Tornado Alley (PROG)

brooklyn13, Isn't it a matter of moving on. As i said to you, i think, earlier, some move on in a more functional manner than others. Countries have to be pragmatic to move on successfully. Japanese leaders have proven they can. Vietnam has proven it could. N Korea is where it is because a demagogic ideologue is in control. Trump would love to be able to play that role.

"It’s strange that Japan never really held it against us. Also, 17 years after Germany surrendered, JFK gave his “Ich bin ein Berliner” speech so I guess the trauma of war is easily forgotten"

It doesn't mean "the trauma of war is easily forgotten."
