Leave it to President Obama: he never lets American military involvement pass by without turning it into some fable involving his version of morality.

On Friday in Hiroshima, Obama laid a wreath at the Peace Memorial in a solemn ceremony, flanked by Japanese Prime Minister Shinzo Abe.

He also embraced a survivor of the atomic bomb.

Obama then launched into a speech which could’ve been summarized in the words of John Lennon’s “Imagine:”

Imagine there’s no countries
It isn’t hard to do
Nothing to kill or die for
And no religion too
Imagine all the people living life in peace.

You may say I’m a dreamer
But I’m not the only one
I hope some day you’ll join us
And the world will be as one.
