Re: Happy Nagasaki Day
Be careful what you hope for - the day might come when we will be very pleased to drop one in anger!

Oh I don't know, think of the improvements this could bring to Liverpool.

Re: Happy Nagasaki Day
I know a few Japanese and like them. I get damned angry that it took two for the buggers to jack it in, particularly since it was long after the writing was on the wall. What an infernal bloody waste. Hirohito deserved to dangle, along with his entire cabinet and military hierarchy at the hands of his own folk for what he put them through, even if we weren't prepared to do the polite.
We need people who look to the stars, holding the nation and the world in their hearts but at the same time we need down-to-earth people who can do serious and trying work.
In a definite sense, a country's power and prestige isn't only a reflection of its economic power but also a reflection of its people's quality and morality. Moreover, I think the latter is actually more important in the long-term.

Re: Happy Nagasaki Day
Did I miss Happy Rape of Nanking day?
Half a million dead Chinese don't seem to merit the same attention as 70,000 Japanese.
During the Second Sino-Japanese War 20-35 million Chinese were butchered. Perhaps a little commemoration of the Three Alls Policy, those alls being: "Kill All", "Burn All" and "Loot All" would be a appropriate.That's the most foul, cruel, and bad-tempered rodent you ever set eyes on!
