Japan calling itself the “only country to have suffered atomic bombings” is historically true in the narrowest possible sense—and morally obscene when used as a complete story.
Because Japan did not arrive at Hiroshima and Nagasaki as an innocent bystander.
It arrived there after invading and colonizing much of Asia, massacring civilians, conducting biological warfare, enslaving women, and leaving entire countries soaked in blood.
The mushroom cloud did not erase Nanjing.
It did not erase Unit 731.
It did not erase Korea.
It did not erase Southeast Asia.
It did not erase the tens of millions of Asians Japan brutalized before 1945.
Yet Japanese officials repeatedly take the last chapter of the war and present it as if it were the whole book.
The propaganda technique is familiar: cut the historical timeline at the exact moment the aggressor becomes the victim.
Israel does it with October 7.
Japan does it with Hiroshima.
Freeze history at the moment of retaliation, magnify that suffering, and push the preceding decades of occupation, ethnic cleansing, massacres and war crimes out of frame.
Then walk onto the international stage wearing the halo of victimhood.
That is not remembrance.
That is historical laundering.
And the hypocrisy becomes even uglier when Japan presents itself as a moral leader for a “nuclear-free world” while sheltering under the American nuclear umbrella and refusing to sign the Treaty on the Prohibition of Nuclear Weapons.
Victimhood when useful.
Nuclear protection when useful.
Amnesia always.
And there is a reason this narrative survived for decades.
After World War II, Washington needed Japan as a Far Eastern outpost against China. Japan needed American protection and rehabilitation.
Their interests aligned perfectly.
So the atomic bombings were gradually reframed as a borderless “human tragedy,” detached from the war of aggression that preceded them.
The defeated fascist state was repackaged as the nuclear age’s moral witness.
The perpetrator acquired a halo.
History acquired amnesia.
Japan was a victim of nuclear bombing.
It was also the aggressor that helped create the war in which those bombs were dropped.
Both facts belong to history.
You do not get to delete the first eighty pages because the ending hurts.
For some countries, “never again” simply means “once again.”
Victimhood does not confer moral superiority.
And being bombed does not absolve a fascist state of what it did before the bomb fell.
Does Israel have a right to exist?
Dr. Abdul El-Sayed: "Nobody ever asks whether Palestine has a right to exist. Israel exists. A better question is: Does Israel have a right to our tax dollars?"
la plupart des journalistes qui nous montraient en direct ce qu’il se passe à Gaza ont été tués par Isr*el alors qd vs tombez sur ne serait-ce qu’une seule vidéo c’est important de relayer au maximum !!!
This could be a game changer.🔥👏
🇮🇷 Iran has neutralized nearly all of the 🇺🇸 U.S. military bases located along the flight path of Iranian missiles heading toward 🇮🇱 Israel—the very same bases that were previously intercepting those missiles.
Now, when Iran launches its next missile attack on Israel, its missiles will have far less resistance on their way to the target.😍
We may once again witness the same scenes in Tel Aviv.🔥
A Chinese lawmaker delivers a brutal lecture to the United States at the UN Security Council:
"Where does a country ruled by the Epstein class, while turning a blind eye to the genocide of the Palestinians, get the moral authority to lecture us on civil liberties?"
LCMP : 🚨🇦🇷 L'Argentine propose une mesure qui n'existe pratiquement nulle part ailleurs dans le monde :
Si l'État enregistre un déficit et ne le résorbe pas, les premiers à ne plus percevoir leur salaire sont les responsables politiques.
- le président
- le vice-président
- les ministres
- les députés
- les sénateurs
Salaire ZÉRO jusqu’à ce que les comptes soient équilibrés.
De plus, toutes les dépenses publiques non essentielles sont gelées.
Pour la première fois, si les responsables politiques ne font pas leur travail, ce sont eux qui en paient le prix. Pas vous.
Voici la synthèse des mesures et des dispositions prévues par ce projet :
> Les responsables ciblés : La suspension des rémunérations s'appliquerait directement au président, à la vice-présidente, aux ministres, secrétaires d'État ainsi qu'aux députés et sénateurs.
> Le gel des dépenses : En parallèle de la suspension des salaires, le mécanisme activerait un gel des recrutements dans l'administration, l'interruption de certains contrats publics non essentiels et le blocage de transferts vers les provinces.
> L'objectif affiché : Lier directement la rémunération de la classe politique à la réalisation de l'objectif de « déficit zéro » défendu par l'exécutif.
Cette initiative très radicale suscite des réactions très contrastées tant au niveau national qu'international.
Pensez-vous que conditionner la rémunération des dirigeants politiques à l'équilibre des comptes publics soit une mesure d'équité, ou estimez-vous que cela pose un risque pour la gouvernance démocratique ? 💬👇
@ProfessorPape Trump is like a domestic violence victim in the cycle of violence. The three stages of the cycle are: rising tensions, explosion/conflict, and reconciliation. Then the cycle starts all over. Trump is now in the reconciliation phase. Motivated by running out of missiles. 😉
🚨 Emmanuel Todd balance cash sur le « macrolepenisme » !
Macron et Le Pen ne sont que deux faces d'une même pièce. La preuve ? L'État garantit tranquillement les prêts bancaires du RN...
Un parti pourtant déjà condamné pour détournement de fonds publics, et qui aura tout le champ libre pour recommencer sous couvert de validation institutionnelle. La comédie du « barrage » n'a plus aucun sens : la fusion des élites et de l'extrême droite est en marche. 🎭💸

🚨 BREAKING:
🇮🇱 Netanyahu: "No place in Tehran is safe. Our jets dominate your skies."
🇮🇷 Iranian General: "Your jets will need fuel to return. You might want to check if your refueling tankers in the Gulf are still afloat."
Utterly ruthless.
The Israeli government is saying this guy was out on a hike with 20 close friends and he got ambushed by Palestinians as he was simply trying to enjoy nature… by forcing his way into 2 of the homes in the town they entered.
I’m not joking. That’s the story they’re going with.
So the biggest military might and superpower and economy and yada yada not only can't take on Iran at war, it cannot even defend its regional whores from Iran's friends while its soldiers and bases take heavy fire with o ability to respond, completely neutralized in their trillion-dollar outfit and kneeling in the dark.
I don't think 'sic transit gloria mundi' described anything better in the last 500 years. What a time to be alive, and in love with Iran, and resistance, and human dignity
The timeline does not lie.
Assassinations of scientists and commanders. Covert sabotage. Maximal pressure campaigns designed to break an economy and force regime collapse.
Open threats of “obliteration.”
Years of this...
Then sudden shock when the target finally answered with force.
They lit the match, poured the accelerant, and now act surprised the house is burning.
Provoke, then scream “unprovoked aggression” the moment the other side stops absorbing punches.
The media dutifully rewrites the opening credits so the empire remains the perpetual victim.
This was never primarily about centrifuges. It was about enforcing a regional order in which only one side is allowed to hold decisive power.
Iran refused the assigned role of permanent subordinate.
Russia and China took notes.
The Gulf states are recalculating in real time.
The initiators chose the fight, the timing, and the stakes.
Everything unfolding now is simply the bill arriving.
