    Hey guys! We took a step away from van life for a couple of days to explore Nagasaki and it easily became one of our favourite Japanese cities. Have you visited Nagasaki or Hiroshima before? If not, are they on your list of places to go?

      Yes. Both. Nagasaki was great. I was given 1 request from a gal who was a little girl in 1945, when she comes to pick me up, don't mention about what I saw. Very quiet car ride home. I can't begin to imagine her experience before and after. Her daughter and I remain close. Its time to go back and introduce the city and the history now, to my daughter!

    Was in Navy at Sasebo. Went to visit Peace Park during Cherry Blossoms. Beautiful day with a lot of the locals there with blankets, binto boxes and Saki. Shared their food and drink with them. So gratuitous! Waiting for a cherry blossom to fall in my sake cup. It was a good luck sign! Never forgotten that day 50 years ago!!

      Hmm that's a great question. I'm also not quite sure about the onsen etiquette! But from all the times we've been to onsen's, I've only ever seen younger children (maybe up to 5) in the opposite sex bath. This onsen also has family baths that you can hire for 60 minutes. It's more expensive and maybe the view isn't as good but it could be the best way to go.

      ​​@@williampitt1537Emperor Hirohito was a puppet of the military government. He appointed General Tojo because he was loyal to him and thought he was the only one who could stop the army from going further into the war. While I don't 100% trust what I read, it's very feasible considering Japanese mentality and human habits. In the end, Hirohito didn't do anything to stop the war. Pressure from the military must've been strong.
      The worst trait of Japanese is people don't risk speaking up if they are in minority.
      Emperor Hirohito didn't strike me as a charismatic leader with massive ego like starlin or hitler.
      From my Japanese standpoint, I think the emperor got carried away rather than proactively involved, but it doesn't mean that he was innocent either.
      Do you really believe that dropping A-bombs saved millions of lives in a long run? I don't think so. It killed civilians indiscriminatory and affected generations of lives and contaminated the area for decades. Plus it started the production of whole nuclear weapons.

    One of the reasons why Kyoto has become a world-famous tourist destination is that other major cities were bombed with atomic bombs and incendiary bombs and burned without a trace. Since it also targeted civilian houses (which was a violation of international law and a war crime), most of the houses, shrines and castles that typify Japanese culture were burned down. If the US were only aiming at the facilities of the Japanese military, Japan would have been a country full of historical buildings like Kyoto.
    It should not be aimed at the general public…

    People should know how necessary dropping these bombs were, the emperor Hirohito was willing to throw every man woman and child at the Americans, hard to imagine and I know it sounds crazy but dropping them bombs was a far less cost of lives then allowing millions to die because of Hirohito's pride, I've got about 1000 hours of book reading on the subject from documentation and intelligence to renowned author's, trust me it was a gamble but it paid off because Japan surrendered.

    • @lurkmerchant
      @lurkmerchant Před 8 měsíci +2

      Japan was already discussing about the surrender. Even though I don't believe that 100%, that's the reason there are people who question about the necessity of dropping A-bombs.
      After all, Hirohito was just a puppet of the military government. Emperor said that he thought general Tojo was the only one who could stop the army from going further into the war, but he obviously didn't, or couldn't. He was surrounded by too many anti-american, pro-war group in the military.
      Emperor Hirohito's crime was that he didn't do anything to stop the war, not to start the war.
      Sound familiar doesn't it? It happens everywhere and everyday. People stepping into politics and police force with all the good intentions and getting corrupted after few years.
      You'd be working in a company or a shop, talking to your management to change something but nothing gets done, until something drastic happens.
      Sure, a-bombs were dropped for a good reason. But it's nothing to feel great about. We should all see it as a lesson to not use missiles and nuclear weapons against anyone ever again.
      But... humans have a habit of repeating mistakes.
      Our mentality never really changes, and fundamental issues remain unsolved.
      With climate change, cyber crimes, space waste and all the issues that we should ask be working together, instead humans are still
      killing each other under the name of defence and rights.
      Pathetic.
      And, I'm telling you, no amount of researching will show what really happened. Both me and you are talking based on our own side of research, but like on textbook and education, there's always some agenda, or something missing or warped. You don't know unless you see the fact for yourself.
