    There is mentioning of it in WikiPedia: http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Japanese_atomic_program

    Under "Atomic program of the Japanese Navy"

    Apparently it had passed the prototyping/testing phase, they mention.

    later,

    At this point I am pretty much convinced that "moq" is none other than AnthonyCea. No, I do not have a source for this. The posts just match the MO.

    Anyway..

    Innocent? Wait... someone remind me again who bombed Peral Harbor. Was it George Bush?


    The U.S. was in Vietnam to help the peace loving people of Vietnam protect themselves against the murdering Communists. Due to Communist activities here at home, we lost the war and that led to the deaths of hundreds of thousands of Vietnamese and other Asians at the hands of the bloodthirsty Communist regime.


    Who could be so stupid as to attempt to rewrite history twice in one post? Is that you Anthony?

    That's painting a pretty rosy view of things. The US was in Vietnam to prevent the spread of Communism as outlined in the Truman doctrine. The US wouldn't have given a crap about the Vietnamese if is wasn't for Communist involvement.

    Can you ever make a sentence without badmouthing the US or sneaking in something to defame the character of the American people?

    I hardly think it's defaming the character of anyone, if that's the way you want to look at it then fine, just pointing out the real reasons for the war.
    There are and always have been plenty of problems in Africa but I don't see anyone desperate to dive in and help out there. I can't really think of a single country that's gone to war where it hasn't been in self-interest in some shape or form, otherwise it just wouldn't make sense to do so.

    I wonder why that is, in Amsterdam, everyone I've met from Britain seemed to know what America and Americans are all about, some of them have never even been here. What's up with all this "you Americans this", "you Americans that" anyways?

    Edit ...
    Correction Added: no, not everyone from Britain I've met ... half of the ones I've met were cool, the other half couldn't wait to make some sort of bad remarks about the US any chance they could get ...

    Mike, I'm not condemning what the US did, someone had to stand up to the Communists, I was just pointing out that was the reason for going to war, not to help the 'peace loving people of Vietnam'

    If the US went to war every time a peace loving nation was threatened then they'd be pretty busy and the President would get booted out pretty quickly.

    As I said NO country goes to war unless it's out of some kind of self interest.

    Well, I do believe that it's not all about self interest. I don't think that the UK is doing everything out of self interest either.

    Actually it was the French involvement (and slaughter) that brought the US in.

    IMO,
    US could have done big favor to herself if it didn't go to Vietnam. Communism would fall by itself. Too much artificial philosophy in it. There is much bigger thread to the world peace and it is in the form of religion. People need to get educated about it. They need to have access freely to other religions and spiritual teachings to learn more about "the world beyond". The world need to do something about the 100's of millions of women suppressed, and abused with the "blessing" of their religion.
    dsp
    Hope one day they'll have their freedom and equal rights.

    So the US were protecting French colonial interests? Why did the US help out in the Falklands then? Or countless other colonial wars such as Algeria that didn't interest them? Why was Vietnam special apart from Communist involvement?

    That is a very true statement, because the area would still be a peaceful French Colony.

    Kinda like firefighters don't care about non-burning buildings. :p

    I'm stipulating that it was because the involvement was Communist, if it had been a right wing military coup then nothing would have been done.
