The conference of foreign ministers of the G-7 took place in Hiroshima City on April 10th and 11th. Hiroshima would remind lots of people of the first-ever use of an atomic bomb in 1945. There seven foreign ministers got together and had talks about several world-wide issues. After the meeting, they visited the Hiroshima Peace Memorial Museum in which lots of records about the atomic bomb are displayed and it's next the symbolic ruin, Hiroshima Dome, destroyed by the bombing. The bombing slaughtered more than 100,000 in a moment and totally about 140,000 by the end of the year 1945. People who didn't die in a moment died a slow and painful death. Incidentally, I know who did it. Everyone in the world knows who did it.
I had a keen interest in the comment from the Secretary of State, John Kerry. His comment was so-so. It would be as good as it gets. Classified documents will become open one by one from now on. I think that the earlier the U.S. issues an apology the better. The U.S. will be sure to become bothered by guilt. What the hell did Japan do? Did Japan do anything bad? Who wanted to wage the war? What did the U.S. get in World War II? Maybe only the seeds of the Korean and Vietnam War. I have a document which I want you to read. (LINK)
