Yea, pretty much.
Yea, pretty much.Ahh so in essance..its like the Japanese leaders bombed their own people right?
The director? sokka. His meaning doesnt matter but the point stays that the bombing wasnt to save lives.
Im not sure if its your intention but are you suggesting that Hiroshima was fair revenge?
Isnt the answer of "those innocent people were not enolved" enough?
Does this reply mean that 2 wrongs make a right?
To dull it down its like a gang member commiting a crime against your family and you going into their neighbourhood and petrol bombing a random home, not caring who you hurt or kill doing so.
Lets not forget that a bomb is a bomb. But an A-Bomb is one that poisins the land for years affects the next generations who in this age just crave for peace.
Tell me what the current levels of radiation are in Hiroshima, if they are dangerous, and just how long they were dangerous for
.Lets face facts - Hiroshima was the location of the Second General Army HQ. Hiroshima was a major industrial harbour town. Hiroshima was where most of the soldiers disembarked to go overseas and kill innocent civilians in countries throughout Asia.
Hiroshima was not some random town.
The schoolchildren had been evacuated in March (1945). Those remaining were (forced) to work for the government in assisting the military by working in factories or directly related positions. Those who remained were aware that their country was at war, and that Hiroshima was a target
Japan could have easily saved all the lives in Hiroshima by surrendering when they realized that they had no chance of winning the war and that continued battle would only mean more death, with no gain for them. Instead they went the other way, telling their people to arm themselves with sharpened bamboo poles and fight against soldiers toting firearms. There was no reason to assume that Americans would stop bombing cities, the way they did with Tokyo, so in effect, the Japanese government was writing a death warrant for its citizens, and as Ewok pointed out, there were those who were unwilling to stand down even after Americans decimated two of their cities with nuclear weapons.LOL LOL LOL LOL what a funny way of thinking. after all Japan knew that america had that top secret bomb and i guess that means that in the long run they wanted to be bombed in order to save lives.
Caster whether or not you want to accept the following is one thing, however it would help you to understand the reasons for the bombs being dropped by looking the the logistical nightmare and casualty projections, gleened from previous land battles with the Japanese Imperial Army to understand some of the reasons or rational behind using the atomic bombs in Hiroshima and Nagasaki.they did not worry of civilian's life at all ??
The government willingly invited the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Japanese people for the sole purpose of avoiding surrender, and to that extent, one could say that the government bombed its own people.
Well, if Japan had only signed the Treaty of Potsdam together with Germany in 1945,then there would never have been those horrible A-bombs on Nagasaki and Hiroshima.
But the order in Japan to all people was: "Fight until the last man".
Google Kyoto Kyushu
As Kyoto was the target, few air-raid, this was the same in Hiroshima & Nagasaki, but it was true there were rational Americans then.
to all japanese, american surely dropped A-bomds to kill us indiscriminately in Japan.
in human history, it was the cruellest thing.
to tell the truth, I give up it as "shikataganai" to calm my mind becase of WAR.
I realized many civilians still hate them.
I am really sorry to say that..............................
USA was an evil ..
Elizabeth Japan was still at war with the "Allies" at the time of Potsdam and from what I remember of history of the time, were not included in the conference nor invited as well.
Japan was warned however from a declaration from the conference to surrender or face total anihilation.
it is natural to do thatRemember the US never bombed Kyoto, as it was considered to be at that time as well as a cultural heritage site. The US had the capability at the time to turn the Japanese islands into a virtual wasteland. The rulers of Japan at the time choose not to surrender, they KNEW they were defeated but fought a war of attrition. However the US, even though sick of war was going to finish the job one way or the other.
it was a same to kill.Think about it, Nagasaki was 100% preventable it took getting hit over the head twice before the powers that be here in Japan decided that surrender was the only "honorable" way out of the predicament that they were in at the time
it is natural to do that
it was a same to kill.
why dont use a-bomd in Iraq to quit
But caster51, how can you say such a thing?
The Iraqi don't deserve an A-bomb at all!
Neither would I wish Japan an A-bomb from North Korea
abe's approval rating will be UP?
Yes, because we should base military policy on, and interperet history through, pop culture films.Has anyone seen gladiator with russel crowe? at the beginning one of the men says something like "people should know when they have been conquered" Russel replys " would you?"
Thats the way you have interpereted it. If i wanted you to hear my view i would of wrote it. the point is to make people think or maybe, just maybe try to understand the thoughts.
With the believe you have writen i dont think you know whcih part im talking about.
