl Harbor and apologized.

The morally bankrupt act of terror bombing is so indefensible that these embarrassed attempts to do so only dig the hole deeper. Praising and gloating over the act of vaporizing so many of our fellow creatures is repugnant to any person with even the slightest natural sensitivity.

Me neither. And my GI dad married a German gal, my mom and we were stationed there twice. Kraut was the number one term although my mom had worse names.
