And we have to look at the attack on Pearl Harbor in 1941 through the prism that America was the aggressor and Japan was a victim. With the community organizer there always has to be an agressor and a victim.

Thank you for link.. this was a Q for the 0 Visits to Hiroshima, Nagasaki Q: White House senior officials said that you would be interested in visiting Hiroshima and Nagasaki at some point in the future. Do you have a time frame in mind for that visit? A: As I said myself during my visit to Japan last year, I would be honored to visit Hiroshima and Nagasaki at some point in the future. Japan and the United States understand, better than any two nations in the world, what these terrible weapons can do. That is why we are working together to prevent the spread of nuclear weapons and to advance the vision that I outlined in Prague--a world without nuclear weapons. But I have also made it clear that, so long as these weapons exist, the United States will maintain a strong and effective nuclear deterrent that guarantees the defense of our allies, including Japan.

Scroll down, FRiend. You will see that the man said absolutely NOTHING of importance nor substance.

Also, one good thing is, he appears to have knocked off that ridiculous over-bowing while in Japan. He still has maybe 12 more hours here, so we will see if he makes any major flubs.
