The U.S. is much more subtle in it’s ;radiological weapons spreading potential death and illness to the world on the wind., while continuing to cover up and deny the health effects.

While we’re celebrating anniversaries, it’s worth mentioning that yesterday was the ninth anniversary of the day that President Bush ignored a certain memo…

Under the rising sun dirty yellow children play
And in the red pagoda mamasan is praying
Blood wasted saving face, ancestors are looking on
As they wave their silver samurai underneath the big gun
Hiroshima, no one could imagine
Not the victors nor the victims
Pitiful survivors nor the pawn of a man
who had the button under his hand
No one would believe it
God, God is on our side, he placed the power in our hands
To teach the yellow peril, this is Christian mercy
Harry, Harry give ‘em hell, give ‘em hell one more time again
We’ll show those axis powers how to make an oven [fry them]
Hiroshima, Nagasaki
Don’t you ever forget, don’t you ever fuckin’ forget
