Barack Obama departed on the latest leg of his worldwide apology tour last week, as he became the first U.S. president to visit the Japanese city of Hiroshima, where the first atomic bomb of WWII fell.
Amid outrage, Obama promised that he would not apologize for our use of the bomb during his visit, but failed spectacularly in that endeavor. Sure, he didn’t say “I’m sorry,” but he still managed to cite our nation’s actions as proof of “man’s capacity to do evil.”
But that isn’t him admitting any wrongdoing. Right.
Despite his sympathetic remarks, some people in the region aren’t happy with our president’s apology-but-not-in-name. That’s because, while our president seems fixated on our country’s actions during the war, he seems to be ignoring Japan’s long history of despicable warfare against their own enemies.
No people know this better than the people of Korea. See why they’re upset with both countries on the next page:
Just remember that Obama is speaking for himself not America.
Give him time Korea he is not thru kissing ass
Maybe he will go to north Korea.
Well hows it feel, hes been ignoring us for 8 years
he didn’t Apologize and he doesn’t speak for me anyway and I’m not sorry about Either one
Obama sucks! The great apologist! What a transgendered abomination!
does really apologize to Japanese people by MR.Obama? please someone to me the fact.
congress needs to censure
That is what I was wondering. Japan was responsible for millions of deaths in China and the surrounding countries. 3.6 million in China, 475K in Indochina, 378K in Korea, 375K in Indonesia, 283K in Singapore, 119K in Philippines, 60K Burma, and another 57K in the Pacific Islands. As terrible as it was its estimated that dropping the bombs save several hundred thousand American lives vs. an invasion of Japan. I think everyone should learn from history.
He has never apologized to America!
