    Allied forces are not saints.

    No one said they were. However, it is Hashimoto that is making stupid comments, not former members of the allied forces. I see no reason to detract from this.

    Tell you what, Hashimoto, if and when a US politician makes the incorrect stupid claim, similar to the one you idiotically made, that US troops never abused any women during the occupation or if they claim that that abuse 'made things nicer and more relaxing' for the US troops, then come back with a comment. Until then, you should keep your trap shut already.

    Are they bicycle-bikes or motor-bikes? I do hope it's the latter. I have been seeing more delivery companies using bicycles with carts attached to the back - so much more environmentally- friendly and cost-conscious.

    Then, don't you hope it is the former, not the latter?

    I don't get the people complaining that the focus is on two Americans. The film maker is American and was interested in telling the stories of two American victims. It does not seem like a mysterious code to crack and it certainly does not seem like it lessens the suffering of any of the other victims.

    Perhaps less complaining and more compassion are in order here.

    I am more worried about hyperventilation.

    “It was one of those reoccurring stories that didn’t just come once,”

    They generally don't.

    No one is referring to the stress as a justification.

    I don't know. The article's quotes seem to be clearly blaming stress for it and that being used as an excuse is pretty close to justifiying it. Stress is not the reason for DV and it should not be used as such in my opinion. There are plenty of stressed people that do not go and hit their family members.

    Increased stress caused by coping with the aftermath of the tsunami of March 2011, or the fear of radiation from the crippled Fukushima nuclear plant, could be to blame, said the report from news agency Jiji Press.

    He has nothing creative to offer and is another example of how shallow and awful modern american media stars are.

    He is Canadian, not American.

    I don't know anything about the movie. I do think kids should not have to be anymore afraid than necessary when riding public transport. The ads were out of place and even with the tweaking are possibly still out of place. Perhaps the lines of what can be shown in a public space are getting too blurred?

    I don't know what the Un hopes to accomplish by this nasty display of nuclear aggression.

    I wonder if he really has anything to do with this. Perhaps he does. But, perhaps the generals in NK were not pleased with his statements to Dennis Rodman about not wanting war and they have decided to stear the course back where they like it to protect themselves. Who knows with NK?

    Oh l agree it was devistaring to those nations. No argument but were either a clear cut victory for the US. Iraq, it could be argued that the US was victorious. Time will tell. In Afghanistan definitely not..... Simple as that and I a third rate rebel group can stop the US what can a reasonably strong military do.

    The US won both wars initially. In Afghanistan, the US had not trouble with the initial war. They have had trouble with attempting to occupy and/or change Afghanistan. That is not because they cannot do it, it is because they are trying to be careful while doing it. The US has had very few casualties compared to the Taliban and Iraqi insurgence. It is just that the tolerance of the US population for any casualties (rightly so I think) is much less than that of the insurgents. The US has absolutely no desire to invade North Korea. They would just attack them and they would be very successful at doing it as they were in Iraq and Afghanistan. In addition, I highly doubt there will be any insurgents in North Korea anyway. Not when you have NK cittizens willing to risk their lives just to leave NK.

    Oh really! The same US that struggled with insurgents in Iraq, the same US that will leave Afghanistan with its tail between its legs.

    If you do not think the US's actions in both of these countries was devastating to them, you have not been reading the news nearly enough.

    Then, why don't you show some tolerance and let those who don't agree with gay "marriage" voice their opinions?

    I have not stop anyone from voicing their opinion.

    So what you are saying is, "I defend your right to express my opinion."

    No, I have not seen anyone suggesting that. Just that responding to opinions is also a part of free speech.

    Name-calling, bullying, and "majority rules" manipulation, is not part of debate.

    Let everyone have an opinion and opinions about opinions. That is real freedom of speech. FYI, the only name calling I have seen in this thread is those of those against this photo and what is represents.
