Thought For The Moment: Japan, Pearl Harbor: & Hiroshima
"Pearl Harbor was attacked because USA had a blockade
stopping Japan's most important trade sources over seas. Japan followed
the rules of war and attacked a military target. USA on the other hand, after, wiped out Hiroshima AND Nagazaki, two
civilian cities. Thereby putting themselves on the list as the ONLY
nation that HAS EVER USED NUCLEAR WEAPONS at war, and they chose to wipe
out THOUSANDS OF CIVILIANS. There's probably some deep urge through generations, for revenge."
