NAGASAKI, Japan (AP) -- A siren wailed and a bronze bell rang out through the air Tuesday as Nagasaki marked the exact moment 60 years ago that an American airplane appeared in its skies and dropped the plutonium bomb "Fat Man," killing some 80,000 people and sealing Japan's defeat in World War II.
About 6,000 people, including hundreds of aging bomb survivors, crowded into Nagasaki's Peace Memorial Park, just a few hundred meters (yards) from the center of the blast, for a solemn remembrance and moment of silence.
When the silence ended, Nagasaki Mayor Iccho Itoh had some angry words for the leaders of the nuclear powers, and especially the United States.
"To the citizens of the United States of America: We understand your anger and anxiety over the memories of the horror of the 9-11 terrorist attacks," he said.

Happy N-day everybody. This affected the surrender of people who:
- conducted surgical experiments against Americans with no Anesthetic.
-Who bayonetted Americans who couldn't keep up the pace of the 60 mile march before stopping.
Fanatical suiciders, like the Islam crazies of today.
Everyone think about that before weeping for the Nagasaki "victims".
They need to read "Faith of Our Fathers" to understand the sacrifices of the American soldier and the hideousness of the Japanese as they tortured Americans.
Those who forget history are doomed to repeat it. And I'm sure they don't want to do that.
But if the situation were to present itself again, we would nuke them again. No question.
Yeah, just imagine Osama's version of an enlightened USA.

Happy Nagasaki Day
Shouldn't have started it in the first place.
"Yeah, just imagine Osama's version of an enlightened USA."
In the ultimate cruel irony, Jane Fonda and Barbara Streisand would be oppressed and forced to wear burqas and veils, no skin allowed to be shown.
There is always a catch.
And if any of them were raped or attacked, they would have no right to defend themselves. In fact, they would be stoned to death for adultery and/or fornication.
THANK YOU! And right back at ya!

Would that include Helen Thomas and Hitlery?
Hmmmnnn. Maybe we should rethink this islam thing.
Amazing Pictures.
It's funny, you hear about "survivors" of Hiroshima and invariably they were child labor for one of the local military installations.
America to Japan: "Do you know who I am? Do you want me to do that again?"
A friend of mine was stationed at Pearl Harbor. Whenever a Japanese tourist asked where the Arizona memorial was he'd say, it's right where you left it M-***ker.
Great guy to work with, a million stories.
