uchimata da ne!
Shocks me the more I see this - 2.5 yrs in japan thus far.
Some site the Seiza sitting posture, others a tendency for women to appear more childish and therefore cute. I tend to think it is an affectation, a dainty meme if you will. Come on, how many uchimata males does one see here, the ladies have this thing sewn up!
It's annoying in it's insincerity if it is indeed a forced cry for innocence.
Answer 1
they were furious because the flag means freedom witch means for all.But they {the Japanese}.But they felt that it wasnt equal they were the onlyt ones that didnt have freedom
Answer 2
Flags only represent what we as individuals attach to them as symbols. Most US Americans see the US flag as a representative of the US political system of unity for the states and the freedoms granted by the US Constitution. Many other people in other places see the US flag similarly. However, not all people ascribe those values to the US flag. Iranians, for example, see the US flag as representative of international imperialism, repression, secret wars, and support for Israel and the previous Shah of Iran.
Japanese-Americans, during the internment period, did not see the US flag as a symbol of freedom, but as a symbol of illusory freedom. Ostensibly, the country in which they were living granted freedom to all of its citizens as equals. However, Asian-Americans had never been truly treated as equals prior to the 1960s and many saw the US flag as a representation of the White Leadership of the United States and the fact that they would be second-class citizens. When the internment happened, these feelings sharpened for many, who felt that the ideals encapsulated by that flag to most Americans were being violated right in front of them.
Surprisingly, the Japanese-American response to this clear violation of their rights and the principles upon which the USA was founded was not to riot or protest, but to actively seek to assist the United States military in World War II. To "prevent" the Japanese-Americans from being in contact with other Japanese, most Japanese-American units were sent to the Italian Front, where some of them earned the highest amounts of commendations and medals. After the war, the Japanese-Americans were released from the camps without any property of money from which to make a living. However, many of them were resourceful and able to sustain themselves in the following decades.

What was the code the Japanese sent to the Germans before attacking Pearl Harbor?
The attack was a top secret mission. No one except the attacking fleet and headquarters in Tokyo knew about it. Had anyone known about it, Germans included, they would not have believed that a large carrier strike force could cross such a vast amount of ocean without being detected. Secondly, no one would have believed that such a large force could get so close to a powerful United States Fleet WITHOUT detection...close enough to destroy it. Third, no one believed that the Japanese possessed the technically advanced torpedo and dive bombers required to do the job. It wasn't until AFTER the fatal beating at "Savo Island" that the US Navy began to stop underestimating the Imperial Navy.

Did Japan have valid reasons to attack Pearl Harbor?
- President Roosevelt had banned all exports of scrap iron, steel and oil to Japan. The reason for the embargo was the Japanese invasion of China. Japan had lost more than 90% of its oil supply. This crippled their economy and military.
- The belief that Western powers were hostile to Japan.
- The United States wanted Japan to withdraw from Indo-China.
- The US opposed Japanese expansion and Japan's demands were not being achieved by diplomacy.
- The Japanese were keen on expanding their empire and had to make a decision between surrendering or going to war with the United States.
- They wanted the US to acquiesce to their expansion into Asia.
- Pearl Harbor was the home of the U.S. Pacific Fleet. Japan did not want the U.S. in the war because the U.S at this time had the greatest Naval force. They concluded that if the Pacific Fleet was destroyed, Americans would feel demoralized and not want to fight.
- The belief that Japan could defeat the United States. They convinced themselves that a devastating attack would dishearten the Americans and lead to cracks in the fabric of the American society that would threaten its stability.
