President Obama announced his Asia visit plan in November. There is no plans for his visiting Hiroshima or Nagasaki. This is very disappointing. It is more than the political points nor the appeals to the people in the world. Giving people the hope and taking it away just in front of them is not reasonable nor right. It is the false or not so false hope in the rationals in the modern society.
