@kjh6770 There is …
@kjh6770 There is not near enough of a black opposition to materialistic mainstream hip hop culture as there should be. Sadly, the ghetto often still falls for the easy sell rather than getting interested in really improving the culture – the culture that created jazz, blues and the original rock n’ roll. Just sad.
“Since they had …
“Since they had Japan’s surrender two weeks before they drop the bomb all these things combined made them the prime target.”
Sooo, you are telling me we bombed a nation that had surrendered two weeks before hand? And we HAD to do that?
*they weren’t sure
*they weren’t sure
The first time yes …
The first time yes because according the engineers they where sure what was going to happen the 1st time they used it on a populated area.
Since they had Japan’s surrender two weeks before they drop the bomb all these things combined made them the prime target.
As for the country’s I couldn’t say.
Sooo, our threat to …
Sooo, our threat to use nukes against anyone that threatened us in the 1950s and 1960s was just a matter of geography? Funny, most of the countries had brown skinned people. Korea, Vietnam……twice, China, Cuba and the list goes on. Oh right, Russia was white……..except for all the minorities. Sorry, I just don’t buy geography as a legitimate reason.
The main reason is …
The main reason is that Japan is an island so if it all went tits up the only land that would be lost is Japan and not the whole of Europe.
I think the racism helped but its manly down to geography.
and anyone who …
and anyone who doesn’t is a moron
TRUE
TRUE
QUESTIONING AMERICA …
QUESTIONING AMERICA IS UNAMERICAN
holy man.
holy man.
Because Germans are …
Because Germans are white and Japanese are brown and thus less human. My best friend of 50 years is Japanese-American and there is nooo doubt about it in his mind nor mine either.
Once he said to me,”When you guys sent your battleships to open up Japan to trade with the U.S., WE called YOU the barbarians.” We wanted their riches at any cost.
Just as we didn’t send German or Italian Americans to concentration camps, we didn’t use the A-bomb on Germany. It really is that cut and dried.
Not until now. I …
Not until now. I can’t believe I never thought of that before.
Why do you think they didn’t?
Historically slave …
Historically slave trading was common in the middle-east. If you want to do a little research it’s easy to find this information. And slavery was illegal in Britain in 1102CE.
‘…sipping tea’? are you aware that the aristocracy formed only a small portion of the population in Britain? The majority of British subjects were peasant farmers who had close to zero income.
You need to seperate fact from fantasy.
Ever wonder why we …
Ever wonder why we did not use use the A-bomb on Germany?
I think the media …
I think the media took what he said out of context a bit, because what he is saying is true, the United States has a history of being very brutal to people in military fascistic ways, and thinking about it can be very frustrating. But forgiveness is necessary, other wise we can’t heal.
GOD AMERICA!!! …
GOD AMERICA!!!!!!!
The British got …
The British got rich by exploiting nation wealth. While they were sipping tea and owning slaves, the rest of the Iranian living in misrable condition. It was colonialism and now the Iranian is the enemy.
Fox News wants to …
Fox News wants to maintain and expand the white power structure. Billo said so to McCain.
I think America is …
I think America is a pretty racist country. American in the US means whites. I believe whites American despite all non-white men. The subtle message in the US media is that whites is better than everyone else. In the US, a white person life is worth more than 100 non-whites person. A death of a white soldier, a missing white person, or a white child will be reported for days in the media, but they will never humanize any non-white person. Sad.
America is an …
America is an aggresive fascist empire that must be stopped
If Reagan or …
If Reagan or Roosevelt were in a church where they burned crosses do you think people would vote for them? I guess bo is lucky for the largest amount of voter fraud in the history of the world.
Justification of …
Justification of one evil act by the method “Others have also done evil acts” does not get any instance of evil off the hook. This applies to each of your three comments.
Wright is pointing out some often overlooked evils. Perhaps the most egregious of them is his opening lines about Native Americans, which we slaughtered by the score after stealing their property.
Funny how we get …
Funny how we get the speech about havin a right relationship with God yet no condemnation of a hip hop culture that brainwashes and feeds young black youth the lies of instant riches, the need to be “tough”, situational ethics, the degradation of woman as objects instead of individuals, or the glamourization of stupidity instead of the expectation of learning and excellence. Nope, rather we get a speech about all the problems with the American government under the guise religious improvement.
Correct me if I’m …
Correct me if I’m wrong but doesn’t it take two to tango? Do the tribes in Africa that sold their brothers, sisters and other family members or tribesmen ever shoulder any of the blame for slavery in the 16th through 19th century or was it just the “evil white Europeans?” Fun how some people get a pass for the horrors of the past while others shoulder all the blame. I believe that’s called a double standard. every nation and culture has its dark side so watch the stones your thrownin.
Okay so the U.S. is …
Okay so the U.S. is the bad guy in WWII for dropping a bomb on Japan, now tell me the truth, who started WWII with aspirations of world dominations? Oh..that’s right its was Hitler! Guess you left that little tidbit of truth out. So when the Japanese stopped all diplomatic relations with the US two days before Pearl Harbor and did not open up negotiation until after the A-Bomb, that’s somehow America’s fault? Choosing to save your own soldiers over someone else’s is wrong? Is there another way?
