    Default College kid's understanding of why Pacific War

    Friday my roommates invited some friends to our apartment. Somehow they had a conversation about the Pacific War. One of the friends said this:"I think the Japanese had a good reason to bomb Pear Harbor, because we dropped a Atomic Bomb on them as field testing."

    Should I say more.......

    Your friends are way ahead of many! At least they knew it was the Japanese! Did you ever watch "Jay Walking" on the Tonight Show?

    I thought the Germans bombed Pearl Harbor? And we attacked Japan because we wanted to.

    Actually, I'm not friends with any of them, all three of my roommates are random roommates assigned by the lease office.

    They really have it all wrong, after Lincoln freed the Hawaiians they revolted at the battle of Pearl Harbor, where they poured the Tea into the bay. Japan only got involved because when they found out about all the tea going to waste they planned Operation Desert Storm to oust Ho Chi Min from the North of Nam to the South. The Bomb was dropped on Tokyo to distract us from the Nazi's invading Iraq for oil. The bomb was nearly disarmed by Capt. McGyver but since the paper clip was not until 1899 they still managed to drop it from the Spruce Goose.
    we only got involved in the war when we heard that Weapons Of Mass Destruction were being stored in Berlin.
    Kids these days. What the hell are they teaching them nowadays?
