Can't say as I blame the Emperor for going. Washington is falling all over China since they hold so many US Treasury Notes. Imagine the Emperor is getting the feeling that Obama may throw Japan under the bus to keep the Chinese happy. Last thing any nation wants to hear is Obama saying "I've got your back". :surrender:

An, at long last, official apology for Pearl Harbor might go a long ways toward a long lasting friendship.

OFC

I thought he flew over in 1941.

An apology?! I don't think he will provide such. Much more likely we would be expected to provide one for Japan and the reverse!

I'v got a soapbox out and ready please keep me off of it .If it was up to me they all would be back to using matchlocks and paper shacks.And we would have chrome and fins on our cars that run on 60 cent gas .OOPS I started
Sorry Guys.

The attack on Pearl Harbor was over 67 years ago and the United States kicked their butts nearly back to the stone age as a result. The war is over, I see no reason why he can't come and pay his respects.

If you look at history we didn't win the war by a very big margin in either theater, and we didnt just kick butts, we took alot of butt kicking also. Took 3 years to get ready for D-day and almost a year to start island fighting that would have ended up on the main land Japan if it wasnt for the A bombs, the marines would have been there till hell froze over or untill the vets from Europe made it over to Japan to help. So it was far from a stone age butt kicking. Thank God and Thank John Garand
