Yesterday was the 70th anniversary of the United States using the first atomic bomb dropping it on Japan, many news organizations and individuals recognized this historic event. A post by one of my friends caught my eye “…why Japan had apologized for its wartime atrocities repeatedly, but the people of Japan had never received an apology for the dropping of two atomic bombs.” Should the United States apologize for the use of atomic weapons that ultimately ended World War II?

Absolutely under no circumstances should The United States of America ever apologize for the two Atomic Bombing in Japan. If these bombing did not take place we could very well be speaking Japanese or possibly German today.

Should you apologize to the bully who broke your bicycle and beat up your little brother after you kick his ass? I think not, paying his hospital bill was enough.

Hell, no! Wars are fought & won with the victor determining what happens next. Japan, with the help of the USA, has prospered into one of the world's greatest economies. THAT is their apology! However (comma) our Commoder-in-Chief will probably try to make an apology happen. He's done it for everyone else.....
