A peculiar hybrid of personal journal, dilettantish punditry, pseudo-philosophy and much more, from an Accidental Expat who has made his way from Hong Kong to Beijing to Taipei and finally back to Beijing for reasons that are still not entirely clear to him…

If Japan can deny her past aggression against China, can we also deny the 2 atomic bombs thrown on them?
By denying her past brutality inflicted against the people of China and South-East Asia and admitted the 2 atomic bombs in her textbooks, Japan is making herself as a victim.
Let’s take a look at the law of cause and effect. The effect of the 2 atomic bombs thrown on them resulted in dire consequences for the Japanese people and her economy. We empathised with them but what about the cause?
There must be a cause to have that kind of effect.

Huh, I think you are answering in the wrong topic Nan. Anyways back on to the issue of the pictures, I’m afraid that the top one with the shark is a fairly obvious photoshop.

Jing,
I saw this photo before. It is real but it is a dolphin (or whale?) not a shark.

I wonder if the photo site is blocked in China. I can’t get to it.

I would believe the surfer/dolphin photo is real. I’ve seen dolphins off Venice beach, and they actually surf in the waves! It was one of the most amazing things I’ve ever witnesses. There was a pod of them, and they would ride the top of the wave like surfers, leap out of the water in unison in some sort of dolphin water ballet. Truely stunning.
