Oh, and the Japanese have not pulled together in their time of extreme crisis and helped each other?! Are you for real, man? You obviously have not seen the MANY reports of them doing just that. And for God's sake, the nuclear workers knew they were going on suicide missions and resigned themselves to that fate for the sake of the greater good. The Japanese have handled themselves extremely well and with much compassion for their fellow human beings. As well as the many news reports which you have chosen to ignore apparently for the sake of putting down another culture in order to erroneously say, "See, us Uhmmurrrrkins are better, yessiree," I have been getting first-hand reports from a friend who lives there and has testified repeatedly to the stoic grace in which these people have handled their drastic situation.
