| Obama's trip to Hiroshima was not the one to apologize for the massacre committed by the U.S. imperialists and Abe's "invitation" was by no means to repent of Japan's continental aggression in the past. Obama was the star of the farce. He laid flowers before the "Cenotaph" for the A-bomb Victims in the "Peace Memorial Park" in Hiroshima On May 27 and spoke before a crowd that the U.S. has a "special and moral sense of responsibility" for taking the lead in eliminating nukes as it was the only state to use them. A scrutiny into his remarks meant that it was quite natural for the U.S. to become the biggest nuclear weapons state in the world as it allegedly used them in the interests of humankind. Obama talked rubbish that through his Japan trip he sent his message to the international community that he would build "a world without nuclear weapons." This was, indeed, a gangster-like logic that the U.S. should monopolize nuclear weapons by preventing other countries from having access to them. He claimed that his Hiroshima visit was the one not to make apology but to honor the memory of "A-bomb victims". The recent masquerade which insulted the justice-and truth-loving humankind touched off bitter derision of the public at home and abroad as Obama played a main role and Abe a secondary part. By inviting the sitting U.S. president to visit Hiroshima Japan sought to hype its image as the only "victim" of nuclear disaster in the world and use it as the golden chance of evading responsibility and reparation as a war criminal state. For this reason, Abe made public appearance before the announcement of Obama's planned Japan visit in which he was vociferous about the president's "achievements" made during the office. Moreover, Abe was busy with a "welcoming ceremony" and "dinner" for the president in token of his gratitude to Obama. His Hiroshima visit turned out to be a more disgusting charade as Obama and Abe did not forget to use it for finding fault with the DPRK's nuclear deterrence for self-defense. Through his junket to Hiroshima Obama laid bare his sinister nuclear war scenario not to hesitate to turn the DPRK into the second Hiroshima in a bid to realize his wild ambition for aggression. Obama held a joint press conference with Abe as the beginning of his Japan trip on May 25 at which he malignantly slandered the DPRK by asserting it makes such "provocation" as development and proliferation of nuclear weapons and it is the "biggest obstacle" to building "a world without nuclear weapons" and "threat" to Northeast Asia, the U.S. and the rest of the world. On May 27, he again showed his uneasiness, terming "north Korea a matter of deep concern". Obama justified the U.S. nuclear threat and blackmail in the A-bombed city, pulling up the DPRK. This brought to light the gangster-like U.S. imperialists' sinister intention to launch even a nuclear war in the future. Obama and Abe should bear in mind that Hiroshima can neither serve as fig-leaf for covering up the criminal use of nukes and inciting nuclear monopoly and domination nor set stage for starting continental aggression by giving full rein to a militarist chariot. Obama and Abe will never be able to escape curse and derision of all people. Military Commentator |
