Re: May We Never Forget Hiroshima (B&W)
I'm sorry, I'm new here...but I'm pretty sure that England was, and indeed still is, something of a superpower in the world. If I remember my history correctly...less than 50, maybe 60 or so years before the Second World War, the English Empire ruled over a quarter of the Earth's surface, making it the largest empire in terms of territory and finance yet seen in history.

Re: May We Never Forget Hiroshima (B&W)
Your half right, it was several hundred years before when England was a big empire. USA kinda ended that in the revolution. Now the are a very powerful country, but due to size they really can't be considered a super power. Not that they need to be, USA will always defend England as if it was US soil.

Re: May We Never Forget Hiroshima (B&W)
What ever comic book you found that in was wrong. The Emporer wanted to surrender, as did his government - but Japan at the time was ruled actually by the Army and military leaders who refused to surrender. It actually took a coup of sorts within Japan to take back control and submit the surrender, but that was AFTER Nagasaki. |

Re: May We Never Forget Hiroshima (B&W)
Trey shut the fuck up. You're making this shit up, and you're just making a fool of yourself. Everyone knows the real story, and you're just making yourself look like the juvenile moron I'm sure you are. You're not here, you've never been to Japan (I have) and you don't know SQUAT about US history, so don't pretend to. You're an embarassment. We don't preach about Irish history, so don't think you can preach to us. That's all I have to say - you are worth ignoring and that's exactly what I intend to do. |
