  • Incinerating and disfiguring over 200,000 men, women and children doesn't quite equate with Pearl Harbour,a military attack on a military target. To drop the first bomb was appalling, to drop the second on Nagasaki was unconscionable. You won the war all right, and to this day the US remains embroiled in wars that keep killing civilians.

  • I am in the US and I agree with you standalone2

  • I respect Shigeko for not just hating America...( Many people on Youtube just argue who is bad in theory.) Her words are much higher and full of love for human...No excuse. We all responsible for war and peace.

  • @standalone2 Do understand, though, that the nation as a whole does not condone these acts. I was born in the US, but I find the Hiroshima and Nagasaki bombings to be unforgiveable acts of barbarism. Pearl Harbor was a military attack, though that doesn't justify an unprovoked attack either. We can't sit back and allow some third world country to think it can carry out 9/11 like attacks with no repercusions, though. It's a fine line between peace and being a sitting duck for terrorism.

  • It's so sad that there's still "patriotic" (usually retarded inbred religious white hicks from the bible belt) in the US who don't realize the terroristic nature of countless of the US's foreign actions throughout its history.

    For fuck sakes, as the moral "epicenter" of the known world, boasting a superior morality, economic, and military power, there's conscionable and intellectually apt ways to fight a war and "police" the world, and then there's Hiroshima, Nagasaki, Vietnam, Iraq, etc...

  • pearl harbohr was nothing at all compared to the terrible acts we did with hiroshima and nagasaki.when I learned about the 400,000 innocent men women and children we killed with the 2 bombs it made me ashamed of what we did in world war 2.if anyone does'nt agree with me I understand but if you do then thank u

  • oh my god, that was the most heartbreaking thing i've ever seen.

  • Liber AL vel Legis. sub figura CCXX.

  • I had the honor of meeting Shigeko when she was in NM a while ago. She is such a gracious lady, and what a dynamic little person. I was truly blessed to meet her.

  • aww shes tiny shes like the height of a little kid

  • I cannot believe you had the audacity to say this.
