tough when you break the law but the law is the law

Publicity that money just could not buy. And the Keystones fell for it by arresting them. Hiroshima would have been better, but Nagasaki still gets journalists' attention. First they ignore them, then they harass them ...

The atom bomb kills the soldier, the worker, the wife, the child, the unborn child and a new one the non conceived child. it corrupts the very fabric of life. The USA proved not once but twice that man can and will use all deterrents in his arsenal when he deems necessary. Having visited the Nagasaki museum it demonstrated to me that World war 11 will never end as each successive generation suffers from a new disease. Perhaps it also teaches that such a war entered into must be total to ultimate annihilation or Pyrrhic victory, a nuclear war gives few options.

"Dis is for Hiroshima". The Glen of Weeping was "swarming with Nips", from hip flasks.

Damned protestors, has anyone ever told them they can make their point without blocking the roads.

People have to work, ambulances, nurses, doctor and carers need to sek their patients and children (although not at the moment) need to get to school.

But no, you block the roads so you can bring a tiny bit of press to a bunch of aging hippies living in their own filth for the last thirties as part of a failed campaign.

Trident will out live the peace camp.

So we can comment on this but not on the previous story, what a disgrace!

What about all the allied prisoners of war who were effectively terminated by the Japanese?
Also all the lives saved by not having to invade Japan to end the war.

now where are those weapons of mass destruction???

why cant i comment on the scottish lassies being raped by the non-indigenous citizens???????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????????

given that the Japs attacked the USA, Britain et al i am not sure what the were expecting. general views are that had the Allies invaded the home island of Japan the estimated casualties among the Allies would have been c.1 million dead. and please do not give me the guff that the Japs were defeated and that they were loooking for an honourable way to surrender. the accepted view was that everyone would die for Hirohito and not enough did.

i wonder if the Japs and Germans had the use of the stomic bomb at the time would they have used them? Damn sure they would

i have no sympathy whatsoever with the Japanese (civilians or otherwise) due to the atrocities committed by the Empire of Japan on POW's and civilians in the occupied lands in the Far East. a clash of cultures perhaps but they wanted to die for their Emperor and their wish was granted. the islands should have been bombed back into the stone age.

if you fly with the crows you get shot with the crows.

dammmned it!! some got away!

#12> Where did you pick up the garbage you spout about the estimated million dead? Those who served in the Far East and like myself who were fortunate to have survived and was waiting to return home, were only too well aware why the bombs were dropped at that particular time. The Japanese were already defeated and in the process off preparing for total surrender when the bombs were readily dropped by the US on innocent men women and children. Their inhuman act was meant as a warning threat to the then Soviet Union who at the end of the conflict; emerged the stronger military power of the two.
Unknown at the time to the US; the Soviets were also on the verge off possessing and producing the bomb which was to upset the political ambitions of the US wild men.

The japs were about to become terroriststs thats why we nuked them.

First of all,please let me say we do apologize that those Japanese guys disturbed Navy. Actually,they are left wing and idealist who believe communism is the best and only way for people. A local police and navy don't have to make them free and arrest them as long as they want.

Please do not allow them to go back to Japan and enter U.K. Don't hesitate to send them to Iraq and show them the 'REAL'.

I was so surprised at this news. Sorry.

Agreed #'s 8 and 11.

The country is going under faster than the Titanic, but we've all got to pretend nothing's amiss.

Orwell's Thought Police have come to pass.

#'s 11 & 17 it's just the hootsmon jurno's showing their true colours(pink and yellow)so many of them seem to be closet leftists they can't bear us pointing out that the multicultural experiment has failed, and it's time to tell the guests to go home. PS if you read the print version yesterday you'll have noticed that there was no mention on the website of the 2 indian/pakistani men who recieved a derisory 6 years apiece for the racially motivated knifpoint rape of a prostitute, bet if the racial groupings had been reversed it would have appeared and commenting would have been allowed.
