  • my dad is in prison, his mother was dying in the hospital. she had to write down what she was saying so we could understand her. my dad called her, and she was talking fine and acting fine. 5 hours later she died. Some people need that little bit of closure with an inmate before they let go, it happens a lot. so thats all i could think of at the ending. amazing video, should've been the official music video

  • @Kamillian101 dont pay any attention to them they are just jelous that americans have more oppurtunity, resources,welfare, and living conditions. even in our recessions! and if they dont belive us they need to move to america and see for themselves before thay make broad judgments that insult americans because i know that americans are the ones helping other contrys the most who was one of the first to send help to japan? who is helping japan the most? the AMERICANS!!!! (U.S.A)

  • @lds4ever1 Well, you made the first atomic desaster of the world happen in Japan. It´s a good thing you help at the second (along with the rest of the world).

  • @Rallerfeste we had to do that they killed thousands maybe even millions of our naval officers at pearl harbor just because of oil!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! and they were threatining our homeland. if someone was threatining your family or country you most likely would do ANYTHING to stop them ! they killed thousands maybe millions of people who didnt do a thing to them! and guess what we were the first to help hati too. and if your not going to say something nice DONT SAY IT AT ALL!

  • @lds4ever1 Sorry, but that ist nonsens. Japan was not threat to anyone in 1945. At the 9th of July the ambassador of Japan in Moscow wanted to start peace talks. Even General McArthur said 1960, that there was no military necessity to drop the bombs. The bombs were only dopped to prevent the Sowjet Union to declare war on Japan, because then the Sowjets would gain political influence in Asia after the war, like in Europe. Do some history research before you believe in myths.

  • @Rallerfeste I HAVE DONE MY RESERCH!!! THEY DID BOMB PERL HARBOR LOOK IT UP DUMMY THAT IS THE REASON FOR US JOINING THE WAR! REMEMBER PEARL HARBOR! WAS OUR WAR CRY GO AND LOOK IT UP! THEY SUNK USS ARIZONA, USS UTAH,USS OKLAHOLMA,USS NEVADA AND SOOOOO MANY MORE THEY ALSO BOMBED OREGON STATE WHY WOULD THEY BOMB US IF THEY WANTED WORLD PEACE??? AMERICA IS PART OF THE WORLD TOO! ITS CALLED PAY BACK! MILLIONS OF PEOPLE DIED! IDIOT!!!!! THATS A GOOD ENOGH REASON TO GO TO WAR IF I EVER SAW ONE!

  • @lds4ever1 Why do we kill people who kill people to show killing people is wrong?

  • @lds4ever1 You can read, I hope? We talked about the nuclear bombs, not about the start of the war, world peace or whatever. Using the bombs was unnecessary, as I explained to you. And please, don´t overestimate all the time. America lost 90.000 soldiers in the pazific, England, NZ, Australia 120.000, Japan 1.700.000 soldiers and 360.000 civilians. So calm down.

  • @Rallerfeste and @lemonice2700 what even started this argument? oh thats right you commmented on something that was not even directed at you. and where is your place to juge america? look at all of the good things that came out of america and the atomic bomb is one of them if you have problems with the atomic bomb and its purpose go ask Albert Einstein ok! america used the bomb for its purpose. to stop a war! if you have a problem with that take it up with the inventor NOT AMERICA!!!!!!!!!!

  • @lds4ever1 Dear lord, this is so dumb, I hardly know what to say. First: the inventor of the atomic bomb was Oppenheimer (born in NY) and his team of scientists. Second: I´m sure Germany is glad to hear abourt your "argument", because England invented the concentration camps. The germans just used it. And perhaps we blame America for 9/11, because the Wrights invented the plane, the terrorists only used some of them.

    God, what do kids learn in school nowadays?

  • @Rallerfeste no it was einstein e=mc squared ever heared of it? there was a group of people who worked in the manhattan project and albert enistien was their physicist there were many people working in that group but oppenhimer was not listed on the site i looked at so maybe ITS YOU FACTS THAT WERE WRONG and why blame americans for that? airplanes are a blessing its like blaming god for war because he invented people. that makes no sense at all.GOD BLESS AMERICA thease are my final words to you

  • @lds4ever1 You looked it up? Where? Einstein never worked at Los Alamos, his theory paved the way, but he never worked at the atomic bomb. J. Robert Oppenheimer was the scientific director of the Manhattan Project, everyone knows that! And it was you who wrote "if you have a problem with that take it up with the inventor ". "Use Google (or wikipedia) and READ" are MY final words for you.

  • @Rallerfeste No, Japan had taken over the Pacific, they had parts of China, Taiwan, and others. The US was the only country (they were in the Axis powers) that they feared. That is why the bombed P.H. - I am a history major

  • @edh12993 Again: I´m talking about 1945, not the start of the war (and even then...we can talk about the different peace agreements that Japan offered to the US in 1941 before the war, which were refused). In 1945 Japan was no real threat anymore, they offered peace talks in July 45. There was no need to drop atomic bombs, especially after the Soviets declared war on Japan and invaded Manchuria. And by the way, I have a degree in history, too.

  • @Ids4ever1 how could you THINK that japan was NOT A THREAT. Japan was a HUGE THREAT. japan bombed pearl harbor. japan strafed pearl harbor. japan killed thousands of our people. In fact, they saw US as a threat. that is why they bombed us. If you think that japan is not a threat, go take a vacation to pearl harbor. signs that the japan bombed it are everywhere. there is a memorial for the Arizona out at sea, where you can actually see the ship.

  • @Ids4ever1 I appreciate you standing up for me with your other comment, but your history is not true. I bet that EVERY SINGLE American that sees this conversation will tell you that you are WRONG. Do some history before you believe in myths and lies.

  • why is the soldier wearing a British helmet??????
