Bin Laden Dead?

at least 2-3 of those people in the crowd had to be sick freaks who were only there to celebrate the incineration of japanese cities

really want to know how the herald sun got him, and why the age is so willing to give them the credit

herald sun is murdoch and therefore considers itself a vital part of the coalition of the killing

just as an educational aside

Wishful thinking?

LOL a those deep-in-thought Obama pictures, like this was a tough call to make. "Hmm, should we kill him? Or should we let him go? Hmm, must think on this ..."

Like, in this clip, Pee Wee is Osama, and the bikers are all Obama:

yes, that pic is wau

What was that Herald Sun pic? I cant see it for soem reason

Honestly, I had a hope that the civilized part of my brain was barely suppressing that the delay in the press conference was because they were busy getting a sealed box to Obama with bin Laden's head in it so he could hold it up during the speech.

"America, I told you I would kill Osama, and here's my proof!"

'please, become Wrath"

bet you anything americans were not entirely celebrating incinerating a few hundred thousand japanese, they were celebrating the end to the longest, largest and worst war the country had ever been in (since the civil). if you check the headlines, they don't really say "victory" or "we won" but "war is over." war weariness in 1945 was off the charts.

I take your point, but I'd also guess you've seen as much really beyond-grotesque anti-Japanese U.S. propaganda as I have - the V-J day headlines are largely WAR OVER / PEACE etc but the Hiroshima headlines are

there's nothing objectionable at all about the NYT headline.

are those meant to be anti-japanese headlines or am misunderstanding you?

they sound mostly horrified/awed to me

the subheader "steel tower vaporized in trial of mighty bomb" is kinda uhhh

is the third one, "Inside And Outside, Everybody Died" not showing up?

and no aero, it isn't

what was pittsburghs' status as a US city in the 1940s?

JAP 'PITTSBURGH' HIT <-- this is a bizarre thing to say

I don't really see anything exultant about those headlines

were there spontaneous celebrations the day of Hiroshima? Because if they waited until surrender I don't think you have a strong case here.

hah i totally missed the pittsburgh thing

anyway I'm not gonna ride this point, I don't think bloodlust is exactly a new phenomenon & I don't think Americans are especially more crass now than they were when you could play a "kill the jap" game at bars in 1944

to be fair "boom goes the dynamite" hadn't been coined yet

"Holocaust in Hiroshima Exclamation Point" is a bit much

US and their allies have no more excuse to deploy forces in the Middle East under pretext of fighting terrorism.

would be curious to see the context in which most of these quotes reside

also wondering when 'holocaust' began referring specifically to the concentration camps

what if they could prove that jews have horns, would it still be anti-semitic to say that? think about it.

killed me

i realize that this was before the word came fully to refer to what it refers to now, but one of those calls it a "holocaust"

also i mean communication w/ the japanese in the last months of the war is definitely kind of weird and fishy and full of odd translation errors and imperial hedging and even (after the bombings) an attempted coup of sorts but saying they'd been "actively trying to negotiate a surrender since april" is kind of disingenuous given what was at the very least an ambiguous reaction to the potsdam ultimatum.

that said i'm certainly glad i don't have that on my personal conscience.

also o____O at the pakistani taleban quote

anyway I'm not gonna ride this point, I don't think bloodlust is exactly a new phenomenon & I don't think Americans are especially more crass now than they were when you could play a "kill the jap" game at bars in 1944

this is obv true though and not just for america. i'm willing to forgive a certain amount of this in a country that's after all just a bunch of people. (especially in the case of ww2 when the surrender meant the boys were coming home.)

top 10ish

I think the general reaction Americans on the day of Hiroshima was more "holy shit" and "how the hell does one bomb do that?" rather than dancing in the streets.

when i was a kid i had this old hardcover book published by disney that was called OUR FRIEND THE ATOM (expanded from the disney TV episode of the same name which apparently they showed everyone in school) and had as its framing device/central metaphor a handsomely illustrated rendition of The Fisherman And The Genie, the idea being that the genie is powerful but also sickeningly dangerous, and the whole thing was on this (to me in the 1990s) utterly strange knife-edge between brisk cheerful disney-newsreel futurism and primal unnameable fear. it's one of the oddest and most affecting artifacts i've ever seen and i tend to assume it sums up the decade.

omg the atom is saidin

("the decade" being 1945-1962 i guess, or -1991, or -now, who even knows)

oh here

lol @ walt disney saying AND NOW, OUR EXPERT! and guy turning around from writing important equations on a blackboard and being like AZ VEE BEGAN AHR REZEARCH INTO ZEE ATOM

great description on that youtube video:

This is the very cartoon many of us in the 50's, 60's, 70's, and 80's watched in High School Physics classes.

The premise that there is something real called a nuclear atom, with orbiting electrons and a nucleus composed of protons and neutrons, was never tenable since it's inception.

The Nuclear Theory of the Atom has been debunked for a long time now. Dewey Larson has absolutely obliterated the historical construction of this fallacious and mind numbing theory in his Book: "The Case Against the Nuclear Atom" found in the link below, online and free to read. So, there is no excuse for anyone believing this idiotic model, nor quantum mechaincs, since is constructed upon this myth abd string theory because it is just deeper into the same quackademic bullshit. 10 to the 500th versions of this garbage theory about 1 dimensional strings and membranes as big as the Universe. LOL!

Walt Disney was a mason and intimately involved in the plan of the owners of the new world order to brainwash humanity with these kinds of disempowering lies which have enslaved us all to energy barons, war mongers and central bankers.

The atom will reside here.
