Damn Amerikkkans - They are SOOOOOOO Mean
2004-02-28
The bombing 50 years ago Monday provoked huge protests in Japan and reinforced the image of the Japanese - the target of the Hiroshima and Nagasaki attacks - as unique witnesses to the atomic age. "We were the victims of the nuclear arms race," said Oishi, 70, who runs a laundry in Tokyo and recently published a book on the bombing.
Mmmmmmm... right.

#3   Victims,Victims,as far as the eye can see!Yes you were the victims-of your brutal,aggressive militaristic government that started the war w/ US,whose troops massacred houndreds of thousands in China,who didn't surrender after Hiroshima bombing,and had major elements that after Nagasaki
wanted to fight on until either America lost so many dead the US quit or the Japanese people were exterminated.When the Japanese apologize to the US,China,Phillipines,Thailand,Vietnam,India,Burma,Australia,Britain,Indonesia for starting the Pacific War and the way Japan conducted the war,then I might have sympathy for civilians in Japan who were bombed-atomic,incendiary or hi-explosive.And I haven't forgotten that Japan tried to set the Pacific Northwest Forest ablaze in the hopes that Seattle would burn,thus destroying Boeing factory there.But until the Japanese people and government sincerely apologize,F*** the protestor/victims and the horse they rode on!

#2  ZF in those days international law restricted terittorial waters to I believe 12 miles and anything beyond that would be the high seas and anyone could fish in it. The men were 100 miles off Bikini Atoll.

#1  These guys were in American waters. What the heck were they doing there? This'll teach 'em to go poaching in foreign waters.
