Over 150 thousand civilians were killed, an additional 300 thousand were injured, and one million were left homeless. It was a massacre of civilians unprecedented in American history.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>But, in fact, one month before, on February 13, 1945, the United States and England carried out a horrific carpet bombing of Dresden, Germany, which killed ten thousand, or more, people.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That bombing, and the bombing of Tokyo, ushered in a new form of war for the United States.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>From 1945, the United States considered the targeting of innocent civilians for bombing to be normal\u2014making impersonal cruelty central to its new approach to defense.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The March 10th bombing of Tokyo was preparation for the August 15th bombing of Hiroshima with a nuclear weapon. It was technical training for that horrific attack, but it was also training for the soul of how to destroy one\u2019s conscience, numb one\u2019s mind, and engage without any compassion in the most ruthless form of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That ruthless form of war did not end with the conclusion of World War Two. In Korea, in Vietnam, in Iraq, and now in Syria, indiscriminate bombing continues. It has become the American way of war.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The evil spirit that was unleashed with the bombing of Tokyo 80 years ago is not something of the past. It is a monster, a Godzilla, that grows only stronger with each passing day. It threatens to drag the United States, Japan, and the entire world into a world war that will result in the extermination of humanity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That is right. The United States is seriously planning for a world war now, an act of insanity. No mistake there; We are preparing for a war that cannot be won, but that could kill us all.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>You may have noticed that lately Americans do not use the word peace anymore. It seems that peace is no longer a goal for the American government.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The vast majority of politicians and generals think it is just fine to push for war and to make immense profits off of the stock of military contractors that they own.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I am deeply, deeply, ashamed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>I cannot forgive such behavior. I cannot forgive those who see war as but a convenient way to stimulate the economy and to make their own private profits.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The United States has an obligation to recognize the criminality of the bombing of Tokyo 80 years ago, and to do so now.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>That means that the United States must end its addiction to war as the basis for its economy.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The bombing of Tokyo eighty years ago was a great crime. My deepest apologies to the Japanese people, and to the citizens of the earth, and my profoundest regrets for that evil action.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u6771\u4eac\u5927\u7a7a\u8972\u516b\u5341\u5468\u5e74\u306b\u5bfe\u3059\u308b\u8b1d\u7f6a<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u30a8\u30de\u30cb\u30e5\u30a8\u30eb\u3000\u30d1\u30b9\u30c8\u30ea\u30c3\u30c1<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u771f\u5b9f\u653f\u6cbb\u30bb\u30f3\u30bf\u30fc\u3000\u6240\u9577<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Center
