In the movie Who Framed Roger Rabbit
The villain wants to destroy Toon Town
By spraying chemical weapons on it

Then buy the land at a cheap price
And build a highway through it

The Boshin War in 1868 and 1869
Was a hostile takeover of Japan

The Satsuma and Choshu clans
Worked in conjunction with the foreign invaders

Their ancestral turf is Kyoto and Kyushu
Both cites were spared from bombing campaigns in WW2

The Japanese government were in full cooperation with the American forces
Prior to a bombing the population of the city was removed

They were put in the temporary accommodations of a tent city in a rural location
Sometime later the population was allowed back in

When the fake war was over
American occupation was in charge of reconstruction

Now that Toon Town was destroyed
Huge profits were ready to be made

Hardly anyone was ever killed
The Japanese population kept growing during the time period

The bombing of Japanese cities at night was direct energy weaponry
The atom bomb is a cover story
There was no radiation in the aftermath

Older and much nicer buildings were targeted
To remove evidence of former advanced technology and craftsmanship

In cities like Nagoya Osaka Yokohama Kobe and even Tokyo
The destruction was very selective and there was light damage
Streets remained clean and there were no corpses lying around

There was no Japanese on the remote volcanic atoll of Iwo Jima
And there was no enemy living in the underground tunnels there

And there is no Hamas
In the underground tunnels of Gaza!
