Apologetic Hiroshima and defiant America

Um - the US helped them a LOT.

The Japanese also gave up having a military and stopped attacking the rest of the world.

You _sure_ some Muslims could learn from them now?

Context of the atomic bombs dropped on Japan: Japan had just succeeded to kill and rape millions of people between 1930 and 1945..I'm not saying that 'two wrongs make a right' but what I am saying is that this issue is much more complex than simply saying "US EVIL."  Way more complex.

For instance read about the massacre of Nanking by the Japanese army in 1937-1938:

1. There are numerous "TRUE" primary sources available to prove this event did occur.
2. There are 300,000 (estimated + or -) dead people from Nanking that say this event happened. That comes out to 8,095 murders/day compared to only 879/day at Auschwitz.
3. There are 35,000,000 (estimated) Chinese causalties from this period that say it happened.
4. There are 57,418 victims of the Caoxiexia Slaughter that say Nanking was for real.
5. There are 7 Japanese Class A War Criminal that hung, because of their guilt.
6. The Japanese soldiers admit what they did, you can read about it.

Also read more here:
In December 1937, Nanjing fell to the Japanese Imperial Army. The Japanese army launched a massacre for six weeks. According to the records of several welfare organizations which buried the dead bodies after the Massacre, around three hundred thousand people, mostly civilians and POWs, were brutally slaughtered.

Over twenty thousand cases of rape were reported. Many of the victims were gang raped and then killed. The figure did not include those captives who were sent to army brothels (the so-called "comfort stations").

The actual Memorial Hall is built to commemorate the victims.

The actual Hall is located in Jiangdongmen (The Gate on the Eastern Bank of the River), one of the sites where countless human bones of the victims of the Massacre were excavated. It is just one of those "wan ren keng" (pit of ten thousand corpses) which can be found in many Japanese occupied areas in China during the war.

No argument here, B - what Japan did in the early part of the 20th century was absolutely evil.

Ask the Koreans, the Chinese, the "comfort women", WWII survivors, their relatives, etc.

Kim...

Hey, no argument there, either!
