And I assume you wish the US to keep doing that because China is doing that and it's clearly working?

Finally, a proper vegan burger.

Apparently window awnings make a considerable difference.

Well at least Genocide Joe didn't become the president.

Instant noodles. I live in South Korea and there are gazillion options, from little more than a quarter(USD for your convenience) to almost $1.5 a pack.

Huge difference. I eat 2 packs per meal almost always and yes, it's often 2x more expensive but I'd just not eat cheapest ones.

All while raping 12 year old girls are totally fine.

Next time, get an automatic.

At least they won't be state level threat anymore.

Judging from all this I think the US will just kill the theocratic dictator Mr whoever and let Israel do what they want to do next, so there's no winning or losing here to the US at least.

You need to check your available space privilege.

Say the last part to Gazans.

And you think it's fine? What are you trying to say? Dead women and queers are better than dead everyone so don't let Iranians have democracy?

Because we think killing women and queers just because they exist is a big no no.

Hibernate.

What led to the rather tragic decision was the fact that the Japanese did not consider surrendering. Japanese high-ups used their elite pilots like one-off missiles rather than to surrender, and hoped that 100 million Japanese people would 'shatter like a jewel'(一億玉砕), rather than, you know, be alive.

Landing option the US had, Operation Downfall, also included bombing the coastal defense with nuclear bombs and literally obliterating Japan as a whole, so I'm not sure if that would have caused fewer casualties, not to mention it would have been a painstakingly long fight, ultimately leading to more painful exploitation for the victims like Korea and Southeast Asia. Even after the first bomb was dropped, they did not consider surrendering.

I am not saying that the bomb was the only way the war could have ended(although that was something I implied jokingly), and I'm not ignoring the fact that countless civilians died from it. But I don't think any other options would have had fewer casualties, especially from the viewpoint of one of their many colonies that was brutally exploited and suffered.

Well without that nuke us South Koreans would still be one of many Japanese colony so I'm very much all for it.

I thought the vote happened before the strike?

edit: Yeah, I definitely think it happened before the strike. It wasn't off by 2 votes either.

Language is not just about getting your idea across. It shapes how we think.

But to answer your question, if you speak English, no.

Don't argue with tankies. Making fun of them is very much enough.
