But I have been to a few museums with friends visiting Japan that surprised them and I a lot. They were about the atrocities committed by Japan during it's military control. The common perspective towards it all by the educated populace of Japan is one of shame for it's history. The common perspective towards it all by the average populace of Japan is "that was the past, it's not us, we are peaceful now and very happy about that" In the wake of the recent events involving NK, most people I speak to here say "I'm scared, and I'm glad that Japan is peaceful so I imagine we would only get involved if we absolutely must" Regardless of whether or not that is true, it's the common opinion, which in terms of culture is what defines a nation more than the actions of it's politicians. |

danny, how come most of the sane world believes it was just a cover up? because it is so obvious. if there was a threat of another terrorist attack any normal leader would send in assassins to kill Osama and not start a war were half of the world is dragged in. the oil is the only real reason why anyone is there.
and found what? 2 cars as you say? still the report said there where WMD. so... if this war was legit why the need to falsify the report? BECAUSE ITS NOT! btw. i love your speech about aggressors - comes from a citizen of a country which has had 10 major wars in 200 years. war in every 20 years - just bombing for "peace". |

I am glad to see that there is some information re the Military Japanese atrocities. Their descendants need to know. Yes at peace now--but it still demonstrated how the worst comes out of human beings in these wars. They did not adhere to the Geneva convention-- so abusing those who were in their power The emperors Uncle was implicated as well as that TOJO-- The military regime was all controlling of its people also. I have the book SENSO which is a collection of letters sent to the ASAHI SHIMBUM in 1986 from those japanese who were involved in the war as well as the surviving civilians who were fire bombed. It is well worth reading the book. |

sane? people who can clearly see the BS thrown at their screens about WMD when oils is all everyone is after.
no 3rd world leader is restarted enough to lunch nukes on strongest military force in the world. not making into 51st state? well then it would be even more obvious why usa is there. at least now they have the lame excuse of WMD. at least was... of course he blocked inspections. would you allow Russians to just walk in and check out your military stock? |

The terms to end the fighting in 91 were signed by Saddam and part of the conditions were UN Inspectors. ..The moment Saddam threw the UN inspectors out, he broke the terms he signed and thus gave the US full right and authority to invade, by International law. WMD's or not.
