Secondly, your attitude is different from Osama Bin Laden's how, exactly? Maybe some day you American cowboy assholes will grow up and realize there's more to life than having the biggest gun. And the 3000 dead at WTC had what to do with Bin Laden? They had invaded his country how? They had fired on his family how? Even if were to agree that the bombing of Hiroshima was wrong (I don't know about today, but I know how I would have felt in 1945), what does this have to do with the attack on the WTC? Does one wrong justify another? The issue is that the Smithsonian's newest facility it about aircraft history, not about the pros and cons of US military action. The Enola Gay should be treated as other aircraft on display without mention of the suffering and death caused by the bombings, nor mention of the other side of the same argument. |
