"Yesterday, December 7th..."

Since the date of infamy, since Pearl Harbor was bombed by Japan, many lives were lost and the Arizona sank entombing crewmen beneath the water.


Let's keep their message alive.

[Fran]

...That was December 7th.

[DBella]

We should remember Pearl Harbor not just yesterday (Dec.7th), but everyday.

[Addendum]

I found this video on the youtube

[GoldenAgeHero]

what about the lives who were lost in japan where the nukes dropped

I feel bad for both sides.

[Jerry!]

Oh please god. Please, please please. I don't believe in you but don't let this thread go down the route I see it going. It was only a matter of time I guess.

[bell110]

My grandmother would have been 90 today :(

[Arkady Rossovich]

I know someone who is half Japanese...and war is heartless.

There was a thread made about it a couple months ago

[Not Jake]

Why. I don't even remember that Hawaii exists 90% of the time

I could argue this so much, but I'll just stop for the sake of my sanity.

:dry:

[Fran]

What about the Japanese provoking that attack?

[Kritish]

:dry:

So having our innocent civilians killed means we can kill their innocent civilians? Ever heard of the phrase "two wrongs don't equal a right"?

[Fran]

If we didn't do that, who knows how World War II would have ended.

[Ash J. Williams]

My grandpa was in Pearl Harbor...and no one seems to care.

[Kritish]

If we didn't do that, who knows how World War II would have ended.

Japan was loosing the war. They would have fallen without the use of nukes.

I doubt these children were responsible for Pearl Harbor.

[Fran]

We can go at it all day, Kritish.

But the main thing is, Japan shouldn't have bombed us in the first place.

The military was aiming for a quick fix, to end the goddamn war, to make sure they "loose"

[Kritish]

But the main thing is, Japan shouldn't have bombed us in the first place.


That's not what's up for debate, that fact isn't a "do whatever the **** you want" card.

[Fran]

Then why did Japan do it then? They used their "Do whatever the f*** you want" card on us.

[Jerry!]

Goddamn not even a page and it already came down to this argument. Look whether you agree or not on the nukes being used it doesn't matter, it isn't the point of this thread, it isn't the topic so just drop it. That is what isn't up for debate in this thread. The topic is remembering and honoring those who lost their lives at Pearl Harbor. Anyone have any relatives that was present during the bombings?

[Fran]

Yeah, I'm gonna stop. I've already got a fever.

[Kritish]

Then why did Japan do it then? They used their "Do whatever the f*** you want" card on us.

So a man breaks into your house and kills your family. Does that mean you get to kill his entire family too? I didn't think so. 95 percent of the people in Hiroshima and Nagasaki were innocent people.

Come on man...

[Kritish]

Come on man...

I didn't even start the debate. :huh:

[Fran]

I should have realized you'd come in here looking to argue with anyone, I apologize for triggering the Kritish signal.

[Badger]

So you're taking up GAH's debate?

Start a thread then.

BTW your avvy disturbs me. :heart:

Oh japan was just asking for it

[Fran]

Edit the post, immediately. You don't know what you're triggering.

[C. Lee]

I didn't even start the debate. :huh:

This thread isn't for debate. The thread starter said it was to honor the people killed at the attack of Pearl Harbor.

If you want to debate the bombing of Hiroshima....start a thread for that purpose.

eh too late I think I can take some pointless debate
(even though I really just don't want to :csad: )

[unstoppable]

My thoughts goes out to anybody who had any relative that died at Pearl Harbor :csad:

[Jack Rabbit]

We had a ceremony here at the chapel yesterday, I wrote a story on the guest speaker -- a guy who was on the USS Tennessee. The turnout for the ceremony was dismal, not even a quarter of the chapel was filled. And it was mostly vets. Sad.

Their generation gave a lot more than ours ever will, and no one seems to care any more.

[Mr.Webs]

Let's never forget folks. And please, let's not cloud this thread with an endless debate.
