早在2009年12月8日，美國國會(huì)就已經(jīng)通過法案，紀(jì)念朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭60周年。我們呢？

應(yīng)邀去北京電子科技學(xué)院講"不戰(zhàn)而屈人之兵"，感覺其中關(guān)于美國紀(jì)念朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭50周年的材料還是10年前的。于是想看看10年過去，人家對(duì)朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭的態(tài)度有沒有變化。一查，查到美國國會(huì)早在2009年12月8日，就已經(jīng)通過法案，紀(jì)念朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭60周年。其中一項(xiàng)主要內(nèi)容，是要求美國國防部長"計(jì)劃、發(fā)展并執(zhí)行在2010年、2011年、2012年、2013年期間每一年的紀(jì)念朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭60周年的項(xiàng)目和活動(dòng)"。如10年前一樣，朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭60周年的紀(jì)念活動(dòng)在美國也將持續(xù)三年。也如10年前一樣，國會(huì)法案提出建立一個(gè)專門的紀(jì)念委員會(huì)來組織實(shí)施紀(jì)念活動(dòng)。

不知為什么，沒見到任何中國媒體對(duì)這條新聞的報(bào)道。

中國方面，見到有政協(xié)委員羅援將軍在兩會(huì)期間提出了應(yīng)當(dāng)隆重紀(jì)念抗美援朝60周年的提案。但是不知道是否獲得通過。

而美國則是以國會(huì)法案的立法方式，來紀(jì)念這個(gè)事件，并明確規(guī)定，紀(jì)念活動(dòng)要感謝并表彰朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭老兵；向老兵的家屬們的犧牲和貢獻(xiàn)致以敬意；突出朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭期間進(jìn)行的和軍事研究有關(guān)的技術(shù)、科學(xué)和醫(yī)學(xué)方面的進(jìn)步；提供武裝力量對(duì)美國做出的貢獻(xiàn)的信息；承認(rèn)美國的盟友在朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭期間的貢獻(xiàn)和犧牲。

而朝鮮戰(zhàn)爭，在美國曾經(jīng)被稱為"被遺忘的戰(zhàn)爭"。

在我們這里呢？

是毛主席英明決策出兵朝鮮抗美援朝，是我們的志愿軍將士在朝鮮戰(zhàn)場(chǎng)浴血奮戰(zhàn)，才換來了中國幾代人的和平，才贏得了全世界對(duì)新中國的尊敬。難道今天的我們，連紀(jì)念前輩功勛的勇氣都沒有了嗎？
