Sorry...

Japanese survivors of the atomic bomb want the United States to apologize.

How about this:

We are sorry your country attacked our country, Australia and countless other smaller, helpless countries across the Pacific.

We are sorry your country attacked and killed millions of Chinese, helping to create the monster they are today. A monster, by the way, that would gobble your little defenseless country up - if the United States didn't have its nuclear arsenal that you want to rid the world of.

We are VERY sorry that we didn't drop the bomb sooner, which would have saved millions of lives.

We are sorry that we also didn't drop a bomb on Berlin before millions died over there too.

Scholars put the number of deaths due to World War II somewhere between 50-75 million. Many of those deaths were due to famine and disease, that were caused by the war. Japan wasn't the sole cause of the war, but was already killing hundreds of thousands of Asians prior to attacking the United States, and ultimately millions of Chinese.

I'm sorry we didn't do something sooner.

"Those who don't know history are destined to repeat it." - Edmund Burke

I hope you accept our apology.
