no grudge or hate.....things turned out as well for the Japanese as could have been expected given all that transpired and what may have been.... same for the Germans


seems like racism and hate must play a part in the narrative to help maintain it for some

if Obama wants to be productive and make some "CHANGE" before he goes on permanent vacation...he should put his nose in the air and fly on over to his hometown and drop a little of that professorial brilliance on an area that he is actually familiar with and that truly needs it


“If something doesn’t change, if we don’t get jobs for these kids, if we don’t change the economic situation, I’m worried that we could be looking at a blood bath,” said the Rev. Corey Brooks, a pastor on the city’s South Side, a mostly African-American area where some of the shootings have been concentrated. “If something doesn’t happen, I fear that we’re potentially looking at one of the worst summers we’ve ever had.”

As of Friday morning, homicides in Chicago were up 52 percent in 2016, compared with the same period a year ago, and shootings had increased by 50 percent, though the pace of violence had slowed in recent weeks, the police said. Only five months into the year, at least 233 people had been killed.

Obama hate is like a drug, some people just can't get enough of it.

It's not like Japan is one of the biggest US allies. Hell I think the favor ability ratings of the US in Japan are higher than here.

Do you think the loss of millions, including a million Americans, was worth the delay of the bomb by a few more years?

How many people would be missing from out networks of family and friends without the bomb?

John I have said I dont have an issue with the bomb ending the war I have no doubt it saved many lives ... and returned Men to their families

But I know a field test of a new weapon system when I see one.. the bomb served several different rolls and what a better choice than the less than human Japanese hell our Government did this not to its people of European descent .. But to those who they felt inferior

The Tuskegee Study of Untreated Syphilis in the Negro Male, also known as the Tuskegee Syphilis Study or Tuskegee Syphilis Experiment ("Tuskegee" = /tʌsˈkiːɡiː/)[1] was an infamous clinical study conducted between 1932 and 1972 by the U.S. Public Health Service studying the natural progression of untreated syphilis in rural African-American men in Alabama under the guise of receiving free health care from the United States government.[1]

I just have a hard time understanding why after 71 years people can't see things for what they are not how they appeared 71 years ago .. Japan wont apologize for the same reason people here think Obama Apologized or he shouldn't Nationalism and thats what caused WW2

even snopes calls it http://www.snopes.com/obama-apology-hiroshima/

I didn't see an apology either but what I did see was an American President trashing a potential future President on a foreign land . I'm sick of this narrsisis talking crap about past and future Presidents . It's the least Presidential thing he could do .
